Antioxidant biomarker0 and 6 month evaluationmeasuring total antioxidant capacity.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
gingival index0,1,3,6 month evaluationclinical evaluation of GI score from (0 to 3) 0 = normal is the best value. 3 = diseesed (the worst value). 0=Normal gingiva. 1. = mild inflammation, a slight change in color, slight edema, no bleeding on probing. 2. = moderate inflammation, redness, edema, and glazing; bleeding on probing. 3. = severe inflammation, marked redness and edema, ulceration, and the tendency to spontaneous bleeding.
clinical attachment level or loss0,1,3,6 month evaluation* Clinical Attachment Level (CAL) or loss: Clinical attachment level was measured from the cementoenamel junction to the base of the pocket using a University of Michigan probe with the University of North Carolina periodontal probe (UNC15) around each tooth. * measurement unite by millimetre * zero clinical attachment level means no periodontitis * clinical attachment loss is a critical parameter differentiated betwwn gingivitis and periodontitis * the less the number, the better the case improvement. * cal of 2 mm is better than cal of 4 mm.
plaque index0,1,3,6 month evaluationevaluation of PI score from (0-3) 0 is the best value; 3 is the worst. 0=No plaque is visible, even when a probe is used. 1. = Some plaque is visible only when a probe is used to skim the tooth surface. 2. = A visible amount of plaque can be seen without a probe. 3. = abudant amount of plaque at gingival margin, interdental spaces filled with plaque.
