Materials & methods: Thirty patients were randomly selected and equally divided into Group I received SRP only, group II received SRP and ozonated olive oil gelatin film. Subgingival application of ozone gel was performed following initial SRP and after 7 and 14 days. Clinical measurements included Probing pocket depth (PPD), plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), Oral hygiene index-simplified (OHI-S) and clinical attachment level (CAL) were recorded at baseline and after 21 days.
Results: The results showed improvement in all clinical parameters in (group II) which was maintained up to 21 days (P<0.001).
Conclusion: The study concluded that Ozonated olive oil gelatin film could be a promising adjunct to SRP in the treatment of Chronic periodontitis.
