Sex and the subgingival microbiome: Do female sex steroids affect periodontal bacteria?

TL;DR: The evidence in the literature on the effect of female sex steroids on oral bacterial communities is reviewed to critically examine the evidence between gingivitis and increases in systemic sex steroids.
Journal ArticleDOI

IL-17 in Sera from Patients with Aggressive Periodontitis

TL;DR: Multivariate analyses demonstrated associations of IL-17 concentrations with periodontal attachment loss, but not with current smoking, and Th17 responses may be characteristic of AgP, and IL- 17 may play a role in the pathogenesis of aggressive periodontitis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Computer-assisted densitometric image analysis (CADIA) for the assessment of alveolar bone density changes in furcations.

TL;DR: The results indicate that CADIA may give valuable additional diagnostic information regarding alveolar bone density changes in furcations in studies on periodontal therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation of collagenolytic enzymes and inhibitors in gingival crevicular fluid with clinical and microscopic changes in experimental periodontitis in the dog.

TL;DR: In this paper, the quadrants of the jaw in 2 beagle dogs had various forms of periodontal disease induced by ligatures placed around second, third and fourth premolars in one quadrant and, 2.5 months later, around the same teeth in a second quadrant; gingivitis was allowed to develop in a third quadrant after 4 months; the fourth quadrant served as a healthy control.

Severe Pregnancy Complication (Preeclampsia) Is Associated With Greater Periodontal Destruction

TL;DR: Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-specific disease which is one of the leading causes of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality, and recent evidence links atherosclerosis with chronic infection, and a possible link between periodontal inflammation and preeclamping is suggested.

Indices for Prevalence and Incidence of Periodontal Disease

TL;DR: When the extent and distribution of the disease has been investigated, the available information is utilized in search for etiological factors and studies of the nature of the Disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

A System of Classification and Scoring for Prevalence Surveys of Periodontal Disease

TL;DR: A method for scoring the effects of periodontal disease which permits quantitative comparisons between or within human populations, and which may be applied swiftly and with a minimum of equipment in the field is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pregnancy gingivitis: History, classification, etiology

TL;DR: The histologic changes apparently do not arise from a single etiological factor, but are a manifestation of the altered nutritional and the metabolic status of the individual during pregnancy, and the immediate cause of the gingival changes appears to be a diminished utilization of estrogen or a modification of estrogen metabolism.
