Periodontal diseases are local infections that present morbidity and have been relation with others systemic diseases or complications. Smoking patients present high levels and bigger predisposition to the severe and advanced periodontal diseases. The systemic administration of antibiotics, mainly metronidazole (M) and amoxicillin (A), associated to the mechanical periodontal treatment (scaling and root planing SRP) has been largely researched referring to the chronic periodontal diseases. However, not much has been cleared up referring to the effects of those treatments about Porphyromonas gingivalis and its genotypes. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the clinical effects (depth probing DP, clinical attachment level CAL, plaque index PI, gingival bleeding GB, bleeding on probing BOP, and supuration SUP) and microbiological (referring to the presence of P. gingivalis and its genotypes fimA II, fimA IV and ragB) after 180 days of the mechanical periodontal treatment (SRP) associated to the systemic administration of antibiotic (SRP+M+A), compared to the mechanical periodontal treatment (SRP) in smoking patients with chronic periodontitis, by using the conventional PCR (specific primers to the 16S rRNA); to associate the P. gingivalis presence and its genotypes fimA II, fimA IV and ragB with depth probing (DP) of the researched population. 167 samples from the sites of 20 subjects treated with SRP (n=11) and SRP+M+A (n=9) have been evaluated, at the baseline and 180 days after the therapy. Clinical parameters (DP, CAL, PI, GB, BOP and SUP) and microbiological samples were evaluated in both moments. The detection of P. gingivalis frequence was made by using conventional PCR, and also to the genotypes fimA II, fimA IV and ragB. There was no statistically significative difference between the mechanical periodontal treatment associated to the systemic administration of antibiotics (SRP+M+A) and the mechanical periodontal treatment (SRP), in the smoking patients, related to the detection of the P. gingivalis. The SRP group showed more effective (statiscally significative) on the reduction of the genotype ragB prevalence, comparing to the SRP+M+A group, after 180 days of therapy. No statistically significative relation between the prevalence of P. gingivalis and its genotypes fimA II, fimA IV e ragB with DP at the baseline have been observed.
