Comparative Evaluation of the Effect of Different Adjunctive Air Polishing Powders in Nonsurgical Periodontal Therapy in Patients with Stage II and III Periodontitis
Sponsor: Diana Ibrahim
Summary
The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate and compare the effect of a newly designed air-polishing device (APD) using Erythritol, Glycine, and Trehalose air-polishing powders in nonsurgical periodontal therapy with control (conventional scaling and root planning) following the concept of guided biofilm therapy (GBT) as an adjunctive to subgingival instrumentation (SI) in nonsurgical periodontal therapy for Stage II and III periodontitis patients both clinically and microbiologically.

Conditions
Interventions
GBT and SI with erythritol powder
Non-Surgical Periodontal treatment: 1. Guided Biofilm Therapy * Guided supragingival and shallow subgingival (PD ≥ 4 mm) removal of biofilm and stains from all quadrants using the air-polishing device using a standard nozzle system. * Subgingival removal of biofilm from deeper periodontal pockets (PD ≥ 6 mm) using an Air-polishing device subgingival nozzle system with erythritol powder . 2. Scaling and root planing Scaling and root planing (SRP) For the control group, conventional scaling and root planning (SRP) only.
GBT and SI with glycine powder
Non-Surgical Periodontal treatment: 1. Guided Biofilm Therapy • Guided supragingival and shallow subgingival (PD ≥ 4 mm) removal of biofilm and stains from all quadrants using the air-polishing device using a standard nozzle system. • Subgingival removal of biofilm from deeper periodontal pockets (PD ≥ 6 mm) using an Air-polishing device subgingival nozzle system with glycine powder. 2. Scaling and root planing Scaling and root planing (SRP) For the control group, conventional scaling and root planning (SRP) only
GBT and SI with trehalose powder
Non-Surgical Periodontal treatment: 1. Guided Biofilm Therapy • Guided supragingival and shallow subgingival (PD ≥ 4 mm) removal of biofilm and stains from all quadrants using the air-polishing device using a standard nozzle system. • Subgingival removal of biofilm from deeper periodontal pockets (PD ≥ 6 mm) using an Air-polishing device subgingival nozzle system with trehalose powder . 2. Scaling and root planing Scaling and root planing (SRP) For the control group, conventional scaling and root planning (SRP) only
SRP and SI
conventional scaling and root planning (SRP) with subgingival instrumentation only will be performed
