Toll-like receptor–4 gene polymorphisms in Javanese aggressive and chronic periodontitis patients
Background: Tool-like receptor-4 (TLR4) gene polymorphisms affect the ability of the host in response to pathogenic bacteria, and can also be associated with the severity of periodontitis.

Abstract This case report highlights the experience of one maxillofacial surgical patient who delayed prosthodontic treatment for 7 years as they saved to self‐fund access to a subsidized prosthodontic service. Without the benefit of a restored opposing dentition for a prolonged period of time, maxillary occlusal plane disruption occurred as a ...

Plasminogen is a genetic risk factor of periodontitis [PDF]
Periodontitis involves inflammation of the periodontium, bacterial infection, degradation of gum tissue, and alveolar bone resorption, which eventually leads to teeth loss.
