Localized chronic periodontitis with pocket depth =5 mm Oral Health
Conditions
Interventions
The intra-oral examination assessed gingival inflammation using the Gingival Index (GI), as well as measuring Probing Depth (PD) and Clinical Attachment Loss (CAL). The PD was measured from the pocket

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Presence or absence of gingival inflammation, evaluated using Gingival Index (GI) and Periodontal Disease Index (PDI) 2. Probing Depth (PD) (distance from the base of the pocket to the crest of the gingiva) 3. Clinical Attachment Loss (CAL) (distance from the base of the pocket to the cemento-enamel junction) Measured with William’s periodontal probe (MEDESY, Maniago, Italy) at four surfaces per one index tooth (mid-buccal/facial, mid-lingual/palatal, mesio-buccal and desto-buccal) Measured four times during the study, the first measurement was recorded at baseline before SRP was done (pre-treatment record), then the second record 1 week after the therapy, the third record 1 month after the intervention and after 3 months of the treatment the patients were recalled again to record clinical measures (GI, CAL and PD). The clinical examination was carried out by a single examiner who was the researcher. All researchers, the participants and statisticians were blind to the type of treatment. | — |
