Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Scaling and Root Planing (n=15): quadrant-wise scaling and root planing performed within four weekly session (30 min. per quadrant). Oral malodor was measured by organoleptic test and Oral Chroma (Abilit, Osaka Japan) prior to the oral examination, at Baseline and also at 90 days after treatment. Clinical monitoring and tongue coating index were taken at these same times. Oral hygiene instructions were given to all participants.
Full Mouth Scaling (n=15): scaling and root planning was performed in a single stage (within 24 hours); two sessions (60 min. per session) in two consecutive days. Oral malodor was measured by organoleptic test and Oral Chroma (Abilit, Osaka Japan) prior to the oral examination, at Baseline and also at 90 days after treatment. Clinical monitoring and tongue coating index were taken at these same times. Oral hygiene instructions were given to all participants.
