The result showed that it shows that scaling and root planing is efficient in reducing the gingival bleeding index scores, Probing Depth and Attachment Loss in chronic periodontitis patients. The study also proved that scaling and root planing was efficient in increasing the OPG scores in chronic periodontitis patients.</p>}, number={3}, journal={Asian Pacific Journal of Health Sciences}, author={Dr. C K Anil and Chander Shekar Joshi and Pradeep Shukla and Prerna Kataria and Gaurav Mahotra and Varun Dahiya}, year={2018}, month={Sep.}, pages={55–64} }
