CHAPTER 24 Breath Malodor DA N IE L V A N S TE E N B E R G H E A N D MA R C Q UI R Y N E N Socio-economic aspects Clinical and laboratory examination Etiology and pathophysiology Treatment Diagnosis Conclusions Patient history Breath malodor means an unpleasant odor of the expired air, whatever the origin may be Oral malodor specifically refers to such odor originating from the oral cavity itself A term like halitosis is synonymous with breath malodor but is not always understood by the general population Breath malodor has long been a matter of concern There are references to it in the Bible and in the Koran Surprisingly enough, until recently breath malodor has not been a matter of much interest in periodontology, although its most frequent causes are plaque-related gingivitis and periodontitis Even the literature concerning this subject is scarce There was only one book on this topic in the nineteenth century (Howe 1898) and it was not until the end of the twentieth century that two more books were devoted to the subject (Rosenberg 1995, van Steenberghe & Rosenberg 1996) Joe Tonzetich from the University of British Columbia unfolded the biologic basis for oral malodor (Tonzetich 1977) but his observations received only limited attention from clinicians, even if oral or breath malodor is frequently encountered in any dental and especially periodontal office SOCIO-ECONOMIC ASPECTS A transient breath malodor is noticed when waking up in the morning in more than half the adult population (Morris & Read 1949) It does not deserve special attention since it is due to the xerostomia developed during sleep, i.e when salivary flow is reduced to a minimum This with the ongoing intra-oral putrefaction explains the malodor when waking up Morning breath odor disappears soon after the intake of food or fluid The intra-oral placement of a toothpaste containing zinc salts and triclosan has the capacity to reduce the odor for several hours, even in the absence of toothbrushing (Hoshi & van Steenberghe 1996) The real concern of the population is the breath malodor which remains during the day and which can cause social and/or relational problems Unsubstantiated press releases claim that breath malodor may concern as many as 25 million people in the US alone Everyone has sometimes experienced, when a person is speaking to them at close proximity, breath odor that is unpleasant if not unbearable Subjects who believe they produce malodor can adopt avoidance patterns such as keeping a distance when speaking to others or holding their hand in front of the mouth while speaking There is also a tendency to constantly use rinses, sprays, chewing gums or pills to mask the breath odor, although many such items have no effect whatsoever or at least no lasting effect Even more disturbing is the fact that a number of subjects imagine they have breath malodor when they may not have This imaginary breath odor, also called halitophobia (Oxtoby & Field 1994), has been associated with obsessive-compulsive disorders or hypochondria It has even led to suicide (Yaegaki 1995) There are well-established personality disorder questionnaires such as the SCL-90 (Derogatis et al 1973) which allow the clinician to assess the tendency for illusionary breath malodor among those where no objective diagnosis of breath malodor can be made (Eli et al 1996) For such patients, the presence of a psychologist/psychiatrist at the multidisciplinary malodor consultation is essential Epidemiological investigations concerning breath malodor are rare There is a large-scale Japanese study involving more than 2500 subjects aged 18 to 64 years in which the malodor was measured by a portable sulfide monitor (see section on diagnosis later in this chapter) at several times during the day The volatile sulfur components reached high levels several hours BREATH MALODOR • 513 after food intake and increased with age, tongue coating and periodontal inflammation About one out of four subjects exhibited volatile sulfur components ( VSC) values higher than 75 ppb, which is considered the limit for social acceptance Thus one can conclude that the socio-economic impact of breath malodor is considerable ETIOLOGY AND PATHOPHYSIOLOGY Findings from different investigations have documented that the vast majority of causes of malodor relate to the oral cavity, with gingivitis (Persson et al 1989, 1990), periodontitis (Yaegaki & Sanada 1992a) and tongue coating (Yaegaki & Sanada 1992b) as predominant factors On the other hand, since more than 90% of the population suffers from gingivitis and periodontitis, there is a risk that such plaque-related inflammatory conditions are always considered to be the cause, while in fact more important pathologies, such as a hepatic or renal insufficiency or a bronchial carcinoma, may be the main etiological factor In a multidisciplinary breath odor clinic, it appeared that 87% of the etiologies were intra-oral, 8% in the oto-rhino-laryngological field and 5% from elsewhere in the body or unknown (Delanghe et al 1997) Members of the oral anaerobic microbiota, especially species such as Treponema denticola, Porphyronrrnras gingivalis and Prevotella intermedia, can produce hydrogen sulfide and methylmercaptan from L-cysteine or serum (Tonzetich 1977), i.e proteins which are consistently present in the oral cavity and in the crevicular fluid Chromatography (see section on diagnosis later in this chapter) revealed that crevicular fluid contains hydrogen sulfide, methylmercaptan and also dimethyl sulfide and even dimethyl disulfide (Coil 1996) When deep pockets are present the relationship with methylmercaptan/HZS increases (Coil 1996) One should never forget that many components besides sulfide components, e.g diamines (putrescine, cadaverine) in the crevicular fluid and in saliva can be malodorous (Goldberg et al 1995) It is important to realize that the latter odor-inducing components cannot be detected by a portable sulfide monitor (see section on diagnosis later in this chapter), which is often used in breath odor consultations All such malodor-inducing components can only be perceived when they become volatile This means that as long as they are dissolved in the saliva, they will not be expressed – just as a perfume only evaporates when the skin becomes dry This explains why xerostomia reveals a strong breath malodor, which otherwise might only be a faint odor While on the one hand periodontitis favors the production of malodorous components, the latter may in their turn play a role in the ongoing periodontitis Volatile sulfur components, such as methylmercaptan, enhance the interstitial collagenase production, the IL-1 production by mononuclear cells and the cathepsin B production (Lancero et al 1996, Ratkay et al 1996) and thus mediate connective tissue breakdown Brunette et al (1996) found that human gingival fibroblasts grown in vitro showed an affected cytoskeleton when exposed to CH3SH The same gas altered cell proliferation and migration These potent biologic effects can be blocked by Zn", at least for the influence of VSC on protein synthesis The tongue dorsum, because of its large surface, is a prominent host for products that can cause malodor Desquamated cells, food remnants, bacteria, etc accumulate on the tongue and putrefy under the action of bacteria (Bosy et al 1994) There is six times more tongue coating in patients with periodontitis than in subjects with a healthy periodontium (Yaegaki & Sanada 1992b) Saliva plays a predominant role in the control/expression of malodorous components After drying, sulfur and non-sulfur-containing gases such as cadaverine, skatole, indole, etc are released (Kleinberg & Codipilly 1995) The oral microbiology involved in VSC production is well identified; Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia, Fusobacteriurn nucleatum, Porhyromonas endodontalis, Prevotella loesclrii, Haemophilus para influenzae, Treponema denticola, Enterobacter cloacae and many others have been associated with malodoros gas production (Persson et al 1990, Kleinberg & Codipilly 1995, Niles & Gaffar 1995) The above are members of the oral microbiota, are anaerobic and are Gram-negative The ear-nose-throat causes include chronic pharyngitis, purulent sinusitis and postnasal drip The latter, rather frequent condition is associated with regurgitation oesophagitis and is perceived by patients as a liquid flow in the throat which originates from the nasal cavity (Rosenberg 1996) Ozena, which is an atrophic condition of the nasal mucosa with the appearance of crusts, leads to a very strong breath malodor but is a rare disease Pulmonary causes include chronic bronchitis, bronchiectasis, and bronchial carcinoma (Lorber 1975, McGregor et al 1982) Gastro-intestinal tract causes include: • The Zenker diverticle: the accumulation of food and debris in the pouch of the esophagus, not separated from the oral cavity by any sphincter, can cause a significant breath odor (Crescenzo et al 1998) • A gastric hernia can, especially when reflux esophagitis occurs, lead to a disturbing breath odor Otherwise, the stomach never causes breath malodor, contrary to a common opinion among the public and even some clinicians (Norfleet 1993) • Intestinal gas production can also play a role, probably because some gases such as dimethylsulfide are poorly resorbed by the intestinal endothelium and when transported by the blood they can reach 514 • CHAPTER 24 Fig 24-1 The periodontologist, the oto-rhino-laryngologist and the psychologist listen to the patient Fig 24-2 Two calibrated judges evaluate the expired air and com pare their rating the lung tissue and be exhaled in the breath air ( Suarez et al 1999) Other systemic causes (Leopold et al 1990, Preti et al 1995) of breath malodor include renal (uremia) ( Simenhoff et al 1977), pancreatic (acetone) (Booth & Ostenson 1966) and liver (ammonium) (Chen et al 1970) insufficiencies which appear as breath malodors with different characteristics that can be detected by experienced clinicians Some medications such as metronidazole can by themselves cause some breath malodor Periodontologists should keep these possible nonoral causes in mind Their role may be masked to the clinician by the fact that a patient with such a disease may also present, as the vast majority of adults do, with gingivitis or periodontitis DIAGNOSIS Patient history There is a saying "Listen to the patient and he will tell you the diagnosis" This is very true for patients with breath odor complaints Besides what is spontaneously told, the clinician should question about the frequency of odor (e.g does it happen only some weeks), the time of appearance within the day (e.g after meals, which can indicate a hernia), whether others (non-confidants) have identified the problem ( imaginary breath odour?), what kind of medications are taken, whether dryness of the mouth is noticed, etc (Fig 24-1) Several of the points retrieved from this case history, which because of the emotional character of the matter cannot be obtained by a written questionnaire, must be used in the (differential) diagnosis of the problem BREATH MALODOR • 515 Fig 24-3 Nasal examination should be done routinely when the air expired through the nose is malodorous Fig 24-4 The oropharyngeal air is sampled by an electronic apparatus which measures the volatile sulfur components Clinical and laboratory examination causing the problem The judge will smell a series of different air samples (Fig 24-2): Organoleptic Even though some instruments are now available, the best method in the examination of breath malodor is still the organoleptic assessment made by a judge, who has been tested and calibrated for his/her smelling acuity This testing is done by determining the threshold level for detecting a series of dilutions of a malodorous compound such as isovaleric acid The discrimination power of the judge is evaluated by presenting to him/her a series of odors for identification (Doty et al 1984) The use of any fragance, shampoo or body lotion, and smoking, alcohol consumption or garlic intake are strictly forbidden 12 hours before the assessment is made This involves both the patient and the judge The judge will not wear rubber gloves, the odor of which may interfere with the organoleptic assessments Assessments should be performed at several appointments on different days, since breath odor fluctuates dramatically from one day to the next The patient should be encouraged to bring a confidant to the consultations to help him/her identify the odor • Oral cavity odor: the subject opens his/her mouth and refrains from breathing; the judge places his nose close to the mouth opening • Breath odor: the subject breathes out through the mouth; the judge smells both the beginning (determined by the oral cavity and systemic factors) and the end (originating from the bronchi and lungs) of the expired air • Tongue coating scraping: the judge smells the tongue scraping and also presents it to the patient or the accompanying confidant to evaluate whether they associate the smell from the scraping with the malodor complaint • Breath odor when breathing out through the nose: when the air expired through the nose is malodorous, but the air expired through the mouth is not, a nasal/paranasal etiology should be suspected In the oro-pharyngeal examination, the clinician must look for inflammation of the gingiva, or in the mucosa under a prosthesis Fresh extraction wounds or inter- 516 • CHAPTER 24 dental food entrapment can cause breath malodor The pharynx should be thoroughly inspected for the presence of inflamed tonsils The tonsils often present with crypts which may harbor anaerobic bacteria, pus and even calculus (tonsilloliths) Less obvious for a dentist is the examination of the nostrils, although this is essential if the breath malodor is noticed more clearly when the subject breathes out through the nostrils (Fig 24-3) Portable volatile sulfide monitor This is an electronic device that aspirates the air of the mouth or expired air through a straw and analyses the concentration of H2S (hydrogen sulfide) and CH3SH ( methylmercaptan), without discriminating between the two (Fig 24-4) It can also be used to measure the headspace above incubated saliva (Rosenberg et al 1991) The monitor is good for the detection of hydrogen sulfide but less good for methyl mercaptan It needs regular calibrations It should be stressed that this machine will not detect malodorous components such as cadaverine, putrescine, urea, indole, skatole and several others which have been described in salivary headspace ( Kostelc 1981) Cadaverine (produced by bacteria through decarboxylation of lysine to counteract the unfavorable acidic growth conditions during glycolysis) and putrescine (from decarboxylation of ornithine or arginine) are both diamines the level of which in air expired from the mouth does not, evidence shows, correlate with VSC scores (Goldberg et al 1994) but does correlate to a certain extent with tongue coating and/or periodontitis Gas chromatography This can analyse air or incubated saliva or crevicular fluid for any volatile component (Goldberg et al 1994) Some hundred components were isolated, and mostly identified, from saliva and/or tongue coating, from ketones to alkanes and from sulfur-containing compounds to phenyl compounds (Claus et al 1996) Gas chromatography is only available in specialized centers and for identifying non-oral causes such as intestinal (Suarez et al 1999) or bronchial/pulmonary causes TREATMENT An etiologic treatment is to be preferred The treatment of oral malodor consists of the elimination of the pathology present, such as deepened and inflamed periodontal pockets and/or tongue coating If another underlying disease is suspected, or if clinical experts in the different disciplines (internal medicine, periodontology, ENT, psychology, etc.) are not available, it is possible to rapidly (within 1-2 weeks) make a differential diagnosis by performing a full-mouth onestage disinfection of the oro-pharynx, including the use of chlorhexidine spray to deal with the pharynx ( Quirynen et al 2000) Since all oral diseases which cause malodor relate to microorganisms, this onestage professional approach reinforced by stringent home care will dramatically reduce the oro-pharyngeal microbiota and the putrefraction they cause and thus the malodour (Quirynen et al 1998) If the symptoms not disappear, the patient should be referred to a specialized multidisciplinary center where gas chromatography can help in the differential diagnosis Masking of breath malodor should be distinguished from etiological treatment It is well established that zinc-containing mouthrinses have the property to complex the divalent sulfur radicals, reducing this important cause of malodor Thus it appears that the application of a zincchloride/triclosan-containing toothpaste on the tongue dorsum reduces the oral malodor for some hours (Hoshi & van Steenberghe 1996) Baking soda containing dentifrices (> 20%) confers a significant odor-reducing benefit for up to hours (Brunette et al 1998) The use of hydrogen peroxide rinse also offers positive perspectives (Suarez et al 2000) To deal with the tongue coating it appears that tongue brushing with chlorhexidine, be-sides oral rinses with the same antiseptic, reduces the organoleptic scores significantly (Loesche & De Boever 1996) Whether the beneficial effect of tongue brushing is related to the removal of bacteria and/or to the reduction of their substratum, remains an open question Hardly efficient are mints and other short acting " anti-breath" odor components Most of them have not been properly tested in a blind way against a placebo A recent review compared the efficiency of oral rinses, toothpastes and cosmetics for breath odor therapy ( Quirynen et al 2002) When dryness is at stake, any measure to increase the salivary flow may be beneficial This can mean a proper fluid intake or the use of chewing gum to trigger the periodontal-parotid reflex, which originates from the mechanoreceptors in the periodontal ligament of molar teeth (lower) and has the parotid gland as a target (Hector & Linden 1987) The presence of these molars is therefore crucial before advocating the use of chewing gum to enhance salivary secretion The pH of the saliva can also be reduced to increase the solubility of malodorous components (Reingewirtz et al 1999) Evidence shows that the effect is short-lived CONCLUSIONS Breath malodor has important socio-economic consequences A proper diagnosis and determination of the etiology allows the proper etiological treatment to be instituted quickly Although gingivitis, periodontitis and tongue coating are by far the most common causes, other more challenging diseases should not be BREATH MALODOR • 517 overlooked This can be dealt with either by a trial therapy to deal quickly with intra-oral causes (the full-mouth one-stage disinfection) or by a multidisciplinary consultation

CHAPTER 25 Periodontal Surgery: Access Therapy JAN L WENNSTROM, LARS HEIJL AND JAN LINDHE Techniques in periodontal pocket surgery Gingivectomy Flap procedures Regenerative procedures Distal wedge procedures Osseous surgery General guidelines for periodontal surgery Objectives, indications, contraindications Local anesthesia Since most forms of periodontal disease are plaqueassociated disorders, it is obvious that surgical access therapy can only be considered as adjunctive to cause -related therapy (see Chapter 20) Therefore, the various surgical methods described below should be evaluated on the basis of their potential to facilitate removal of subgingival deposits and self-performed plaque control and thereby enhance the long-term preservation of the periodontium The decision concerning what type of periodontal surgery should be performed and how many sites should be included is usually made after the effect of initial cause-related measures has been evaluated The time lapse between termination of the initial cause-related phase of therapy and this evaluation may vary from to months This routine has the following advantages: • The removal of calculus and bacterial plaque will eliminate or markedly reduce the inflammatory cell infiltrate in the gingiva (edema, hyperemia, flabby tissue consistency), thereby making assessment of the "true" gingival contours and pocket depths possible • The reduction of gingival inflammation makes the soft tissues more fibrous and thus firmer, which facilitates surgical handling of the soft tissues The propensity for bleeding is reduced, making inspection of the surgical field easier Instruments Selection of surgical technique Root surface instrumentation Root surface conditioning/biomodification Suturing Periodontal dressings Postoperative pain control Postsurgical care Outcome • A better basis for a proper assessment of the prognosis has been established The effectiveness of the patient's home care, which is of decisive importance for the long-term prognosis, can be properly evaluated Lack of effective self-performed care will often mean that the patient should be excluded from surgical treatment TECHNIQUES I N P E R I O D O N T A L POCKET SURGERY Over the years, several different surgical techniques have been described and used in periodontal therapy A superficial review of the literature in this area may give the reader a somewhat confusing picture of the specific objectives and indications relevant for various surgical techniques It is a matter of historical interest that the first surgical techniques used in periodontal therapy were described as means of gaining access to diseased root surfaces Such access could be accomplished without excision of the soft tissue pocket (" open-view operations") Later, procedures were described by which the "diseased gingiva" was excised ( gingivectomy procedures) The concept that not only inflamed soft tissue but also "infected and necrotic bone" had to be eliminated called for the development of surgical techniques by 520 • CHAPTER 25 Fig 25-1 Gingivectomy The straight incision technique (Robicsek 1884) a Fig 25-2 Gingivectomy The scalloped incision technique (Zentler 1918) b Fig 25-3 Gingivectomy Pocket marking (a) An ordinary periodontal probe is used to identify the bottom of the deepened pocket (b) When the depth of the pocket has been assessed, an equivalent distance is delineated on the outer aspect of the gingiva The tip of the probe is then turned horizontally and used to produce a bleeding point at the level of the bottom of the probeable pocket which the alveolar bone could be exposed and resected (flap procedures) Other concepts such as (1) the importance of maintaining the mucogingival complex (i.e a wide zone of gingiva) and (2) the possibility for regeneration of periodontal tissues have also prompted the introduction of "tailor-made" surgical techniques In the following, surgical procedures will be described which represent important steps in the development of the surgical component of periodontal therapy Gingivectomy procedures The surgical approach as an alternative to subgingival scaling for pocket therapy was already recognized in the latter part of the nineteenth century, when Robicsek (1884) pioneered the so-called gingivectomy procedure Gingivectomy was later defined by Grant et al ( 1979) as being "the excision of the soft tissue wall of a pathologic periodontal pocket" The surgical procedure, which aimed at "pocket elimination", was usu- ally combined with recontouring of the diseased gingiva to restore physiologic form Robicsek (1884) and, later, Zentler (1918) described the gingivectomy procedure in the following way: The line to which the gum is to be resected is determined first Following a straight (Robicsek; Fig 25-1) or scalloped (Zentler; Fig 25-2) incision, first on the labial and then on the lingual surface of each tooth, the diseased tissue should be loosened and lifted out by means of a hook-shaped instrument After elimination of the soft tissue, the exposed alveolar bone should be scraped The area should then be covered with some kind of antibacterial gauze or be painted with disinfecting solutions The result obtained should include eradication of the deepened periodontal pocket and a local condition which could be kept clean more easily Technique The gingivectomy procedure as it is employed today was described in 1951 by Goldman • When the dentition in the area scheduled for surgery has been properly anesthetized, the depths of the pathologic pockets are identified with a conven- PERIODONTAL SURGERY: ACCESS THERAPY • 521 Fig 25-4 Gingivectomy (a) The primary incision (b) The incision is terminated at a level apical to the "bottom" of the pocket and is angulated to give the cut surface a distinct bevel Fig 25-5 Gingivectomy The secondary incision through the interdental area is performed with the use of a Waerhaug knife Fig 25-6 Gingivectomy The detached gingiva is removed with a scaler Fig 25-7 Gingivectomy Probing for residual pockets Gauze packs have been placed in the interdental spaces to control bleeding Fig 25-8 Gingivectomy The periodontal dressing has been applied and properly secured tional periodontal probe (Fig 25-3a) At the level of the bottom of the pocket, the gingiva is pierced with the probe and a bleeding point is produced on the outer surface of the soft tissue (Fig 25-3b) The pockets are probed and bleeding points produced at several location points around each tooth in the area The series of bleeding points produced describes the depth of the pockets in the area scheduled for treatment and is used as a guideline for the incision • The primary incision (Fig 25-4), which may be made by a scalpel (blade No 12B or 15; Bard- Parker®) in either a Bard-Parker handle or an angulated handle (e.g a Blake's handle), or a Kirkland knife No 15/16, should be planned to give a thin and properly festooned margin of the remaining gingiva Thus, in areas where the gingiva is bulky, the incision must be placed at a level more apical to the level of the bleeding points than in areas with a thin gingiva, where a less accentuated bevel is needed The beveled incision is directed towards the base of the pocket or to a level slightly apical to the apical extension of the junctional epithelium In areas where the interdental pockets are deeper than 1030 • CHAPTER 45 application of different prophylaxis procedures Clinical Oral Implants Research 7, 64-72 Mombelli, A., Feloutzis,
