Brief Summary

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

Clinical Comparative Evaluation of the use of Photodynamic Therapy in conjunction with the use of Vitamin D in management Stage II Grade B Periodontitis Patients: A Randomized controlled clinical trial.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This randomized clinical trial evaluates the effect of Photodynamic therapy alone with SRP versus Photodynamic therapy with SRP and Vitamin D regarding Clinical evaluation

1. Clinical attachment loss (CAL)
2. Probing pocket depth (PPD)
3. Bleeding on probing (BOP)

non-surgical periodontal therapy (SRP) and Photodynamic therapy (PDT) only

* all patients will receive supragingival and sub-gingival plaque and calculus debridement (SRP) with an ultrasonic scaler and a manual universal curette where, conventional scaling and root planning (SRP) to the bottom of the pocket of 4 mm or more will be done to preserve any residual fibers attached and to avoid unintentional curettage and prevent any possible shrinkage.
* Subgingival saline irrigation will be performed adjunctively to Sub-gingival curettage.
* All teeth will be polished with a rubber cup. Photodynamic therapy will be done with a blue halogen curing light of wavelength 470 nm with intensity 620 mW/cm2, a continuous mode for 5 min.
* The photosensitizer will be applied to the bottom of the periodontal pocket with the help of an applicator. After 5 min, the photosensitizer will be rinsed with saline and will be exposed to on blue halogen curing light "0" day, which will be repeated on 7th and 21st day.

After 5 min, the photosensitizer will be rinsed with saline and will be exposed to on blue halogen curing light "0" day, which will be repeated on 7th and 21st day. Serum vitamin D levels will be assessed by blood sample at baseline and 6 weeks after intervention in test group.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Systemic healthy patients
* Patients aged \> 25 years
* Patients suffering from stage II periodontitis with grade B were included in this study, according to 2017 world workshop classification of periodontal disease.
* Patients with interdental clinical attachment loss (CAL) of 3-4 mm with radiographic evidence of bone loss extending to coronal third of the root.
* Radiographic bone loss (RBL) will be diagnosed using periapical parallel technique using 6 radiographic images for full mouth (3- radiographic images for maxillary arch and 3- radiographic images for mandibular arch) including anterior, canine region and posterior teeth at baseline for diagnosis.
* No history of previous periodontal therapy.
* No taken medications known to interfere healing or periodontal tissue health such as anticonvulsants, calcium channel blockers, or immunosuppressant drugs.
* No previous periodontal surgery at involved sites.
* Good oral hygiene and good compliance with the plaque control instructions following initial therapy.
* Neither taken antibiotics within the last three months nor nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs within the last three months
* Absence of diseases or conditions that would interfere with wound healing such as diabetes mellitus or coagulation disorders
