Brief Summary

This study will be conducted to evaluate and compare the effects of Herbal gel in combination with non- surgical periodontal treatment and non-surgical periodontal treatment alone in a treatment of stage III periodontitis patients, clinically and radiographically by RVG.

A total of 22 subjects including both male and female visiting the Department of Periodontics and implantology at VSPM Dental College and research centre Nagpur will be recruited. Study will be divided into 2 groups

**Group I –** Stage III periodontitis to be treated with non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT).

**Group II** – Stage III periodontitis to be treated with non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy (NSPT) followed by Herbal gel placement subgingivally.

Prior to initiating the study, its purpose and design will be explained and informed consent will be signed by every patient. Probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level will be measured using UNC #15 probe and custom-made acrylic stent made to compare the measurement at each recall visit. Clinical procedure will consist of Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy in both groups. Group I patients will be treated by Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy only. Group II patients will be treated by Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy and Herbal gel subgingivally, then periodontal pack is given. Patients will be instructed to refrain from chewing hard or sticky foods, brushing near the treated areas, or using any interdental aids for 1 week. Patients will be recalled at 3 months and 6 months postoperatively.
