Clinical Assessment of Adjunctive Omega-3 Versus Vitamin D daily Supplements on Active Periodontal Therapy with Stage II Grade B Periodontitis Patients: A Randomized controlled clinical trial.
This randomized clinical trial evaluates the effect of Omega- 3 versus Vitamin D regarding Clinical evaluation 1. Clinical attachment loss (CAL) 2. Plaque index (PI) 3. Gingival index (GI)

* The CAL PPD and mSBI will be measured for each patient and will be recorded at baseline and 6 weeks * all patients will receive supragingival and sub-gingival plaque and calculus debridement (SRP) with an ultrasonic scaler (Various 350; NSK, Japan) and a manual universal curette (Gracey; Hu-Friday, Chicago, USA) where, conventional scaling and root planning (SRP) to the bottom of the pocket of 4 mm or more * Subgingival saline irrigation will be performed adjunctively to Sub-gingival curettage.

RECRUITINGclinical attachment loss (CAL)
* All clinical outcomes will be measured baseline, 6 weeks after SRP alone and in conjunction with Omega- 3 and Vitamin D. * CAL will be measured form cemento- enamel junction (CEJ) to the depth of the pocket using UNC periodontal probe. * It will be recorded at 6 sites per tooth, the recorded readings will be used to generate mean values at each time point.
Time frame: Day 0 - month 3- month 6
Plaque index (PI)
• through the Silness \& Loe plaque index score: score the thickness of plaque, sum the scores, and divide by the number of surfaces/teeth to get an average score. 0: no plaque - 1: thin film on gingival margin - 2: visible plaque in pocket and on gingival margin - 3: dense plaque in pocket and on gingival margin
Time frame: Day 0 - month 3- month 6
Gingival index (GI)
through the modified Loe \& Silness score by assigning a score to each site based on these criteria as follows. 0: normal gingiva - 2: mild inflammation (slight color change, slight edema, no bleeding on probing) - 3: moderate inflammation (redness-edema-glazing-bleeding on probing) - 3: severe inflammation (marked redness, edema, spontaneous bleeding, or ulceration).
Time frame: Day 0- month 3- month 6
