|---|---|
| 1. Plaque Index (PI) (Silness J, Loe H,1964) 2. Gingival Index (GI) (Loe H, Silness J,1963) 3. Modified Sulcus Bleeding Index (SBI) (Mombelli 1987) 4. Probing Pocket Depth (PPD) (measured from crest of the gingival margin to the base of the pocket) and 5. Relative Clinical Attachment Levels (CAL) (measured from the lower border of acrylic stent to the base of the pocket) to be recorded only for the selected sites by using a customized acrylic stent. (with UNC-15 probe)Timepoint: Baseline and Postoperatively 45 days | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Collection of Unstimulated Whole Saliva(UWS) samples UWS to be collected at approximately the same time of day by the drooling method (Rhodus et al., 2005). Briefly, subjects asked to refrain from eating or drinking for 2 hours prior to saliva collection. At least 2ml of UWS to be collected by passively drooling into a chilled centrifuge tube for 5-10 minutes. The tubes to be codified and transferred on ice to the laboratory for processing. All samples to be centrifuged and the supernatant constituting clarified saliva to be separated and stored until further analysis. Unstimulated whole saliva (UWS) sampling to be conducted to evaluate IL-1L1 beta levels and samples will be sent to Department of Biotechnology and Bioinformatics for processing and analysis Timepoint: Baseline and Postoperatively 45 days | — |
