What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of 2% bromelain gel and 0.2% chlorhexidine gel as local drug delivery methods following scaling and root planing (SRP) in patients with Stage II/III and Grade B periodontitis. A total of 36 periodontal sites with probing depths of 4-6mm are divided into three groups: one receiving SRP alone, another receiving SRP followed by bromelain gel, and the last receiving SRP followed by chlorhexidine gel. Patients are monitored at 1 week, 4 weeks, and 12 weeks post-treatment to assess outcomes.
