By using qPCR system, women as well as men were found to have an equal periodontal pathogen colonization. However, the women are subjected to have a higher risk of chronic periodontitis onsets. Women with the chronic periodontitis usually expose an evident hypercolonization with a single pathogen. P. gingivalis is the most prevalent causative agent of the chronic periodontitis in women but not in men. In health as well as in the chronic periodontitis a complex of periodontal pathogens forms such as P. gingivalis, P. intermedia, T. forsythensis and T. denticola. T. forsythensis demonstrates the highest correlation with the chronic periodontitis onset in men. Our data allow us to prove T. forsythensis playing the key role in the forming of periodontal pathogen complex.
Хрониче ский генерализованный пародонтитинфекционно-воспалительный процесс, который характеризуется прогрессивной деструкцией пародонтальной связки и костной ткани альвеолы, приводящей к выпадению зубов [1]. Пародонтит является полиэтиологичным заболеванием, вызванным как генетическими, так и внешними факторами, такими как неудовлетворительная гигиена полости
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
