Gingival Crevicular Fluid Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein Levels in Health and Stage III/IV Periodontitis
Sponsor: shaimaa hamdy
Summary
Periodontitis is a chronic, multifactorial inflammatory disease primarily caused by dysbiotic plaque biofilms, characterized by the progressive destruction of the supporting structures of the teeth. In advanced stages (Stage III/IV), periodontitis leads to significant attachment and bone loss, often culminating in tooth loss and a negative impact on the patient's quality of life. Recent evidence has emphasized the systemic implications of periodontal inflammation, suggesting a bidirectional relationship between periodontitis and various systemic conditions, especially cardiovascular diseases
