Total of 45 patients were divided into three groups based on their clinical and radiographical examination. Group 1 chronic periodontitis (n: 15), group 2 plaque induced gingivitis (n: 15) and group 3 Periodontal health (n: 15). GCF and serum samples were collected before treatment and 1, 3, 6 months after treatment and were assayed using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay kit.
