description Background and objectives: Chronic periodontitis is an inflammatory disorders associated to the accumulation of microbial biofilm and the response of host to this accumulation. In our society the importance of total WBC counts has not yet been investigated with chronic periodontitis. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of treatment on total WBC counts in subjects with chronic periodontitis. Materials and methods: A total of 50 subjects were selected for the study. Venous blood samples were taken at base line and 4 weeks after non-surgical periodontal therapy for the study group (group II), and one time for the control group (group I) to estimate total WBC counts. Clinical parameters such as Plaque Index, Gingival Index, probing pocket depth, the clinical attachment level for group II were measured. Results: The result of the present study shows a highly significant decrease of total WBC counts between group I and II before treatment P value=0.004. Our results indicate that there is a highly significant decrease of Gingival Index and probing pocket depth at base line compared with after treatment P value=0.003 and 0.000 respectively. Also, a significant decrease in Plaque Index and clinical attachment level at base line and 4 weeks following therapy P value=0.035 and 0.026 respectively. In addition, a significant decrease of total WBC counts at base line and 4 weeks following therapy P value=0.016. Statistical tests were done by standard program data processing (MS excel) paired t test. Conclusion: The present study concludes that total WBC counts were decreased after non- surgical periodontal therapy
