[The use of general drugs other than antibiotics in periodontitis]

Outside of the antibiotics, numerous general medications are prescribed in the context of the treatment of periodontal diseases. It appeared to be of interest to study them. The international research on anti-inflammatory drugs will be analysed in the literature. An in-depth study will then be carried out on documents provided by laboratories which market products likely to be active on periodontal diseases in France. All the publications concerning Imudon, Piascledine 300 and Insadol will be more particularly analysed. The operative protocols, conditions and experimentation, as well as the results, will be studied as objectively as possible so as to determine the essential efficacy of one or nother product.
