Overview
Brief Summary
The presence of periodontal diseases in patients has been associated to a worsened quality of life overall. Many different indices have been proposed over time in order to evaluate patient's centred outcomes. In particular, the most thorough questionnaire proposed so far is the Oral Health Impact Profile 49 (OHIP-49), which is composed of 49 questions. Despite its validity being unquestionable, OHIP-49 was found to be too time-consuming for the clinical scenario and, therefore, its shortened 14-question version has been proposed. A more in-depth knowledge of how these parameters change before and after periodontal treatment could enable clinicians to tailor the treatment plan according to the patients' needs.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change in Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (Brief IPQ) before and after non-surgical periodontal treatment
Time Frame: The questionnaire will be carried out at baseline and re-evaluation (3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment). The change in the Brief IPQ values at baseline and after 3 months will be considered as the primary outcome measure.
Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire consists of 9 questions, each one evaluated on a scale of 0 to 10 (minimum score of 0, maximum score of 90). Higher scores mean a higher patient's perception of the disease (higher scores mean worse outcome).
Change in Oral Health Impact Profile 14 before and after non-surgical periodontal treatment
Time Frame: The questionnaire will be carried out at baseline and re-evaluation (3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment). The change in the OHIP-14 values at baseline and after 3 months will be considered as the primary outcome measure.
14 questions about the impact of oral health on the quality of life; each question will be evaluated on a scale of 1 to 5 (minimum score of 0, maximum score of 70). Higher scores mean that patient's oral health impacts more significantly on their quality of life (higher scores, worse outcomes).
Secondary Outcomes
- Change in Full Mouth Bleeding Score (FMBS) before and after non-surgical periodontal treatment(FMBS will be calculated at baseline and re-evaluation (3 months after non-surgical periodontal treatment). The change in the FMBS at baseline and after 3 months will be considered as the secondary outcome measure.)
