Influence of sex hormones on the periodontium.

TL;DR: Despite profound research linking periodontal condition with sex hormones kinetics, more definitive molecular mechanisms and therapy still remain to be determined.

Increased interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) concentration in gingival tissue from periodontitis patients.

TL;DR: Human gingival tissues from periodontitis patients were found to contain up to 2161 fg/mg interleukin-1 beta as determined by a sensitive enzyme linked immunoassay, which may have important consequences relevant to connective tissue destruction and episodes of alveolar bone resorption characteristic of chronicperiodontitis.

Platelet‐Rich Plasma Combined With a Porous Hydroxyapatite Graft for the Treatment of Intrabony Periodontal Defects in Humans: A Comparative Controlled Clinical Study

TL;DR: Treatment with a combination of PRP and HA compared to HA with saline led to a significantly more favorable clinical improvement in intrabony periodontal defects.

Human Periodontal Cells Initiate Mineral-Like Nodules In Vitro

TL;DR: Differences in behavior between PDL cells and gingival fibroblasts may prove important in designing appropriate clinical therapies directed at stimulating periodontal regeneration.

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.

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.
