Brief summary
A double-blind randomized-controlled clinical trial is conducted in order to evaluate the impact of non-surgical periodontal treatment by means of minimally invasive approach MINST or Q-SI (quadrantwise) approach in subjects with periodontitis on residual pockets after active periodontal treatment
Detailed description
A double-blind randomized-controlled clinical trial is conducted in order to evaluate the impact of non-surgical periodontal treatment in subjects with periodontitis. 60 patients: 30 with periodontitis and 30 healthy controls who underwent active periodontal treatment. All the patients are assessed for clinical, periodontal, blood following of minimally invasive approach MINST or Q-SI (quadrantwise). Measurements are taken before and after initial periodontal treatment in the periodontal subjects in order to evaluate the best treatment for residual pockets.
