Summary

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Hypochlorous Acid and Chlorhexidine as postsurgical antimicrobial agents in the treatment of severe chronic periodontal disease. The selected patients will be randomly divided into two groups of 16 each. Subjects in group I will undergo scaling and surgical root planing and will use mouthrinse with 0.05% HOCl for 7 days, after this they will mouthwash with 0.025% HOCl until day 21 and Subjects in group II will undergo scaling and surgical root planing followed by a rinse with CHX 0.2% for 7 days, after this they will mouthwash with 0.12% CHX until day 21. Null Hypothesis: There are no significant differences between hypochlorous acid and chlorhexidine in reducing plaque formation at 7, 21 and 90 days of evaluation.

There are no significant differences between HOCl and CHX in the elimination or reduction of periodontopathogenic microorganisms at 7, 21 and 90 days. Alternative hypotheses: There are significant differences between hypochlorous acid and chlorhexidine in reducing plaque formation at 7, 21 and 90 days of evaluation. There are significant differences between HOCl and CHX in the elimination or reduction of periodontopathogenic microorganisms at 7, 21 and 90 days.
