                    <jats:title>Objective:</jats:title>
                    <jats:p>The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of rotary instruments <jats:italic>vs</jats:italic> hand scalers in non-surgical periodontal therapy, studying the variation of periodontal health indexes.</jats:p>

                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods:</jats:title>
                    <jats:p>Forty patients (age between 30 and 70 years) with advanced chronic periodontitis, that were recruited for the study, were divided into two groups; control group and test group. Control patients were treated with hand scalers while test group patients were treated with rotary instruments. Periodontal indexes were evaluated at baseline and after 3 months.</jats:p>

                    <jats:title>Results:</jats:title>
                    <jats:p>Nonsignificant differences were found at 12 weeks follow up for all the parameters between test and control groups.</jats:p>

                    <jats:title>Conclusions:</jats:title>
                    <jats:p>Within their limits, the results indicate that different instruments can be effective in removing calculus and endotoxins. This requisite is mandatory for a proper periodontal healing.</jats:p>
                    <jats:p>The reasons for clinicians to use diamond-coated instruments are related to a faster procedure, and the clinical evidence of a smooth root surface. The clinicians’ ability remains one of the most important variables that could affect periodontal therapy.</jats:p>
