Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using sodium hypochlorite/amino acid gel, with or without cross-linked hyaluronic acid, as an addition to standard non-surgical periodontal therapy works to treat periodontitis in adults. It will also learn about the safety of these treatments. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the adjunctive treatment reduce bleeding on probing, plaque index, and periodontal pocket depth? What medical or dental problems do participants have when receiving these treatments? Researchers will compare: Standard non-surgical periodontal therapy alone Standard therapy plus sodium hypochlorite/amino acid gel Standard therapy plus sodium hypochlorite/amino acid gel and cross-linked hyaluronic acid ("Clean and Seal" protocol) Participants will: Receive their assigned treatment during one clinical session per the study protocol Have clinical measurements taken before treatment and at three months after treatment Be monitored for any dental or medical adverse events related to the procedures

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Probing Pocket Depth (PPD)
Probing Pocket Depth is the distance, measured in millimeters, from the gingival margin (the edge of the gum tissue) to the bottom of the periodontal pocket, which is the point where the soft tissue attaches to the tooth. It is measured using a calibrated periodontal probe at six sites per tooth: mesiobuccal, mid-buccal, distobuccal, mesiolingual/palatal, mid-lingual/palatal, and distolingual/palatal.
pre-operative and at 3 months post-operative
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Plaque index (Silness et Loe)
pre-operative and 3 months post-operative
Bleeding on probing (BOP)
pre-operative and 3 months post-operative
gingival recession
pre-operative and 3 months post-operative
Clinical attachment level
Measured at baseline (T0) and 3 months post-treatment (T3).
Study Arms (3)
Control group
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants receive standard care, including oral hygiene instructions, supragingival and subgingival mechanical debridement using ultrasonic and hand instruments, and brief irrigation with 0.12% chlorhexidine solution. No adjunctive sodium hypochlorite or hyaluronic acid is used.
Standard Therapy + Sodium Hypochlorite/Amino Acid Gel
EXPERIMENTALParticipants receive the same standard care as Arm 1. In addition, a 0.9% sodium hypochlorite/amino acid gel (Perisolv) is instilled into periodontal pockets with probing depth \>4 mm and left for 60 seconds before mechanical debridement. The gel application is repeated as needed until instrumentation is complete.
Standard Therapy + Sodium Hypochlorite/Amino Acid Gel + Cross-Linked Hyaluronic Acid
EXPERIMENTALParticipants receive the same treatment as Arm 2. After instrumentation, cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel (Hyadent BG) is applied to the treated pockets to promote healing and tissue regeneration, following the "Clean and Seal" protocol.
Interventions
Standard Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy based on the American Academy of Periodontology's guidelines: mechanical debridement with manual and ultrasonics
Participants receive the same standard care as Arm 1. In addition, a 0.9% sodium hypochlorite/amino acid gel is instilled into periodontal pockets with probing depth \>4 mm and left for 60 seconds before mechanical debridement. The gel application is repeated as needed until instrumentation is complete.
Participants receive the same treatment as Arm 2. After instrumentation, cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel is applied to the treated pockets to promote healing and tissue regeneration, following the "Clean and Seal" protocol.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Localized periodontal pocket with a probing depth ≥ 6 mm and a clinical - attachment loss of \> 3 mm (periodontitis stage III or IV; classification of the European Federation of Periodontology and American Academy of Periodontology);
- Patients who signed the written informed consent and is willing to cooperate;
- Bleeding on probing in more than 30% of the sites.
You may not qualify if:
- Medical history likely to affect periodontal status and/or to compromise treatment outcomes;
- Patients who received antibiotic and/or anti-inflammatory treatments the last 6 months
- Patients who received immunosuppressors treatments the last 6 months;
- Patients who received any periodontal therapy for the last 6 months;
- Pregnant or lactating women;
- Smokers smoking more than 10 cigarettes per day.

- Will not share
Individual participant data (IPD) from this study will not be shared due to the small sample size and the sensitive nature of patient-level clinical measurements. Sharing such data could risk participant confidentiality and privacy. Additionally, the study is investigator-initiated, and resources for secure anonymization, storage, and controlled access for external researchers are not available at this time.
