Brief Summary

The primary course of periodontal treatment is non-surgical periodontal therapy followed by surgical therapy, if required, with an aim to arrest ongoing inflammatory periodontal destruction along with reconstruction of lost apparatus if possible. There is no protocol established for completing scaling and root planing (SRP) in patients with generalized advanced periodontitis. In some cases SRP is completed in single sitting whereas in other cases supragingival scaling is followed by subgingival SRP in the next appointment. It is hypothesized that presence of reparative components near the base of the pocket could result in better treatment outcomes after scaling and root planning done in single sitting when compared to supragingival scaling followed by sub-gingival scaling and root planning after one week.

TEST GROUP

EXPERIMENTAL

INTERVENTION: Scaling and root planning (SRP) of two contra-lateral quadrants (randomly allocated) in single sitting with ultrasonic scaler, hand scalers and curettes under local anaesthesia.

Procedure: SCALING AND ROOT PLANING (SRP)in single sitting

CONTROL GROUP

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

INTERVENTION: Supra-gingival scaling followed by sub-gingival scaling and root planing of two contra-lateral quadrants (randomly allocated) in two sittings with ultrasonic scaler, hand scalers and curettes under local anaesthesia.

Procedure: SCALING AND ROOT PLANING (SRP)in two sittings

Interventions

SCALING AND ROOT PLANING (SRP) IS THE PRIMARY COURSE OF NON-SURGICAL PERIODONTAL TREATMENT THAT INVOLVES REMOVAL OF SUPRA-GINGIVAL AND SUB-GINGIVAL BIOFILM AND CALCULUS FOLLOWED BY THOROUGH ROOT PLANING.
