“…If the gingival chronic inflammation is left, some teeth sites may develop periodontitis, characterized by irreversible alveo-lar bone loss. Recent evidence of untreated sites of periodontitis among adults showed that bone loss progressed at 1mm per 8.4 months on average 26 . The time it takes for gingivitis to progress to periodontitis is unknown and could take years; however, gingivitis is a necessary condition.…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between income inequality at a lagged time of 2 and 11 years with two short latency outcomes (untreated dental caries and gingivitis) and two long latency outcomes (edentulism and periodontal attachment loss > 8mm). We used data from the Brazilian oral health survey in 2002-2003. Our analysis included 13,405 subjects aged 35-44 years. Different lagged Gini at municipal level were fitted using logistic and negative binomial multilevel analyses. Covariates included municipal per capita income, equivalized income, age, sex, time since last dental visit and place of residence (rural versus urban). Crude estimates showed that only untreated dental caries was associated with current and lagged Gini, but in adjusted models only current Gini remained significant with a ratio of 1.19 (95%CI: 1.09-1.30) for every ten-point increase in the Gini coefficient. We conclude that lagged Gini showed no association with oral health; and current income Gini was associated with current dental caries but not with periodontal disease.

“…It was demonstrated that results of subtraction radiolography were strongly associated with CAL relative to the frequency and pattern of disease activity measured by automated periodontal probes. 20,21 Despite the improved sensitivity and accuracy of the subtraction technique, detecting variations in bone still requires sequential observations over time.Microbiologic testing has been an important tool in determining the effects of therapy, predicting disease recurrence, and aiding in the choice of specific adjunctive antibiotics. 22 Although the gold standard in the field remains bacterial counting, a number of immune diagnostic methods were established to provide quantitative or semiquantitative estimates of oral microorganisms; these include direct or indirect immunofluorescent microscopy assays, flow cytometry, enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), membrane assays and latex agglutination, multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and real-time PCR.…”

There are several well-known inherent drawbacks with current clinical procedures. The purpose of this review is to summarize some of the newly emerging diagnostic approaches, namely, infrared spectroscopy, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and ultrasound. The history and attractive features of these new approaches are briefly illustrated, and the interesting and significant inventions related to dental applications are discussed. The particularly attractive aspects for the dental community are that some of these methods are totally non-invasive, do not impose any discomforts to the patients during the procedure, and require no tissue to be extracted. For instance, multiple inflammatory indices withdrawn from near infrared spectra have the potential to identify early signs of inflammation leading to tissue breakdown. Morphologically, some other non-invasive imaging modalities, such as OCT and ultrasound, could be employed to accurately measure probing depths and assess the status of periodontal attachment, the front-line of disease progression. Given that these methods reflect a completely different assessment of periodontal inflammation, if clinically validated, these methods could either replace traditional clinical examinations for the diagnosis of periodontitis or at least serve as attractive complementary diagnostic tools. However, the potential of these techniques should be interpreted more cautiously given the multifactorial character of periodontal disease. In addition to these novel tools in the field of periodontal inflammatory diseases, other alternative modalities like microbiologic and genetic approaches are only briefly mentioned in this review because they have been thoroughly discussed in other comprehensive reviews.Periodontitis is an endemic infectious disease of the tissues surrounding the teeth occurring in 50% of the population and may result in significant debilitation for about half of these persons. 1As the leading cause of edentulism, periodontitis may also have important implications for systemic health including an increased risk for cardiovascular disease and low birth weight/preterm delivery.2 According to a report by the World Health Organization, 3 severe periodontitis leading to tooth loss was found in 5% to 15% of most populations worldwide. Therefore, it is considered one of the most important global oral health burdens.Periodontitis is a multifactorial disease with microbial dental plaque as the in...
