About this trial
This randomized clinical trial aims to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of the Vector®️ ultrasonic system and mini-five curettes in non-surgical periodontal therapy. Patients diagnosed with periodontitis will be randomly assigned to either ultrasonic instrumentation or manual instrumentation. Clinical periodontal parameters and radiographic bone level changes will be evaluated at baseline, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. The primary objective is to assess differences in clinical attachment level and probing depth reduction between the two treatment modalities.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change in Probing Depth(PD)
Change in periodontal probing depth (in millimeters) from baseline to follow-up after non-surgical periodontal therapy using Vector®️ ultrasonic system compared with mini-five curettes.
Change in Radiographic Vertical Bone Defect Depth
Change in radiographic vertical bone defect depth (mm) assessed on standardized radiographs at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months after treatment.
Secondary outcomes
Pain Sensitivity(VAS Score)
Pain sensitivity assessed using a visual analog scale (VAS) during and immediately after the treatment session.
