Procedure: Minimally invasive non-surgical periodontal therapy
Procedure: Conventional non-surgical periodontal therapy
Registration Number
NCT06145685
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of smoking cessation on inflammatory markers following non-surgical treatment of periodontal disease. This is to assess the period of smoking abstinence needed before any periodontal surgery in order to reverse the negative effects of the reported increased levels of inflammatory markers (IL-1β and PGE2 in this study) associated with smoking on the healing and the periodontium.
