Interventions

Standardized motivation and oral hygiene instructions regarding the tooth brushing will be demonstrated to all three groups using modified bass technique and a standardized brush, medium bristled brush with toothpaste, the patients will be instructed to brush their teeth for 2 minutes with a pea- size amount of dentifrice twice daily. For interdental cleaning aids each patient will be instructed to use the suitable methods regarding the space between teeth. clinically for each patient to ensure that the patients understood the instruction sessions. Before receiving oral hygiene instructions and motivation, the salivary sample will be collected and clinical periodontal parameters will be measured at a base line visit then, after 3 weeks, saliva will be collected and the same clinical measurements will be taken.
