Many researches on periodontal disease have sought a correlation between local and systemic factors. In Aggressive Periodontitis (AP), an exacerbated inflammatory response to some microorganisms has been reported, however, still little is known about the mechanisms linking these factors. The objectives of this study will be to evaluate some cytokines in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and…
Aggressive periodontitis (AP) is a disease with specific clinical and laboratory findings. The role of microbiota in the etiology of AP has been studied and the specificity can exist in different forms. Studies with AP show that the Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa) is implicated as the principal agent of this disease, especially in its localized form (LAP), although it can also …
Research on periodontal disease has traditionally focused on etiology, pathogenesis and treatment outcomes. Nonetheless, recently, several studies have indicated the onset of the disease is associated with low levels of quality of life. The aim of this study is to understand the experience of its impact on patients' quality of life with aggressive periodontitis (AP). The project has been …
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans(Aa) is an important periodontal pathogen that may be associated with aggressive periodontitis (AP) which is characterized by rapid attachment and bone loss. Aa possesses many virulence factors that can suppress or inactivate the host immune system. Aa shows several serotypes, including serotype b that is often associated with PA. The Aa JP2 clone (ser…
