Abstract excerpt
AIM: To assess the subgingival microbial shift of maintained periodontitis treated by ultrasonic scaling (US) or air polishing (AP) during a 3-month maintenance interval. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a 12-week randomized split-mouth controlled trial with US and AP in 17 maintained subjects (bleeding on probing [BOP%] ≤25%, probing depth [PD] ≤5 mm). They were monitored at baseline, week 2, week 8 and week...
