Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: What is the size of the benefit of an adjunctive antibiotic therapy compared to standard mechanical debridement and oral hygiene instructions in a representative sample of German periodontitis patients? ;Secondary Objective: Does the administration of the antibiotic therapy delay recurrence of periodontitis in the general population and in specific high risk groups (e.g. smokers) under standard supportive therapy? Is the presence of specific microbial complexes a useful predictor of outcome and recurrence of periodontitis? Does the administration of the antibiotic therapy affect the oral health related quality of life? ;Primary end point(s): Percentage of sites showing attachment loss = 1.3 mm over a 27.5-months period.
