Brief summary
This study was aimed at assessing the effects of non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT) of chronic periodontitis on insulin sensitivity, glucose tolerance, and serum C-reactive protein(CRP) level amongst non-diabetic subjects.
Detailed description
Subjects with chronic periodontitis will undergo non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT) consisting of a complete scaling, polishing, root planning, and the irrigation of periodontal pockets with a 10% povidone iodine solution. Periodontal parameters (plaque index, gingival bleeding index, pocket depth, and clinical attachment loss), insulin sensitivity using KITT, glucose tolerance using oral glucose tolerance test and serum CRP level by immunoturbidimetry will be measured before and 3 months after the NSPT.
Interventions
One session of complete scaling, polishing, root planning, and the irrigation of periodontal pockets with a 10% povidone iodine solution
