Summary

This clinical study investigates two different non-surgical periodontal therapy approaches in patients with advanced periodontitis and compares them with periodontally healthy individuals. Participants with Stage III/IV Grade C periodontitis are randomly assigned to either a single-session or a three-session scaling and root planing (SRP) protocol. Clinical parameters, gingival crevicular fluid inflammatory markers, and subgingival microbial profiles are assessed at baseline and during a 6-month follow-up period. The study aims to determine whether performing non-surgical periodontal therapy in multiple sessions influences clinical, biochemical, and microbiological responses.

Conditions

  • Periodontitis (Stage 3)
  • Periodontitis Stage III

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Scaling and Root Planing (SRP)

Full-mouth scaling and root planing (SRP) performed under local anesthesia, either in a single session or divided into three weekly sessions depending on the study arm. Standard oral hygiene instructions were provided to all participants.
