Abstract :

 Aim–Evaluate the efficacy of subgingival irrigation between 10mg/ml concentration tetracycline HCL and 0.2% chlorhexidine digluconate.

Materials and methods– The study was designed with 40 patients and randomly assigned to two groups, each receiving one out of the two
irrigants.Solutions used were Tetracycline HCL 10 mg/ml concentration and 0.2% Chlorhexidine gluconate. At the baseline the clinical parameters
recorded were BOP, GI ,PI ,Pocket Depth and CAL and SRP was followed by one time subgingival irrigation.The subjects were recalled at 7th
day,1st and 3rd month post irrigation and clinical parameters were recorded.
Results– The value of all the clinical parameters at 3 months after the single episode application of subgingival irrigation in both the groups showed
statistical improvement in the clinical parameters compared to the baseline.
Conclusion–Both the agents showed an efficacious result at 1st month and 3rd month after the subgingival irrigation with the agents.
