Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Baseline radiographic evidence of alveolar crestal bone level at 12th month

    Radiographic evidence of alveolar crestal bone level was measured around each banded first molar

    Baseline to 12th month

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Change from baseline plaque index at 12th month

    Baseline to 12 month

  • Change from baseline gingival index at 12th month

    Baseline to 12th month

  • Change from baseline probing pocket depth at 12th month

    Baseline to 12th month

  • Change from baseline clinical attachment level at 12th month

    Baseline to 12th month

Study Arms (2)

Supragingival and subgingival scaling

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Supragingival and subgingival scaling group comprised of 15 orthodontic patients treated with routine full-mouth supragingival scaling and subgingival scaling only around all banded first molars. Parameters such as radiographic evidence of alveolar crestal bone level, gingival index, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level around the banded first molars and full-mouth plaque index were recorded as a change from baseline to 12th month.

Procedure: Full-mouth supragingival scalingProcedure: Subgingival scaling

Subgingival irrigation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subgingival irrigation group comprised of 15 orthodontic patients treated with full-mouth supragingival scaling and subgingival scaling only around all banded first molars followed by irrigation with 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate solution (Trade name: HEXIDINE), an antiseptic - antiplaque agent. Parameters such as radiographic evidence of alveolar crestal bone level, gingival index, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level around the banded first molars and full-mouth plaque index were recorded as a change from baseline to 12th month.

Procedure: Full-mouth supragingival scalingProcedure: Subgingival scalingDrug: Subgingival irrigation
