Popis: Objective:Thiols are antioxidant organic compounds with sulfhydryl group. Dynamic thiol/disulphide homeostasis is considered a marker of oxidative stress. This study aimed to determine disulphide and thiol levels in patients with generalised stage III grade C periodontitis and to investigate the relationship between biochemical and clinical periodontal parameters, namely, bleeding on probing (BOP), clinical attachment level (CAL) and probing pocket depth (PPD).Materials and Methods:Forty-eight individuals participated in the study (control, n=23; periodontitis, n=25). BOP, CAL and PPD values of the groups were recorded before and after non-surgical periodontal treatment. Thiol disulphide homeostasis was assessed by an automatic and a new spectrophotometric method. Percentages of disulphide/total thiol, disulphide/native thiol and native thiol/total thiol were calculated.Results:The clinical periodontal parameters of the periodontitis group were higher (p
