Effect of micronutrient malnutrition on periodontal disease and periodontal therapy
Periodontology 2000, 2018AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex chronic inflammatory noncommunicable disease, initiated by the development of a dysbiotic microbial plaque biofilm below the gingival margin. Whilst the pathogenic biofilm is a “necessary cause” of periodontitis, it is insufficient on its own to cause the disease, and a destructive immune‐inflammatory response is a ...
