Impact of Non Surgical Periodontal Therapy on Cystatin C Levels

Non-surgical periodontal therapy involves the removal of bacterial plaque and calculus from tooth surfaces and root surfaces beneath the gum line using manual or ultrasonic instruments. This treatment is performed for patients with periodontitis to improve gum health and reduce inflammation. Serum cystatin C levels will be compared before and after treatment between healthy patients and those with renal impairment.
