Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of probiotic supplementation and diet-supported probiotic use on periodontal clinical parameters in individuals with periodontitis. A total of 120 female participants aged between 20-60 years, diagnosed with periodontitis and without systemic diseases, were included in the study. Participants are randomly assigned into three groups: a control group (conventional treatment), a probiotic group (conventional treatment + probiotics), and a diet + probiotic group (conventional treatment + probiotics + personalized diet). Clinical evaluations are performed using measurements of probing depth (PD) and clinical attachment loss (CAL), while dietary intake is assessed using three-day food records. The collected data will be analyzed using SPSS 21.0 software, and a p-value \<0.05 will be considered statistically significant.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment

Participants in this arm received standard non-surgical periodontal treatment, including scaling and root planing, without any additional supplementation or dietary modification.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Probiotic Supplementation

Participants in this arm received standard periodontal treatment along with a daily probiotic supplement (1 capsule/day, containing 10⁹ CFU of Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis) for six consecutive weeks.

OTHER

Probiotic Supplementation + Personalized Diet

Participants in this arm received standard periodontal treatment, the same probiotic protocol as the probiotic group, and a personalized anti-inflammatory diet. The diet was developed by a clinical dietitian and emphasized high-fiber, antioxidant-rich, and prebiotic foods. Consumption of refined carbohydrates, added sugars, and trans fats was restricted.
