Genetic variations in cytokine expression: a risk factor for severity of adult periodontitis.

Annals of periodontology - 1 Jul 1998

Kornman K S, di Giovine F S

Abstract excerpt

Periodontitis is a collection of chronic inflammatory diseases that are caused by specific bacteria. The bacteria activate inflammatory mechanisms in the periodontal tissues that destroy collagen and bone that support the teeth. Although bacteria are essential for the initiation of periodontitis, the quantity and types of bacteria have not been sufficient to explain the differences in disease severity. In recent...
