Journal ArticleDOI
The interleukin-1 genotype as a severity factor in adult periodontal disease
Kenneth S. Kornman,Allison Crane,Hwa-Ying Wang,Francesco S.di Giovlne,Michael G. Newman,Frederick W. Pirk,Thomas G. Wilson,Frank L. Higginbottom,Gordon W. Duff +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that specific genetic markers, that have been associated with increased IL-1 production, are a strong indicator of susceptibility to severe periodontitis in adults.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies of the Microbiology of Periodontosis
TL;DR: The nature of the microbiota in the depths of the periodontosis pocket is investigated as a prerequisite to the understand ing of the role which microorganisms might play in this unusual clinical condition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interleukin-1 genetic association with periodontitis in clinical practice
Michael J. McDevitt,Hwa-Ying Wang,Carol Knobelman,Michael G. Newman,Francesco S. di Giovine,Janice Timms,Gordon W. Duff,Kenneth S. Kornman +7 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that the composite IL-1 genotype is significantly associated with the severity of adult periodontitis and confirmed that both IL- 1 genotyping and smoking history provide objective risk factors for periodontal disease in a private practice environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial invasion of gingiva in advanced periodontitis in humans.
TL;DR: Using scanning electron microscopy, bacteria were found invading the epithelial wall of deep periodontal pockets in five out of eight cases and bacteria had reached the connective tissue in one case.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical and antimicrobial effect of stannous fluoride on periodontitis
TL;DR: The antimicrobial effect of stannous fluoride (SnF2) on suspected pathogenic morphotypes of bacterial plaque in chronic periodontal disease was assessed and bleeding index scores, which were significantly reduced, correlated positively to the reduction in motile bacteria and spirochetes.
