Brief Summary   The study is randomized controlled clinical trial to compare and clinically evaluate black silk (MERSILK),Polyglactin 910 (MONOCRYL), ePTFE (GORETEX) sutures during periodontal flap surgeries. The primary outcome is periodontal outcome which include reduction in probing pocket depth & gain in clinical attachment level recorded at 3 and 6 months. Secondary variables are proper handling of suture materials, early wound healing, assessment of pain, tissue reactivity at 7th day and 15th day.
