Brief Summary
|
This is a prospective randomized controlled trial with the primary aim to compare the changes in masticatory muscle activity and Quality of life in individuals with Generalised stage II, and III Periodontitis before and after periodontal therapy along with splinting of Premolars and Molars. the hypothesis behind the study there is a difference in masticatory muscle activity in individuals with Generalised stage II, and III Periodontitis after periodontal therapy and splinting of Premolars and Molars. The primary outcome will be the changes in masticatory muscle activity and an improvement in the Quality of an individual’s life with Generalised stage II, and III Periodontitis after periodontal therapy along with splinting of Premolars and Molars. the secondary outcome will be the advantage of splinting of molars and premolars on masticatory muscles activity because of the summation of PDL mechanoreceptors. |
