Protocol summary

Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of periodontal treatment with or without low dose Doxycycline on circulating TNF – α, IL – 6, and serum Lipids in advanced periodontitis. Thirty four participants, aged 40-70 year-old, with severe generalized periodontitis are recruited from patients referred to the periodontics department, faculty of Dentistry, Guilan University of Medical Sciences. The patients are randomly assigned into control or intervention group to receive deep scaling and root planing, chlorhexidine mouthwash, and oral hygiene instruction as well as either placebo or 40 mg doxycycline capsule for one month. Serum level of inflammatory mediators as well as periodontal parameters including probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level, bleeding upon probing, and plaque index are measured (by a blind examiner) before and one month after the intervention.
