Brief Summary

The present study aimed to assess the adjunctive use of Hyaluronic acid with scaling \& root planing (SRP) in patients with chronic periodontitis \& diabetes mellitus type 2.

Detailed Description

Thirty subjects with chronic periodontitis \& diabetes mellitus type 2 were included in this randomized clinical trial. These subjects were randomly allocated into test \& control equal groups. The test group comprised fifteen patients who received SRP with subgingival application of Hyaluronic acid as an adjunct. The control group included fifteen patients who received SRP alone. Plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing depth (PD) \& clinical attachment level (CAL) were measured \& documented at baseline, 6 weeks \& 12 weeks intervals.
