TLDR
How the new classification for periodontal diseases and conditions presented in this volume differs from the classification system developed at the 1989 World Workshop in Clinical Periodontics is summarized.Abstract:
Classification systems are necessary in order to provide a framework in which to scientifically study the etiology, pathogenesis, and treatment of diseases in an orderly fashion. In addition, such systems give clinicians a way to organize the health care needs of their patients. The last time scientists and clinicians in the field of periodontology and related areas agreed upon a classi- fication system for periodontal diseases was in 1989 at the World Workshop in Clinical Periodontics.1 Subsequently, a simpler classification was agreed upon at the 1st European Workshop in Periodontology.2 These classification systems have been widely used by clinicians and research scientists throughout the world. Unfortunately, the 1989 classification had many shortcomings including: 1) considerable overlap in disease categories, 2) absence of a gingival disease component, 3) inappropriate emphasis on age of onset of disease and rates of progression, and 4) inadequate or unclear classification criteria. The 1993 Europea...read more

The Short-Term Effectiveness of Non-Surgical Treatment in Reducing Levels of Interleukin-1β and Proteases in Gingival Crevicular Fluid From Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Chronic Periodontitis.
Fernanda O. B. Correa,Fernanda O. B. Correa,Daniela Aparecida de Godoi Gonçalves,Carlos Marcelo Figueredo,Carlos Marcelo Figueredo,Anders Gustafsson,Silvana Regina Perez Orrico +6 more
TL;DR: Non-surgical periodontal treatment was effective in reducing the levels of IL-1β, elastase activity, and MMP-8 and -9 in GCF from diabetes and control groups.

TL;DR: Desiccant, when combined to SRP, was demonstrated as a significant approach to control the levels of certain periodontal pathogens, inflammatory mediators in patients with CP.

TL;DR: periodontitis is significantly and positively correlated with LCs (except for myocardial infarction) after adjusting for confounding bias, and lifestyle-related diseases, erectile dysfunction, and osteoporosis seem to be intimately related to periodontitis.

Porphyromonas endodontalis in chronic periodontitis: a clinical and microbiological cross-sectional study
Telma Blanca Lombardo Bedran,Rosemary Adriana Chierici Marcantonio,Rubens Spin Neto,Marcia Pinto Alves Mayer,Daniel Grenier,Luis Carlos Spolidorio,Denise Madalena Palomari Spolidorio +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that there is a high prevalence of P. endodontalis, P. gingivalis and T. forsythia in periodontitis sites and that mechanical periodontal treatment is effective at reducing the pathogens studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence and magnitude of bacteraemia caused by flossing and by scaling and root planing.
TL;DR: No differences were found between flossing and SRP in the incidence or magnitude of total bacteraemia or VSB, and this finding is important in the ongoing re-evaluation of antibiotic prophylaxis to prevent infective endocarditis.

Natural history of periodontal disease in man. Rapid, moderate and no loss of attachment in Sri Lankan laborers 14 to 46 years of age.
TL;DR: In this paper, the initiation, rate of progress of periodontal disease and consequent tooth loss in a population never exposed to any programs or incidents relative to prevention and treatment of dental diseases was described.

Periodontal Diseases: Epidemiology
TL;DR: Although prevalence figures vary with race and geographic region, in most cases, the progression pattern of the disease seems compatible with the retention of a functional dentition throughout life, and most recent data indicate that periodontal disease may confer risk for coronary heart disease and pre-term low birth weight.

New concepts of destructive periodontal disease.
TL;DR: Comparison of monitored loss rates for a year with mean loss rates prior to monitoring suggested that there may be relatively short periods in an individual's life in which many sites undergo periodontal destruction followed by periods of extended remission.
