Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The secondary hypothesis of this study is that there is no difference in the clinical & microbiological effects between subgingivally delivered spirulina gel & chlorhexidine gel before and after scaling and root planing.Timepoint: baseline, 3 weeks, 6 weeks
