Assessment of familial patterns of microbial infection in periodontitis.

Journal of periodontology - 1 Nov 1999

Irfan U M, Dawson D V, Bissada N F

Abstract excerpt

The purpose of this article is to review approaches to the assessment of familial patterns of microbial infection and disease in periodontitis, and to identify statistical methods appropriate to such considerations of family data. Previous studies have provided evidence for the presence of familial aggregation of periodontal pathogens and periodontitis and have alluded to possible transmissibility of these...
