Etiology of Gingivitis
Gingival lesions not induced by plaque are common and can help explain the many different periodontal tissue reactions observed. Gingival inflammation sometimes differs from that of routine plaque-associated gingival diseases and often presents distinctive clinical features. (Holmstrup, 1999a). The causes of non-plaque-induced gingival diseases include bacterial, viral, and fungal infections, g...
متن کاملEffect of TNF-α Blockade in Gingival Crevicular Fluid on Periodontal Condition of Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background: Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) share a number of clinical and pathologic features, one of which is the presence of the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α)-induced bone resorption that is involved in the pathogenesis of both. Objectives: To investigate the effect of TNF-α blockade on periodontal conditions in patients with active RA. Method: The periodontal statuses of 3...
متن کاملTreatment for Periodontal Disease
Periodontal (gum) disease, which is also known as periodontal disease and periodontitis, is a progressive disease which if left untreated may result in tooth loss. Gum disease begins with the inflammation and irritation of the gingival tissues which surround and support the teeth. The cause of this inflammation is the toxins found in plaque, or biofilm, which cause an ongoing bacterial infection.
متن کاملComponents of Host Response to Pathogenic Bacteria in Gingivitis
A classification based on infection as the principal etiology of periodontal diseases divides categories based on gingival inflammation and periodontal attachment loss and recognized health, gingivitis and periodontitis as separate entities (Armitage 1999). Separation of gingivitis from periodontitis suggests that there are differences in these conditions that might include type or severity of ...
متن کاملRNAi-Mediated Silencing of Atp6i and Atp6i Haploinsufficiency Prevents Both Bone Loss and Inflammation in a Mouse Model of Periodontal Disease
Periodontal disease affects about 80% of adults in America, and is characterized by oral bacterial infection-induced gingival inflammation, oral bone resorption, and tooth loss. Periodontitis is also associated with other diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, and heart disease. Although many efforts have been made to develop effective therapies for this disease, none have been very e...
