Distribution of Periodontal Pathogens in Korean Aggressive Periodontitis
Background: Microbial associations in aggressive periodontitis versus different ethnic origins are substantially unknown. We undertook this study to determine the prevalence of seven putative periodontopathogens in Korean patients and to evaluate microbial differences in localized and generalized aggressive periodontitis patients.Methods: Thirty‐nine ...

Eosinophilic Granuloma Masquerading as Aggressive Periodontitis
Background: Eosinophilic granuloma (EG) is the mildest and mainly localized form of the clinicopathologic spectrum of Langerhans' cell histiocytosis. It is a destructive osseous lesion characterized by a vast number of eosinophils and histiocytes. The etiology remains unknown.

Deep Learning for the Radiographic Detection of periodontal Bone Loss [PDF]
We applied deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to detect periodontal bone loss (PBL) on panoramic dental radiographs. We synthesized a set of 2001 image segments from panoramic radiographs. Our reference test was the measured % of PBL.

The correlation between interleukin-1β levels and aggressive periodontitis: A scoping review
Aggressive periodontitis is a multifactorial disease; the body’s immune response is one of the factors that contributed to the disease development. One of the responses is in the form of the secretion of cytokines—that is, interleukin-1β (IL-1β).

Decreased phagocytic function in neutrophils and monocytes from peripheral blood in periodontal disease [PDF]
Phagocytosis by neutrophils and monocytes constitutes the main defense mechanism against bacterial challenges in periodontitis. Phagocytosis by neutrophils has already been evaluated, whereas phagocytic function of monocytes has hardly been addressed ...
