Chronic periodontitis is a common disease of the oral cavity consisting of chronic inflammation of the periodontal tissues that is caused by the accumulation of profuse amounts of dental plaque.

Periodontitis is an oral health condition that causes sore, bleeding, swollen gums. Left untreated, periodontitis can lead to tooth loss, bone loss, bad breath and other oral health problems.

2022年6月9日 · Attachment and bone loss associated with periodontal disease are results of the body’s immune response to plaque biofilm and its metabolic byproducts.

Chronic periodontitis is a common disease characterized by a painless, slow progression. It may occur in most age groups, but is most prevalent among adults and seniors worldwide, with approximately 35% of adults (30–90 years) in the US being affected by at least one site with CAL ≥ 3 mm and probing depth (PD) ≥4 mm. 2

Scientific evidence is lacking for determining cost-effectiveness and patient-perceived quality with regard to the various methods of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of chronic periodontitis.

Chronic periodontitis is clinic-ally diagnosed when supporting tissue has been lost and the perio-dontal pocket bleeds on probing. Chronic periodontitis has a pre-valence of up to 40 percent in the adult population, whereas more extensive tissue destruction occurs in 7–20 percent.

2023年5月1日 · Cases of chronic periodontitis (CP) are associated with a plethora of plaque and calculus. [13] While the characteristic feature of aggressive periodontitis (AgP) is the familial aggregation of disease, increased amount of periodontal destruction with …

Periodontitis is a chronic multifactorial inflammatory disease associated with the accumulation of dental plaque (which will be referred to as dental biofilm/biofilm), and characterised by progressive destruction of the teeth-supporting apparatus, including the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. 1,2 The disease involves complex dynamic inte...

2024年11月1日 · Untreated severe chronic periodontitis often presents with a myriad of clinical and radiographic findings, including gingival inflammation, severe clinical attachment loss, purulent exudate, mobile teeth, pathologic tooth migration, severe alveolar bone loss, and furcation defects. 1,2 A thorough understanding of the underlying causes of clinica...
