Root planning scaling treatment is carried out to remove irritants and microorganisms. The use of additional materials is required when the pocket depth is more than 5 mm. One of the herbal ingredients that has the potential as an adjunct to periodontal therapy is the 4% ocinumsanctum.Method: The sample consisted of 20 periodontal pockets with a depth of 4-6 mm which were given scaling root planning which were divided into two groups, namely 10 pockets given 4% maximum sanctum gel and 10 pockets given Metronidazole gel 25%. evaluations of the papillary bleeding index, TNF-α, and IL-β were performed at baseline, and on day 21. TNF-α and IL-β levels were taken through the gingival sulcus fluid and then tested using ELISA.Result: Papillary bleeding index, TNF-α, and IL-β levels showed a significant reduction in both groups but there was no significant difference between the 4% ocimum sanctum group and Metronidazole gel.Conclusion: ocimum sanctum application 4% post scaling root planning was able to lower papillary bleeding index score, TNF-α levels, and IL-β.
