Sponsor's own description
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that adversely influences the supporting tissues of the teeth. It is primarily characterized by the accumulation of bacterial plaque and the host immune response. Traditional periodontal therapy emphasizes the central roles of both oral hygiene education and risk factor management; however, maintaining a long-term optimal behavioral compliance remains challenging. The purpose of this Randomized Controlled Trial is to assess how effective is Medical Coaching on Oral Health (MCOH) in improving plaque control (PCR) and gingival health (GBI) in patients with periodontitis after one month, in comparison to traditional oral hygiene instructions (OHI).
