Clinical Comparative Evaluation of the use of Photodynamic Therapy in conjunction with the use of Vitamin D in management Stage II Grade B Periodontitis Patients: A Randomized controlled clinical trial.
This randomized clinical trial evaluates the effect of Photodynamic therapy alone with SRP versus Photodynamic therapy with SRP and Vitamin D regarding Clinical evaluation 1. Clinical attachment loss (CAL) 2. Probing pocket depth (PPD) 3. Bleeding on probing (BOP)

RECRUITINGClinical attachment level (CAL)
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 - Week 6
Probing Pocket Depth (PPD)
PPD will be measured form free gingival margin (FGM) to the depth of the pocket using UNC periodontal probe.
Time frame: Day 0 - Week 6
Bleeding on probing (BOP)
Assessment after 30 seconds after gentle brushing of the sulcus with a periodontal probe, measurement quadrant
Time frame: Day 0- Week 6
