Hyaluronic Acid With Scaling & Root Planing In Chronic Periodontitis Patients With Diabetes Mellitus Type 2

Thirty subjects with chronic periodontitis & diabetes mellitus type 2 were included in this randomized clinical trial. These subjects were randomly allocated into test & control equal groups. The test group comprised fifteen patients who received SRP with subgingival application of Hyaluronic acid as an adjunct. The control group included fifteen patients who received SRP alone. Plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing depth (PD) & clinical attachment level (CAL) were measured & documented at baseline, 6 weeks & 12 weeks intervals.
