The main question it aims to answer is: the single or combined use of ozonized olive oil products (mouthwash and toothpaste) and probiotics could improve the oral health status of patients with Stage I and II periodontitis compared to placebo?
Participants will proceed to their daily domiciliar oral hygiene maneuvers with the products given by investigators. The toothpaste was used twice daily, morning and evening, followed by rinsing with undiluted mouthwash for one minute. After rinsing, the patient did not rinse further with water and refrained from eating, drinking, and smoking for at least one hour. Domiciliary mechanical and drug therapies were continued, without modification, for 30 days. Moreover, the patients received a probiotic tablet daily.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Probing Pocket Depth
the depth of the pocket at four sites per tooth, measured from the free gingival margin to the base of the pocket using a UNC15 periodontal probe. Periodontal pockets were classified as moderate (PPD = 4-6 mm) or deep (PPD ≥ 7 mm).
Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 30 days
Full Mouth Plaque Score
A percentage indices based on dichotomous recordings (absence/presence of plaque) recorded at four sites for each tooth present in the patient's mouth, evaluating the patient's oral hygiene status. 0% indicates the absence of plaque recorded at four sites for each tooth present in the patient's mouth, which is the best outcome possible. 100% indicates the constant presence of plaque recorded at four sites for each tooth present in the patient's mouth, which is the worst outcome possible.
Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 30 days
Full Mouth Bleeding Score
A percentage indices based on dichotomous recordings (absence/presence of bleeding) recorded at four sites for each tooth present in the patient's mouth, evaluating the patient's inflammation status. 0% indicates the absence of bleeding recorded at four sites for each tooth present in the patient's mouth, which is the best outcome possible. 100% indicates the constant presence of bleeding recorded at four sites for each tooth present in the patient's mouth, which is the worst outcome possible.
Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 30 days
Secondary outcomes (1)
Adherence
The quality of adherence to the prescribed therapies was verified at each visit interval. Adherence was assessed as "valid" or "invalid."
Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 30 days
