The treatment of periodontitis should be carried out in an incremental manner, first by achieving adequate patient's oral hygiene practices and risk factor control during the first step of therapy and then, during the second step of therapy, by professional elimination (reduction) of supra and subgingival biofilm and calculus. If the endpoints of therapy (no periodontal pockets \>4 mm with bleeding on probing, BoP, or deep pockets ≥5 mm) have not been achieved, the third step of therapy should be implemented. In fact, residual pockets following step 1 and 2 of periodontal treatment are associated with increased risk of periodontal disease progression in the long-term as reported by Claffey \& Egelberg in1995. Residual probing depth (PPD) ≥5 mm after active therapy is a risk factor for disease progression and tooth loss during supportive periodontal therapy (SPT), suggesting that additi
