Journal ArticleDOI
Periodontal treatment of multirooted teeth. Results after 5 years.
TL;DR: In this paper, a system for classification and treatment of furcation involvements was described, and a 5-year post-operative evaluation of 100 patients treated for periodontal breakdown in the bi/tri-function areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial Adhesion on Commercially Pure Titanium and Zirconium Oxide Disks: An In Vivo Human Study
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that zirconium oxide may be a suitable material for manufacturing implant abutments with a low colonization potential and the disk surface covered by bacteria on test specimens was significantly lower than that of control specimens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure of the microbial flora associated with periodontal health and disease in man. A light and electron microscopic study.
TL;DR: The results suggest that a certain microbial flora may be compatible with a state ofperiodontal health and a different flora is associated with varying degrees of periodontal disease; the structure and composition of the supragingival flora differs markedly from that of the subgingival flora.
Journal Article
Periodontal risk assessment (PRA) for patients in supportive periodontal therapy (SPT).
TL;DR: A functional diagram may help the clinician in determining the risk for disease progression on the subject level and may be useful in customizing the frequency and content of SPT visits.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that transgenic plants can be used to produce high affinity, monoclonal secretory antibodies that can prevent specific microbial colonization in humans, and these findings could be extended to the immunotherapeutic prevention of other mucosal infections in humans and animals.

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
Daniel E. Ziskin,Gerald J Nesse +1 more
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.
