Abstract
India is the second most populous country after China equivalent to 17.7% of the total world population and is soon projected to become the most populous country in the world with nearly 1.5 billion population. The prevalence of periodontal diseases ranges from 50 to 100 % in various parts of the Indian subcontinent [1]. In developing countries due to the high prevalence, they have serious socio-economic repercussions and adversely affect the quality of life [2]. Dental plaque or biofilm and plays a pivotal role in the initiation and progression of periodontal and peri-implant diseases as shown by several epidemiological surveys. Hence disruption of the biofilm to prevent periodontal disease remains the gold standard for their primary treatment [3].
