Arms of the Study

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Placebo Comparator

Arm Label

1% curcumin chip

Placebo chip

Arm Description

Following routine full mouth scaling and root planing within 48 hours, a single chip of 1% curcumin will be placed locally within a single isolated periodontal pocket(the deepest pocket in a patient will be chosen) using a forceps. The patient will be recalled after two weeks for the placement of another chip(second placement)

Following routine full mouth scaling and root planing within 48 hours, a single placebo chip will be placed locally within a single isolated periodontal pocket (the deepest pocket in a patient will be chosen) using a forceps. The patient will be recalled after two weeks for the placement of another chip (second placement)

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Cytokine parameter

Secondary Outcome Measures

Probing pocket depth
Intragroup within each group (1- curcumin group and 2- placebo group) and intergroup comparison between the two groups
