Introduction
The primary etiologic factor for periodontal diseases is
dental plaque bacteria. Several species of bacteria have
been found to be associated with a disease state, among
which Porphyromonas gingivalis, Bacteroides forsythus

and Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans are considered to be major periodontal pathogens (Socransky and
Haajee, 1992). Although the amount and virulence of
the bacteria are important factors in periodontal disease
progression, special emphasis is directed today to the
role of the host-response in this process (Van Dyke et al,
1993). Periodontal pathogens and their products elicit
an inammatory response in the gingiva, but the
resulting tissue destruction is probably mediated
through host-derived proinammatory mediators
released from activated immune cells (Gemmell et al,
1997; Kornman et al, 1997). The type and the magnitude of the inammatory response is a key factor in
determining the outcome of gingival inammation. This
new understanding of the molecular basis of periodontal
disease has opened up new approaches for the control of
periodontal infection.
While gingival inammation is a ubiquitous nding,
severe periodontitis only occurs in a subgroup of susceptible individuals (Albandar et al, 1999). Several studies
have shown that individual susceptibility to periodontal
disease has a genetic basis (Marazita et al, 1994; Shapira
et al, 1997). However, environmental factors, such as
smoking, acquired systemic diseases and the use of drugs
are also known to predispose to periodontal disease
(Scully et al, 1991). Anti-infective periodontal treatment,
which includes oral hygiene measures, mechanical
debridement, pharmacologic intervention and surgery,
has been shown to be eective in arresting the progression
of periodontal destruction (Lindhe and Nyman 1975;
Badersten et al, 1987; Ramfjord 1987). Nevertheless, the
chronic nature of the disease requires continuous monitoring and preventive treatment. Susceptible individuals
who completed the active treatment phase and were not
maintained in a supervised recall program, showed signs
of recurrent destruction (Axelsson and Lindhe, 1981;
Becker et al, 1984).

Systemic antibiotic
Employment of systemic antibiotics for routine SPT can
give rise to a number of adverse eects and should be
prescribed for use only in special cases after proper
evaluation. The use of antibiotics during SPT should be
reserved for patients experiencing periodontal breakdown and recurrence of disease. The use of antibiotics
for active disease is discussed elsewhere in this
document.

Conclusion
The evidence for incorporating the use of antimicrobials
in professional and personal SPT is controversial. SPT is
indicated for patients with increased susceptibility to
periodontal pathogens and, from a microbiology point
of view, the use of antimicrobial agents as an adjunct to
mechanical debridement might be benecial for patients
at high-risk. The use of antiseptic solutions (mouthrinses
and irrigations) during SPT appointments may be an
additional instrument for reducing the reservoirs of
periodontal pathogens. For pockets with increased
probing depth, the use of local sustained delivery
devices have been shown to improve the results of
mechanical debridement and the data is sucient to
indicate this procedure as routine supplementation to
SPT for patients and sites at high-risk. However, the
high cost of the devices, particularly for multiple
pockets, put in question the cost-benet value of this
therapeutic approach. The use of antimicrobial mouthrinses following SPT appointments, such as chlorhexidine, may assist to prevent re-infection of periodontal
pockets, but their use should be limited to short periods.
However, daily use of mouthrinses with plaque
reduction and anticariogenic properties may be
recommended.
