A 6-month home usage trial of a 1% chlorhexidine toothpaste (1). Effects on plaque, gingivitis, calculus and toothstaining.
TL;DR: If the local side-effects of chlorhexidine are considered to be acceptable, these chlor hexidine toothpastes could be recommended for the same clinical applications as other chlor Hexidine products.
Journal ArticleDOI
Utility of 5 major putative periodontal pathogens and selected clinical parameters to predict periodontal breakdown in patients on maintenance care
TL;DR: Findings indicate that one or more of 5 major putative periodontal pathogens in elevated subgingival proportions together with increased probing depth predispose adults on maintenance care to recurrent periodontitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The subgingival microbial flora associated with human dental implants
TL;DR: In this investigation the subgingival microbiologic flora associated with 17 gingival tissue-protruding dental implants was studied with direct phasecontrast microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Periodontal status of diabetic and non-diabetic men: effects of smoking, glycemic control, and socioeconomic factors.
TL;DR: It is indicated that diabetes significantly affects all measured parameters of periodontal status, including plaque indices, bleeding scores, probing depth, loss of attachment, and number of missing teeth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modulation by Progesterone of Interleukin-6 Production by Gingival Fibroblasts
TL;DR: High levels of progesterone during pregnancy are suggested to affect the development of localized inflammation by down-regulation of IL-6 production, rendering the gingiva less efficient at resisting the inflammatory challenges produced by bacteria.

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.
