Periodontal diseases comprise a wide range of inflammatory conditions that affect the supporting structures of the teeth (the gingiva, bone and periodontal ligament), which could lead to tooth loss and contribute to systemic inflammation. Chronic periodontitis predominantly affects adults, but aggressive periodontitis may occasionally occur in children.

Periodontal Disease and Cardiovascular Disease
Journal of Periodontology, 1996It is our central hypothesis that periodontal diseases, which are chronic Gramnegative infections, represent a previously unrecognized risk factor for atherosclerosis and thromboembolic events. Previous studies have demonstrated an association between periodontal disease severity and risk of coronary heart disease and stroke.

Periodontal Disease and Periodontal Tissue Regeneration
Current Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2010Periodontal disease leads to destruction of the periodontium such as alveolar bone, cementum, the periodontal ligament, and gingiva. Effective treatment for periodontal tissue regeneration is important, because periodontal disease is related to several systemic diseases.

Topics in Companion Animal Medicine, 2008
Periodontal disease is the most commonly diagnosed problem in small animal veterinary medicine. In the vast majority of cases, however, there are little to no outward clinical signs of the disease process, and, therefore, therapy often comes very late in the disease course.

The Microbiology of Periodontal Disease
Dental Update, 1999Periodontal diseases result from mixed bacterial infections, in which both host resistance barriers and bacterial interactions are important. Approximately ten bacterial species are strongly implicated with various forms of periodontal disease, although species that cannot yet be cultivated are likely also to be relevant.

Treatment of Periodontal Disease
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1998Periodontal surgery is used to control advanced lesions affecting the support for teeth. The choice between conservative treatment and surgical treatment is a technical issue, but client compliance plays an important role. Excision surgical techniques (e.g., gingivectomy) and incisional surgical techniques (e.g., flap surgery) are described in this ...

The immunopathogenesis of periodontal disease
Australian Dental Journal, 2009AbstractTreatment planning in periodontics, as with any disease, must be based on an understanding of the aetiology and pathogenesis of the disease. In this context, it has slowly become recognized over the past three decades that while plaque is the cause of the disease, it is the innate susceptibility of the host that determines the ultimate outcome ...

Prescribing for Periodontal Disease
Primary Dental Journal, 2014With concerns about the ever-increasing development of antimicrobial resistance, it is imperative that antimicrobials are prescribed responsibly and used appropriately. This article provides an overview and simple guidelines for antimicrobial prescribing in the management of periodontal diseases.

Odontologic and periodontal diseases
Clinics in Dermatology, 1987Abstract The oral mucosa is not uncommonly involved in dermatologic disease. In fact, mucosal lesions may be the presenting manifestations of cutaneous disease, however, since a significant number of mucosal lesions may affect the epithelium and mucosa surrounding the teeth, the clinical appearance of such lesions may occasionally be confused with the

Integrins in periodontal disease
Experimental Cell Research, 2014Cell surface integrin receptors mediate cell adhesion, migration and cellular signaling in all nucleated cells. They are activated by binding to extracellular ligands or by intracellular proteins, such as kindlins that engage with their cytoplasmic tails.
