Evaluation of Efficacy of Full-mouth Disinfection in Generalized Aggressive Periodontitis Patients

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether full-mouth disinfection is effective in the initial periodontal treatment of generalized aggressive periodontitis on clinical parameters, gingival crevicular fluid interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-17 (IL-17) and periodontal pathogen levels compared with conventional initial periodontal treatment and full-mouth initial periodontal treatment. The investigators' hypothesis is to test whether full-mouth disinfection in the initial periodontal treatment of generalized aggressive periodontitis enhance the clinical, biochemical and microbiological parameters in comparison to conventional initial periodontal treatment and full-mouth initial periodontal treatment.
