Volatile sulphur compounds (VSC) such as hydrogen sulphide and methyl mercaptan are toxic bacterial metabolites considered to contribute to the progression of periodontitis. However, the quantitative determination of sulcular VSC concentration requires costly time-consuming laboratory methods limiting its evaluation in large clinical trials. Recently, a portable monitor with a sulphide microsensor has been developed to measure sulcular VSC levels (SU). This cross-sectional study evaluated 1) the clinical usage of the sulphide sensor system, 2) the reproducibility of SU-measurements, 3) the distribution of SU-values in periodontal health and disease and 4) the relationship between SU and clinical parameters documenting periodontal disease severity.
