Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Literature on non surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) shows lack of clarity in reporting information on re-evaluation timing and clinical response. If the re-evaluation was done shortly after NSPT, this is also likely to have an influence on the surgical treatment plan. The aim of this prospective clinical trial is to investigate the effect of re-evaluation timing at 1-3-6 months after NSPT in terms of pocket closure, PD reduction, comprehensive treatment plan, and costs for the patient.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Non-surgical periodontal treatment NSPT

Conventional staging debridement (CSD) according to the severity of periodontal disease in 2 to 4 appointments at day 0, 7, 14 and 21.

Supra and subgingival scaling and polishing will be performed by the use of manual and ultrasonic instruments and oral hygiene instructions will be given. Patients will be instructed to use interdental brushes with appropriate size interdental brushes or dental floss when interdental embrasures will not allow for interdental brushing.
