Abstract

Background Despite the reduction phenomenon of asthma been found to describe the link between bacterial profiles and respiratory quality in children with asthma. Objective To investigate association between bacterial profiles changes and improvement in respiratory quality after periodontal treatment. Methods randomized into two groups. The treatment group was referred for dental plaque removal by oral biology dentist and guided to perform an individual oral health care for seven days. The control group was observed without intervention. Each subject was assessed for respiratory quality and bacterial profiles taken from plaque culture were used for statistical anayses. The study protocol was approved by the Medical Research Ethics Committee of Dr. Soetomo Hospital. Results Dental plaque control was performed in 18 of 36 children subjects receiving dental treatment showed a significant reduction bacterial profiles changes after periodontal treatment.
