Primary outcomePrimary: Change From Baseline in C-Reactive Protein Level at 6 Months — 6.30; 4.94 mg/L
Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether scaling and root planing as a periodontal intervention helps in improving the overall health of patients suffering from coronary heart disease.
