Advances in last two decades in the knowledge of etiology of periodontal diseases have provided a foundation for the use of pharmacological agents in the treatment of periodontal diseases. A number of antimicrobial agents which can be administered systemically and locally have been described. Since the late 1970s, a variety of local delivery devices have been specifically designed for use in periodontal pocket. The main objective of local delivery devices is to establish a drug reservoir in the periodontal pocket that could maintain effective concentrations at the site of action for longer periods of time despite loss from crevicular fluid clearance. In this article, various aspects of local drug delivery have been reviewed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
