Summary

This study aims to see if the amount of plaque on teeth can predict how well non-surgical gum treatment works. Researchers will follow 100 adults with gum disease for 12 months after treatment, measuring pocket depth and other gum health signs. The goal is to understand if a simple plaque score can help forecast treatment outcomes.

Who is studied

At least 100 patients with a baseline diagnosis of periodontitis, aged between 18 and 80 years, who have never received periodontal treatment, will be included in the study. Patients will be recruited from the Unit of Periodontology and Dental Hygiene at the Dental Clinic of the Department of Innovative Technologies in Medicine and Dentistry, University of "Gabriele D'Annunzio" of Chieti.

Patients must have a confirmed diagnosis of periodontitis and be within the age range of 18 to 80 years. Individuals who have previously received periodontal treatment, are currently taking antibiotics or have taken antibiotics in the past three months, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have systemic diseases or are on medications that contraindicate periodontal treatment or could influence study outc
