Abstract

Background: Periodontal disease represents an inflammation of both soft and hard tooth-supporting tissues which is regarded as one of the major causes of tooth loss worldwide. The present study was conducted to assess effect of probiotics to nonsurgical treatment of chronic periodontitis. Materials & Methods: 48 patients of chronic periodontitis of both genders was included. In all patients, bacterial cultures and clinical evaluation were recorded in 70 sites in patients.  After scaling and root planning (SRP), oral hygiene measures were reassured, and sites were divided into 2 groups 35 sites each. Group I received SRP only and group II received SRP and subgingival delivery of 1 ml of probiotic L. Results: Out of 48 patients, males were 23 and females were 25. The mean plaque index showed score 3 at baseline was seen in 35 in group I and 35 in group II. At 3 months score 1 was seen in 17 in group I and 35 in group II, score 2 in 18 in group I. At 6 months, score 2 was seen in 17 in group I and 25 in group II and score 3 in 18 in group I. and 10 in group II.
