Novel Antibiotic-Loaded PEGylated Xerogels of Acidified Chitosan forPeriodontal Diseases
The findings of this study suggest that the formulated xerogels are well-suited for periodontal applications. The slow-release profile of DH from the xerogels offers a promising approach for localized treatment of periodontal disease, reducing the risk of systemic adverse effects. This data is valuable for dental practitioners and pharmaceutical formulators, providing a new avenue for enhancing periodontal disease treatment.
