The Effect of Periodontal Therapy in Chronic Periodontitis Patients With and Without Acute Myocardial Infarction

"periodontal examination included the assessment of plaque index (PI), gingival index(GI), probing depth (PD), bleeding on probing (BOP) and clinical attachment level (CAL).~All subjects underwent a periodontal examination performed by the same periodontitis (ZTÇ) Prior to the study, the examiner was calibrated for reproducibility of PD and CAL measurements"

GCF samples were collected using commercially available periopaper . The sample site was gently air-dried and all supragingival plaque was removed. The area was carefully isolated with cotton rolls and a saliva ejector was used to prevent the samples from being contaminated by saliva. The paper strips were inserted into the pockets until slight resistance was felt and left in place for 30s.
