Periodontal Destruction Is Associated With Coronary Artery Disease and Periodontal Infection With Acute Coronary Syndrome

TL;DR: Patients with severe CAD defined by multiple vessel disease had significantly more periodontal destruction than those with mild CAD, as shown by mean clinical attachment level, a measure of chronicperiodontal disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term effect of two preventive programs on the incidence of plaque and gingivitis in adolescents.

TL;DR: The efficacy of two oral hygiene training programs on the control of plaque and the prevention of gingival inflammation in adolescents was evaluated during a 3-year period and improvements observed in the comprehensive group were significantly better than that of the control group.
Journal ArticleDOI

A clinical study of the relationship between crowding of teeth, plaque and gingival condition

TL;DR: In a group of young adults, crowding of teeth did not favour plaque accumulation on approximal tooth surfaces and influenced the degree of gingival inflammation only to a minor extent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenotypic assessment of early onset periodontitis in sibships.

TL;DR: Assessment of within and among family variability remains the best approach for recognition of possible causal mechanisms and sources of heterogeneity in early onset periodontitis.

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.

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.
