Radiography-based score indicative for the pathogenicity of bacteria in odontogenic infections

Abstract

The radiography-based score suggests that certain Prevotella spp., F. nucleatum and Strep. anginosus groups play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of odontogenic abscesses, and that various streptococci, Neisseria spp., Capnocytophaga spp., Staph. aureus and Prevotella spp. are involved in the pathogenesis of odontogenic infiltrates.

Infección cervical profunda de origen dental. Descripción de un caso

“…Prevotella ssp is isolated in 3.6% of cultures in ICP [1]. The relative risk of finding P. buccae in an odontogenic abscess is 2.86 and in an infiltrate 2.94 [9].…”

“…Prevotella buccae is the strict anaerobic bacterium Gram negative [4] most prevalent in periodontal disease [2], it is usually present in the microflora of the mouth, the gastrointestinal tract and the vagina [7]. It is also found in oral bacterial plaque [8], in periodontal pockets in 60.4% of cases [2], in radicular cysts [4], in periapical abscesses in non-endodontically and necrotic teeth [3] and in odontogenic abscesses [3,4,9].…”

“…The proteolytic activity of P. buccae (and especially of P. intermedia and P. nigrescens) explains its ability to extend through the cervical planes [4]. Prevotella spp, F. nucleatum and S. anginosus are involved in the pathogenesis of odontogenic abscesses [9]. P. buccae, P. oris, P. intermedia and P. oralis predominate in large abscesses [9].…”

“…Prevotella spp, F. nucleatum and S. anginosus are involved in the pathogenesis of odontogenic abscesses [9]. P. buccae, P. oris, P. intermedia and P. oralis predominate in large abscesses [9].…”
