Management of chronic periodontitis using diode laser and tetracycline fibers
Periodontal disease is host immune-mediated inflammatory disease with periods of progression and periods of remission. It results in the breakdown of supporting connective tissue and alveolar bone with the resultant permanent loss of the teeth.

The association of healthy eating index with periodontitis in NHANES 2013–2014
BackgroundPeriodontal disease is very common worldwide and is one of the main causes of tooth loss in adults. Periodontal disease is characterized by chronic inflammation that can destroy adjacent alveolar bone and lead to a loss of periodontal ligaments.
