Clinical Efficacy of Open Flap Debridement with Camel Whey Protein Hydrogel for the Treatment of Periodontal Intraosseous Defects in Stage III Periodontitis : A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Background: Periodontal intraosseous defects represent a major clinical challenge in the management of advanced periodontitis. Although open flap debridement (OFD) can arrest disease progression and improve periodontal clinical parameters, predictable regeneration of the lost periodontal supporting tissues remains chal...

Comparison Between Efficacy of LASER Assisted & Conventional Non-surgical Periodontal Therapy: An experimental study

Background: Scaling and root planing (SRP) is the cornerstone of nonsurgical periodontal therapy; however, adjunctive approaches may enhance clinical and microbiological outcomes. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has been proposed as an adjunct to SRP because of its potential anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects....

Efficacy of Diode Laser as an Adjunct to Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy in the Treatment of Stage II and III Periodontitis: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Objectives: The goal of periodontal therapy is to reduce the bacterial deposits in the pockets; which is mainly achieved by non surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT). Despite effective, it may sometimes be insufficient. Laser offered several advantages as bactericidal, disinfectant and healing accelerator. The aim of the...

Clinical efficacy of hydrogen peroxide-based mouthwash versus chlorhexidine in post-periodontal flap surgery healing: a randomized controlled clinical trial

Postsurgical wound healing following periodontal flap surgery is critical for achieving optimal clinical outcomes. While chlorhexidine (CHX) remains the gold standard antiseptic mouthwash, concerns regarding adverse effects have prompted the exploration of alternative agents. A novel hydrogen peroxide-based formu...

Long-Term Clinical Effectiveness of Topical Chlorhexidine as an Adjunct to Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy: A Narrative Review

Background: Mechanical debridement is the cornerstone of non‑surgical periodontal ther-apy. Chlorhexidine (CHX), delivered as a mouthrinse, gel, or by subgingival irrigation, is commonly prescribed adjunctively, but its long‑term clinical effectiveness remains unclear.Aim: To evaluate whether CHX adjunctive to scaling...
