Prevalence of periodontal pathogens in Brazilians with aggressive or chronic periodontitis

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 2005
AbstractObjectives: Previous studies suggest differences between geographically and racially distinct populations in the prevalence of periodontopathic bacteria as well as greater periodontal destruction associated with infection by highly leucotoxic Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans.

Alcohol Consumption and Periodontitis: Quantification of Periodontal Pathogens and Cytokines

Journal of Periodontology, 2015
Background: There are few studies on periodontal status related to microbiologic and immunologic profiles among individuals not or occasionally using alcohol and those with alcohol dependence. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of alcohol consumption on the levels of subgingival periodontal pathogens and proinflammatory cytokines ...

Prevalence of periodontitis and suspected periodontal pathogens in families of adult periodontitis patients

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 1994
Abstract The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of periodontopathic microorganisms and periodontal destruction in the spouses and children of adult periodontitis patients. For this study, 24 families were selected on the basis of one parent with severe periodontal breakdown and the presence of Actinobacillus ...

Identification of Periodontal Pathogens in Atheromatous Plaques

Journal of Periodontology, 2000
Background: Recent studies suggest that chronic infections including those associated with periodontitis increase the risk for coronary vascular disease (CVD) and stroke. We hypothesize that oral microorganisms including periodontal bacterial pathogens enter the blood stream during transient bacteremias where they may play a role in the development and

Phototargeting human periodontal pathogens in vivo

Lasers in Medical Science, 2013
The effects of blue light at 455 nm were investigated on the bacterial composition of human dental plaque in vivo. Eleven subjects who refrained from brushing for 3 days before and during phototherapy participated in the study. Light with a power density of 70 mW/cm(2) was applied to the buccal surfaces of premolar and molar teeth on one side of the ...

Risk Indicators for Harboring Periodontal Pathogens

Journal of Periodontology, 1998
The risk for harboring 6 putative periodontal pathogens in 4 selected periodontal pockets, in whole saliva, or in either site (i.e., orally) was determined in 52 Caucasians, 49 African‐Americans, 48 Asian‐Americans, and 50 Hispanics living in Los Angeles.

DNA probe detection of periodontal pathogens

Oral Microbiology and Immunology, 1986
The technology for hybridization of nucleic acids using isotopically labeled whole genomic or species‐specific cloned deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) probes for Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Bacteroides intermedius and Bacleroides gingivulis can be used to detect as few as 102 cells of these periodontal pathogens. The sensitivity and specificity of

Glycosylation orchestrates virulence and pathogenicity of periodontal keystone pathogens

Critical Reviews in Microbiology
Periodontal diseases, chronic inflammatory conditions initiated by dysbiotic microbial communities, are predominantly driven by the "red complex" pathogens. This review explores how glycosylation on surface molecules of Tannerella forsythia, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Treponema denticola modulate their pathogenesis.
