Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler (frequency of 28-36 KHz)

Periodontal treatment in the form of scaling and root planing (SRP) is provided to the patients assigned to the experimental group, after baseline examination. Scaling is performed using piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler (frequency of 28-36 KHz) and root planing is performed using area specific Gracey curettes (set of 7 instruments number #1-14). SRP is completed in two appointments of 45 min to 1 hour, within 24 hours period.
