NCT03468595

Brief Summary

The aim of this trial was to establish the clinical efficacy of Listerine and chlorhexidine (CHX) when used as a cooling agent with ultrasonic instrumentation, on periodontal parameters and halitosis. Ninety patients with periodontal disease participated for the study. Individuals were randomly selected to a control and test groups. At baseline, all subjects completed a questionnaire and carried out an examination. Standard periodontal outcome variables were assessed. For both groups, the plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), pocket depth (PD), bleeding on probing (BOP) and clinical attachment level (CAL) scores were enrolled at baseline and after 30 days. Volatile sulphur compound (VSC) levels were evaluated by a Halimeter (Interscan Corp., Chatsworth, CA, USA) at baseline (T0), immediately after treatment (T1), and at 7 (T2), 14 (T3) and 30 days (T4).

Study Arms (3)

test 1

EXPERIMENTAL

The treatment of periodontitis was performed with ultrasonic instrumentation (Piezonmaster 700; Electro Medical Systems, Nyon, Switzerland) with CHX (Drogsan, Istanbul, Turkey, 0.2%) was performed at one session for once.

Device: ultrasonic (Piezon Master 700) performed with CHX

test 2

EXPERIMENTAL

The treatment of periodontitis was performed with ultrasonic instrumentation (Piezonmaster 700; Electro Medical Systems, Nyon, Switzerland) with Listerine (Johnson \& Johnson, Istanbul, Turkey, containing, 21.6% ethanol, 0.092% eucalyptol, 0.064% thymol, 0.042% menthol and 0.06% methyl salicylate) was performed at one session for once.

Device: ultrasonic (Piezon Master 700) performed with Listerine

control

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The treatment of periodontitis was performed with ultrasonic instrumentation (Piezonmaster 700; Electro Medical Systems, Nyon, Switzerland) with distilled water was performed at one session for once.

Device: ultrasonic (Piezon Master 700) performed with serum
