Summary

Human IL-21 is present in gingival crevicular fluid in periodontal health, gingivitis and chronic periodontitis. A significant increase in the concentration of IL-21 in gingival crevicular fluid is observed with an increase in the amount of periodontal destruction. Non- surgical periodontal therapy aided in decrease of GCF IL-21 levels in clinical gingivitis and chronic periodontitis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

non surgical periodontal therapy

and root planing (SRP) was performed in two to four appointments lasting approximately 60 minutes each under local anaesthesia (2% lignocaine hydrochloride with 1:2,00,000 adrenaline) using area specific Gracey periodontal curettes and an ultrasonic device. The treatment was concluded in 3 weeks. Within the duration of the study, all subjects received supportive therapy, which included professional plaque control and reinstruction of oral hygiene.
