Study Arms (2)

Experimental

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Periodontal intervention in the form of scaling and root planing by: 1. ultrasonic piezoelectric scaler (frequency of 28-36 KHz) and 2. gracey curets (set of 7 instruments number 1-14) to remove supra and subgingival calculus on teeth, is completed in two appointments of 45 to 60 min, within 24 hours

Device: piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler (frequency of 28-36 KHz)Device: Gracey curettes

Control

NO INTERVENTION

No periodontal intervention in any form.

Interventions

Periodontal treatment in the form of scaling and root planing (SRP) is provided to the patients assigned to the experimental group, after baseline examination. Scaling is performed using piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler (frequency of 28-36 KHz) and root planing is performed using area specific Gracey curettes (set of 7 instruments number #1-14). SRP is completed in two appointments of 45 min to 1 hour, within 24 hours period.

Experimental
