Abstract

Background: Yogic stretching (asana) has been proven to have an effect on salivary Human beta‑ defensin‑ 2 (HBD‑ 2) concentration, which is an antimicrobial peptide and is an inflammatory marker in periodontal disease. Sudarshan Kriya Pranayama (SKP) is a part of yoga which involves rhythmic breathing. Hence, we aim to evaluate the periodontal parameters and to estimate the salivary HBD‑ 2 level before and after SKP program in periodontitis individuals. Materials and Methods: An interventional study was designed and individuals were divided into three groups: Group I – healthy periodontium, Group II – chronic gingivitis, and Group III – chronic periodontitis. SKP was the interventional tool. The clinical parameters such as plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), and salivary HBD‑ 2 level were analyzed at baseline and 90 days after the SKP practice. Enzyme‑ linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to evaluate salivary HBD‑ 2. McNemar’ s Chi‑ square, Paired samples t‑ test, and one‑ way ANOVA were used to analyze the results. P < 0. 05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Following the SKP intervention, the clinical parameters such as PI and GI improved significantly in all the groups (P < 0. 001); however, Group III showed a significant reduction as compared to the other groups. The mean baseline salivary HBD‑ 2 levels of Group I, Group II, and Group III were 91. 78 ng/μ l, 110. 22 ng/μ l, and 157. 63 ng/μ l which was further decreased to 95. 22 ng/μ l, 98. 22 ng/μ l, and 132. 88 ng/μ l, respectively, following SKP intervention (P < 0. 001). However, Group III had a higher HBD‑ 2 level at 90th day as compared to other groups. Conclusion: There was an improvement in PI and GI with a decrease in salivary HBD‑ 2 in chronic periodontitis patients following SKP. Hence, SKP can be considered as an adjunct to treatment modality in patients with periodontal disease.
