Vitamin E supplementation modulates gingival crevicular fluid lipid peroxidation and antioxidant levels in patients with orthodontic tooth movement

The aim of this study was to investigate the levels of the oxidant and antioxidant changes in orthodontic tooth movement and the effects of vitamin E on these parameters. For this purpose, 50 orthodontic patients (aged 13–18 years) required non‐extracted treatment were divided randomly into the following groups: Control and Vitamin E. Same pre‐adjusted appliances were applied to all patients, and vitamin E (300 mg day−1) was given during 1 month in vitamin E group. Gingival crevicular fluid was collected and periodontal indexes were recorded at the baseline and after 1 month. Lipid peroxidation (LP) levels as malonyldialdehyde, reduced glutathione (GSH) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH‐Px), vitamin C and E levels were measured in the anterior and posterior regions of the dentition. After 1 month, orthodontic treatment LP levels increased in control group in both anterior and posterior regions in vitamin E group. LP levels also increased in vitamin E group in only posterior region. The level of GSH and vitamin C did not change statistically in control and vitamin E groups. Periodontal indexes did not show any differences in comparison with the groups.
