Protocol summary

Summary
Aim: To evaluate the effect of periodontal treatment on the C-reactive protein, plasma fibrinogen levels and white blood cell counts in advanced periodontitis. Thirty two 19-56 years-old subjects with severe generalized periodontitis were recruited from patients referred to the periodontics department, faculty of Dentistry, Guilan University of Medical Sciences. Intervention under study was Standard non-surgical periodontal therapy within two appointments including scaling and root planning with simultaneous lavage of chlorhexidine 0.1% from the tip of ultrasonic instrument into the pockets. Periodontal parameters and inflammatory markers[C-reactive protein (CRP), and plasma fibrinogen] and also white blood cell count (WBC) were evaluated prior to and four months after the intervention.
