Summary

This study aims to evaluate the clinical results of non-surgical periodontal therapy performed with micro-instruments compared to traditional approach (standard curettes) after 6 months of follow-up.

The patients enrolled, subject to written informed consent, will be divided into a Test group (T) and a Control group (C) through a randomization process. Both groups will be motivated on the rules of oral hygiene, treated scrupulously and monitored monthly for 6 months, at the end of which the final data will be collected for statistical processing (in particular by analyzing the difference between baseline and after 6 months of the parameter "probing depth" or PD).

Conditions

  • Periodontal Diseases
  • Periodontal Inflammation

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Gracey micro-curettes

Mechanical debridement will be performed by means of ultrasonic scalers with specific thin tips and micro-curettes, in order to minimize trauma for gingival tissues.

PROCEDURE

Standard Gracey curettes

After local anaesthesia, non surgical subgingival debridement will be performed by standard Gracey curettes
