Factors influencing the outcome of non‐surgical periodontal treatment: a multilevel approach
Abstract
Aim: To investigate, by means of multilevel analysis, factors that may affect the short‐term clinical outcome of non‐surgical periodontal treatment. Materials and Methods: Forty‐one patients randomly assigned to two protocols of non‐surgical therapy were included. The impact of different covariates on the probability of “pocket closure” [i.e. probing pocket depth (PPD)4 mm] was explored using a logistic multilevel model. The impact on the final PPD was explored using a continuous multilevel model. Results: The logistic model revealed a significant impact of smoking (p<0.001), presence of plaque at the site (p<0.001) and location of the pocket at a multi‐rooted tooth (p<0.001). The model explained 44% of the total variability. Of the unexplained variance, 19% was attributed to inter‐patient variability. The continuous model revealed the same factors to be significant and an additional significant impact of interactions between the covariates. The R2 was 0.50 and the random slopes model revealed an increase in the variability of the final pocket depth with an increase in the initial PPD. Conclusion: Smoking habits, plaque at site level and tooth type were significant factors in determining the short‐term clinical outcome of non‐surgical periodontal treatment.

“Currently, millions of people worldwide are suffering from periodontitis, whereas the in-office dental interventions recently raised increasing concerns about the less satisfying clinical outcomes and drug resistance [6, 7].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
