Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
To compare the effectiveness of open flap debridement (OFD), open flap debridement with photodynamic therapy (PDT), and open flap debridement with photoablation (PA) in managing periodontitis patients by evaluating the reduction in probing pocket depth (PPD) and gain in clinical attachment level (CAL) at baseline, 3 months and 6 months post-surgery. Timepoint: Baseline, 3 months and 6 months post-surgery.	—
