Brief Summary
The objective of this single-center prospective study is to evaluate the impact of periodontal treatment on masticatory performance in patients with periodontitis. Participants will be asked to complete several questionnaires related to their oral health and quality of life. Functional masticatory tests and salivary flow measurements will also be performed.

Study Arms (1)
Periodontisis
EXPERIMENTALPatients diagnosed with periodontitis will receive standard non-surgical periodontal treatment as part of routine care. Clinical and functional assessments will be performed at baseline (T0) and during follow-up visits (T1, T2) to evaluate changes in masticatory performance, salivary flow, and oral health-related quality of life.
Interventions
Administration of questionnaires, functional masticatory test, and saliva collection.
