Brief Summary
The aim of this clinical study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of using perio flow adjunctively with mechanical instrumentation on periodontal parameters and halitosis. Sixty patients who presented with 4-6-mm probing pocket depth (PPD) were recruited for the study. Patients were randomly assigned to glycine powder air-polishing (GPAP) or control groups. For both groups PPDscores were recorded at the baseline and 1 month. Volatile sulphur compound (VSC) values were measured by a halimeter at the baseline, immediately after treatment, and at 7 days, 14 days and 1 month.

Study Arms (2)
test
EXPERIMENTALSRP was performed using routine ultrasonic (Piezon Master 700; EMS, Nyon, Switzerland) and hand instrumentation, glycine powder air-polishing (GPAP) was performed for 10 seconds per surface after the instrumentation (Air-Flows Perio Powder, EMS, Nyon, Switzerland) was applied using a Perio-Flows hand-piece connected to an airflow unit (Air-Flow Masters, EMS).
control
ACTIVE COMPARATORIn the control group, SRP was performed using routine ultrasonic (Piezon Master 700; EMS, Nyon, Switzerland) and hand instrumentation.
