Conditions
Brief summary
Aim of the study: This study aims to evaluate the antioxidant and beneficial effects of matcha tea daily intake on periodontal health. Objectives: * To evaluate the salivary level of antioxidants (catalase, total antioxidant capacity) after matcha tea intake compared to green tea over a period of one month. * To evaluate the clinical periodontal parameters including bleeding on probing (BOP), probing pocket depth (PPD) and plaque index (PI) after matcha tea intake compared to green tea over a period of one month. * To evaluate the salivary levels of IL-1B after matcha tea intake compared to green tea over a period of one month.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| change in salivary level of antioxidant marker | 30 Days (baseline to one moth of tea intake) | change in level of catalase enzyme in ku/L |
| change in salivary level of ant-inflammatory marker | 30 Days (baseline to one moth of tea intake) | change in level of interleukin- one beta (IL-1B) in pg/L |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| change in percentage of bleeding on probing (BOP) | 30 Days (baseline to one moth of tea intake) | change in BOP percentage. less percentage means less inflammation in gingival tissue |
| change in plaque index (PI) scores | 30 Days (baseline to one moth of tea intake) | change in PI scores. less scores mean less dental plaque accumulated onto teeth surfaces |
