Coming soonPeriodontitis is a chronic, multifactorial inflammatory disease affecting the periodontium—the gingiva, periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone supporting the dentition.
It arises from a dysbiotic subgingival microbial biofilm that triggers a maladaptive host immune response, predominantly affecting adults but capable of occurring across diverse populations.
Clinically and pathophysiologically, the condition is defined by gingival inflammation, pathological periodontal pocket formation, progressive loss of clinical periodontal attachment, and radiographically detectable alveolar bone resorption, which can ultimately culminate in tooth mobility and tooth loss.
