Menopause is typically accompanied by significant systemic and oral manifestations, including hormonal changes and increased susceptibility to periodontal disease, which may involve inflammatory biomarkers like aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and osteocalcin in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF). The study is aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of regular inoculation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) as an adjunctive treatment for menopausal women\u2019s periodontitis. Methods. Twenty elderly women with chronic periodontitis were split evenly into two groups by random assignment. Patients in group II (the research group) were given soft gelatin capsules containing PUFAs to be consumed directly once daily for 12 months, as opposed to group I (the control group), who received soft gelatin capsules containing some olive oil (placebo). Scaling and root planning (SRP) were used to address periodontal disease in all cases. Results. At baseline, six and twelve months after treatment, clinical indicators and AST and osteocalcin amounts in the GCF were noted. By the conclusion of the research period, all observed clinical measurements had changed significantly and improved. In addition, there had been a significant decrease in AST levels and a nonsignificant decrease in osteocalcin levels in group II compared to group I. Conclusions. Menopausal women with periodontitis who take omega-3 fatty acid supplements in addition to SRP have better oral health. Significant improvements in clinical indicators and a notable decrease in AST levels within the GCF were observed. However, further research with larger cohorts and extended duration is needed to validate these findings and explain potential mechanisms. This trial is registered with NCT06254118.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2024\/6997142","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,13]],"date-time":"2024-03-13T18:35:05Z","timestamp":1710354905000},"page":"1-9","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Nonsurgical Treatment of Periodontitis in Menopausal Patients: A Randomized Control Trial"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2024","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-0240-3430","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Hadir F.","family":"Eldessouky","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontics, Faculty of Dentistry, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia"},{"name":"Department of Oral Medicine and Periodontology, Faculty of Dentistry, Ain Shams University, Cairo, Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-3494-4728","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Magda","family":"Marie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Medicine and Periodontics, Faculty of Dentistry, Alexandria University, Bab Sharqi, Alexandria Governorate 5424041, Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/0976-7800.141187"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4317\/medoral.16.e440"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.21276\/apjhs.2018.5.2.26"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/0976-9668.166124"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cdtm.2015.02.006"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.maturitas.2009.03.002"},{"key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/2141-9248.117926"},{"key":"8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000431091"},{"key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0528.2004.00159.x"},{"key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/nu8090530"},{"key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/2249-4987.201401"},{"key":"12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.29252\/ijmr-040105"},{"key":"13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/biof.42"},{"key":"14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1631\/jzus.b1700063"},{"key":"15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jobcr.2018.02.002"},{"key":"16","article-title":"Study of clinical parameters in chronic periodontitis","volume":"3","author":"G.
