Setting: Institute of Psychiatry-FMUSP (Ipq-FMUSP). Subjects: cases: patients seeking for treatment or under treatment for CG (Group 1), and patients with normal grief (Group 2). Controls: Hospital staff at the HC-FMUSP or volunteers from a list of other studies conducted at the Ipq-FMUSP (Group 3). Method. Psychiatric evaluation: Structured Clinical Interview (SCID), Texas Revised Inventory of Grief (TRIG) and clinical interview. Intervention: instruction of oral hygiene. Dental evaluation: probing depth, clinical attachment level, bleeding on probing, and frequency of plaque at six sites per tooth. Procedures: all participants will complete the psychiatry and dental evaluation at baseline. The bleeding on probing and frequency of plaque will be recorded at baseline, once a week (1 month follow-up) and at 3 months. The probing depth and clinical attachment level will be recorded at baseline and at 3 months. After 3 months, the patients will be referred for dental treatment.
