Abstract

Non surgical periodontal therapy is the first step in periodontal therapy procedure. Elimination of biofilm and
mineral deposit from tooth surface is a basic of periodontal therapy. Clinical data showed that the success of long
term periodontal therapy depends on the result of first step compare to spesific surgical therapy. Methods used in
non surgical therapy are mechanical instrumentation, ultrasonic debridement, supragingival and subgingival
irigation, localized drugs, systemic antibiotics, and host response modulation. The successful of periodontal therapy
depends on the management of negative environment and reduction of bacterial pathogen through a combination of
better environment which is less anaerobic for good microorganism to live. The aim of non surgical therapy is to
reduce microbial etiology and factors involved in the progression of gingiva and periodontal. The end result is to
stop the disease progression and to gain healthy gingiva and tissue condition.
