The clinical course of chronic periodontitis: V. Predictive factors in periodontal disease.

TL;DR: Increased mean CI and smoking were significant predictive covariates for progression, while increased mean GI and younger age predicted regression of initial periodontitis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison between histological and clinical parameters during human experimental gingivitis.

TL;DR: It was concluded that GI scores and GEFR reflect histologic changes in tissue and, hence, are valid indicators of gingivitis development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interleukin 4 (IL-4) and IL-6-producing memory T-cells in peripheral blood and gingival tissues in periodontitis patients with high serum antibody titers to Porphyromonas gingivalis

TL;DR: Memory T-cells with functional characteristics of Th2 could be a crucial cell population capable of reflecting individual susceptibility to periodontitis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immediate versus early or conventional loading dental implants with fixed prostheses: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled clinical trials.

TL;DR: Compared with early loading, immediate loading could achieve comparable implant survival rates and marginal bone level changes and was associated with a higher incidence of implant failure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Manifestations of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in the periodontium of young Brazilian patients.

TL;DR: The periodontal condition of patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus was evaluated in terms of plaque, gingival indices, pocket depth, and alveolar bone loss and no significant differences were obtained when the values were correlated with sex and age.

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.
