Summary

Non-surgical periodontal treatment is a fundamental part of periodontal therapy,including supportive therapy. It has been proven to be efficacious in reducing inflammation, probing pocket depth and number of diseased sites in patients affected by periodontitis, often limiting the need for additional treatment approaches. However,despite being such a widely administered treatment, the effect of non-surgical periodontal treatment on patient reported outcomes has remained restricted to parameters such as pain and sensitivity only, with patient's perception of aesthetics remaining largely unexplored.

Focusing only on physical periodontal measurements, leaves the true impact of periodontitis as well as its treatment on patient's well-being largely under recognized. With the development of the periodontal aesthetics perception scale (PAPS), it is possible to assess the results in a standardized manner.Therefore, the goal of this study (prospective-interventional ) is to to assess the patient's self-perception of aesthetics using a standardized tool after non surgical periodontal treatment and how much of changes in aesthetics are perceived by the patient. This would be helpful in understanding and managing patient expectations. Also, utilizing a standardized tool would reduce heterogeneity bias by providing comparable data between studies for future research on understanding patient preferences.
