Brief Summary
Studies reveal association between dry conditions and decreased healing in wounds or any treatment. From these studies, it can be hypothesized that healing in mouth breathers after scaling and root planing in terms of bleeding on probing, gingival index, plaque Index, clinical attachment level, probing depth may not show as much improvement as in case of nose breathers. No study has been conducted till date to find effect of scaling and root planing in periodontitis patients among mouth breathers and nose breathers.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Systemically healthy individuals possessing ≥ 20 natural teeth.
- Chronic periodontitis criteria as defined by division of Oral Health at the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC) in collaboration with American Academy of Periodontology(AAP)-(Page and Eke 2012) i.e. at least two or more interproximal sites with clinical attachment loss(CAL) ≥ 4mm(not on same tooth), or ≥2 interproximal sites with Pocket Depth(PD) ≥5 mm(not on same tooth).
- BOP prevalence \>25%.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients on anti-inflammatory drugs or antibiotics within previous 6 months of commencement of study, or on any other regular medication or mouth wash, that is likely to influence periodontal status.
- Current or former smokers or use of tobacco in any form.
- History of treatment with statins, glucocorticoids, anticoagulants, phenytoin, calcium channel blockers such as nifedipine, diltiazem, verapamil, felodipine; immunosuppressants such as cyclosporine; bisphosphonates or any other host modulatory drugs during last six months.
- Non-plaque-induced gingival lesions.
- Patients taking drugs reported to cause xerostomia such as anti-cholinergics, anti-hypertensives, analgesics, sedatives, tranquilizing agents, antihistamines.
- A recent history of any other acute or chronic infection.
- Pregnant and lactating women and those taking oral contraceptive drugs.
