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.

Diagnosing Periodontal Diseases
The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1990At present, the diagnosis of periodontal disease requires a clinical evaluation of the patient including visual findings, the use of the periodontal probe, and radiographs. No test is available to evaluate disease activity. In specific cases, adjunctive procedures may also be useful. The identification of pathogenic microorganisms may aid in evaluating

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.

Periodontal Disease Progression
Journal of Periodontology, 2000Background: The objective of this investigation is to use noninvasive, state‐of‐the‐art, diagnostic techniques to measure periodontal disease progression and model periodontal disease activity over time. In this investigation, digital subtraction radiography and an electronic controlled force periodontal probe capable of attachment level measurement ...

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.

Destructive Membranous Periodontal Disease (Ligneous Periodontitis)
Journal of Periodontology, 1999Generalized membranous gingival enlargement due to accumulation of amyloid or fibrin‐like material is a rare, destructive and poorly defined disease entity. Some patients also show extraoral manifestations. The lesion is an involvement of periodontal tissues caused by the same process as ligneous conjunctivitis. In this report, 3 new cases, two of whom

The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1984
New forms of patient education are needed to increase the periodontal disease awareness of the general public. Patients are more likely to seek professional treatment for periodontal disease when they are aware of its existence. The general practitioner should be encouraged, through the dental literature and continuing education courses, to assume ...

Periodontal Diseases: Epidemiology
Annals of Periodontology, 19961. The interpretation of epidemiological data of periodontal disease is difficult, due to inconsistencies in the methodology used. It is not possible, therefore, to accurately assess if the prevalence of the periodontal diseases shows a world-wide decline. As long as the disease is assessed through accumulated clinical attachment loss, retention of the

Periodontal Diseases: Pathogenesis
Annals of Periodontology, 1996Question Set 1. What are the important destructive mechanisms in periodontal diseases? 2. What are the important protective mechanisms in periodontal diseases? 3. What are the important genetic factors and what is the state-of-the art relative to assessing these genetic factors in periodontal diseases? 4.
