Table 5. Comparison of the clinical parameters between test and control groups at 3 months follow-up.
(Mean±SD; in mm).
| Parameters | Test group | Control group | Difference | p value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vertical probing depth reduction | 1.5±0.52 | 1.16±0.57 | 0.33±0.65 | 0.10 |
| Clinical attachment level gain | 1.33±0.88 | 0.91±0.99 | 0.41±1.56 | 0.37 |
| Horizontal probing depth reduction | 1.33±0.49 | 1.33±0.49 | 0±0.73 | 1 |
| Increased gingival marginal level | 0.08 ±0.51 | 0.25 ±0.62 | 0.16±0.93 | 0.55 |
S=Significant ( p<0.05); NS=Non-significant ( p>0.05).
P value is calculated based on the data and less than 0.05 is statistically significant.
