All patients with chronic periodontitis (age 30 years and older) attending the selected Public Dental clinics in VG are eligible. The patients should have at least 8 teeth with pathological pockets (probing pocket depth ≥5 mm and bleeding on probing). Only patients providing signed informed consent are included. Reported data in the study by Wennström et al. (J Clin Periodontol 2005) were used for power calculation. Thus, a total sample of 834 patients will provide a power of 95% at a significance level of p<0.05 to detect a difference of 5% in proportion of sites with "pocket closure" i.e. PPD ≤4 mm and BoP negative (primary efficacy variable) between treatment groups. For a power of 80% a total sample of 506 patients is required.
