The current study is a prospective randomised study Evaluation of 2%Bromelain Gel With 0.2%Chlorhexidine Gel as Subgingival Local Drug Delivery Following Scaling and Root Planing in Stage II/III and Grade B Periodontitis
36 sites with periodontal pocket depth measuring 4-6mm were selected. The sites selected were divided into 1. Group I (Control)- 12 sites with Probing depth of ≥5mm treated with scaling and root planing alone. 2. Group II -12 sites with Probing depth of ≥5mm treated with scaling and root planing followed by placement of bromelain gel. 3. Group III -12 sites with Probing depth of ≥5mm treated with scaling and root planing followed by placement of chlorhexidine gel. periodontal pack was placed and patient was recalled at 1week,4th week and 12th week
