Flurbiprofen Versus Aloe Vera Gel in the Treatment of Chronic Periodontitis in Smoking Patients.

Gel was made of 20% poloxamer and 10% ethanol as an Optimum formulation with sustained release up to 48 hours and a reasonable sol gel transition phase (adjunctive to SRP)

the Aloe vera gel employed possessed a concentration of 98% and was obtained from the reputable brand Avivir (Denmark). The remaining 2% comprised normal saline. The process of obtaining the 98% Aloe vera gel involved meticulous washing of mature Aloe Vera leaves under running water, followed by the removal of their outer skin. Subsequently, each leaf was divided into smaller pieces, from which the gel was allowed to seep out and carefully collected in a sterile container. The collected gel was then stored at 4°C until the time of its application in the study (adjunctive to SRP)
