The rationale for the daily use of an antimicrobial mouthrinse.

TL;DR: The daily use of an effective antiplaque/antigingivitis antimicrobial mouthrinse is well-supported by a scientific rationale and can be a valuable component of oral hygiene regimens.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of root planing as compared to that of surgical treatment.

TL;DR: Root planing resulted in considerable reduction in pocket depth, although more shallow pockets were obtained following modified Widman flap and reverse bevel flap surgery, and clinical gain of attachment was obtained following all 3 modalities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Longitudinal evaluation of GCF MMP‐3 and TIMP‐1 levels as prognostic factors for progression of periodontitis

TL;DR: Site with high GCF levels of MMP-3 and TIMP-1 are at significantly greater risk for progression of periodontitis, and step-wise multiple regression analysis was performed to construct models for the prediction of probing depth and attachment loss increases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation between the BANA Test and Oral Malodor Parameters

TL;DR: The results suggest that the BANA scores are associated with a component of oral malodor which is independent of volatile sulphide measurements and suggest its use as an adjunct test to volatile sulphides measurement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of water-soluble reduced chitosan on Streptococcus mutans, plaque regrowth and biofilm vitality

TL;DR: The water-soluble reduced chitosan exhibited potent antibacterial effect on S. mutans, and displayed a significant antibacterial and plaque-reducing action during the 4-day plaque regrowth.

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.
