Summary

This study aims to evaluate the comparative impact of chlorhexidine and antioxidant gel on postoperative biomarkers following SRP. By examining biomarkers related to inflammation, oxidative stress, and tissue healing, this research seeks to determine which treatment modality more effectively supports recovery and reduces postoperative complications.

Understanding the differential effects of these interventions on postoperative biomarkers will contribute valuable insights into optimizing SRP outcomes. Correlations between biomarker levels and clinical outcomes, such as periodontal pocket depth and clinical attachment level changes will provide valuable information on the clinical relevance of the findings. This comparison will also guide clinicians in selecting the most appropriate postoperative care to enhance patient recovery and long-term periodontal health.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Antioxidant gel

An intraoral gel containing Tea Tree oil (Tebodont®, Dr. Wild \& Co. AG, Basel) would be applied to the gingival pockets after scaling and root planing

DRUG

Antimicrobial gel

An intraoral gel containing 0.5% Chlorhexidine (PERIOPLUS+ FORTE, Curaprox, Curaden) would be applied to the gingival pockets after scaling and root planing
