PERIODONTITIS
A total of 46 patients with periodontitis were randomised into 2 groups. RP performed the coding and randomisation of the participants in the treatment groups with a computer-generated randomisation table. At first, the patients were issued unique numbers from 1 to 46. After the coding procedure, a simple randomisation without restrictions was performed, and 2 sets of randomised numbers were generated (23 each). The allocation concealment was done by associating the first set of numbers to the control group (MINST) and the second set to the test group (MINST + PACNs).
