The microbiologic etiology of periodontal disease has been confirmed by numerous studies conducted over the years. Periodontal treatment thus focuses on the thorough removal of plaque, calculus, and plaque products. Nonsurgical mechanical treatment, which includes mechanical plaque control, scaling and root planing, is the first recommended step and is an indispensable phase of periodontal therapy. One of the significant advances in periodontal research is the identification of specific pathogenic species in periodontitis.
