Brief Summary  

This study is a randomized, parallel group clinical trial comparing the efficacy of lactobacillus salivarus probiotic gel and chlorhexidine gel as an adjunct to scaling and root planing in the management of stage two periodontitis patients. probiotic Lactobacillus salivarius has the potential to modify the oral environment through antagonism to bacteria responsible for periodontal inflammation, including bacteria of the red complex. Patients will be assessed for eligibility. Based on Inclusion and Exclusion criteria, At the initial visit, all the patients will receive Supra gingival Scaling. Patients will be recalled after one week and clinical parameters such as plaque index, gingival index, pocket depth and clinical attachment level will be recorded and subgingival scaling and root planning will be performed.
