The primary course of periodontal treatment is non-surgical periodontal therapy followed by surgical therapy, if required, with an aim to arrest ongoing inflammatory periodontal destruction along with reconstruction of lost apparatus if possible. There is no protocol established for completing scaling and root planing (SRP) in patients with generalized advanced periodontitis. In some cases SRP is completed in single sitting whereas in other cases supragingival scaling is followed by subgingival SRP in the next appointment. It is hypothesized that presence of reparative components near the base of the pocket could result in better treatment outcomes after scaling and root planning done in single sitting when compared to supragingival scaling followed by sub-gingival scaling and root planning after one week.
