Transient gingival inflammation is associated with epithelial dysfunction and systemic immune activation beyond clinical improvement

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The oral cavity significantly influences systemic health. Gingivitis, an early reversible stage of periodontal disease, may trigger systemic immune changes by facilitating bacterial translocation. This study examined the immune responses elicited by experimental gingivitis and their systemic immune impact, specifically in relation ...
