Ardila CM, Granada MI, Guzmán IC. Antibiotic resistance of subgingival species in chronic periodontitis patients. J Periodont Res 2010; 45: 557–563. © 2010 John Wiley & Sons A/S Background and Objective: The increasing rate microorganisms to penicillin other antibiotics has generated concern among health authorities Latin America. present investigation determined the vitro susceptibility Porphyromonas gingivalis, Fusobacterium nucleatum, black-pigmented Prevotella spp. Aggregatibacter...
Purpose:The purpose of this study was to compare serum amyloid A (SAA) protein levels with high-sensitive C-reactive (hs-CRP) as markers systemic inflammation in patients chronic periodontitis.The association titers antibodies periodontal microbiota and SAA/hs-CRP periodontitis also studied.Methods: total 110 individuals were included study.Patients assessed for hs-CRP SAA.Nonfasting blood samples collected from participants at the time clinical examination.The diagnosis adipose tissue...
Background: Gram‐negative enteric rods were associated with periodontal diseases in several populations. The association between and putative pathogens has received little attention the literature. present investigation determined occurrence vitro antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates from Colombian patients chronic periodontitis. Methods: Clinical parameters sensitivity examined 76 periodontitis Medellin, Colombia. Subgingival samples processed using culture biochemical tests for...
The aim of the present study was to evaluate clinical and microbiological efficacy moxifloxacin (MOX) in one-stage scaling root planing (SRP) treating generalized aggressive periodontitis (GAgP).Forty subjects were randomly allocated two treatment groups. groups consisted SRP combined with systemically administered MOX at dosage 400 mg once daily for 7 days or + placebo days. Subgingival plaque samples analysed cultivable bacteria.Both resulted significant reduction probing depth (PD)...
The aim of the present study was to evaluate association between occurrence periodontopathogens with cortisol levels in chronic periodontitis patients.Seventy-five patients were invited participate study. Cortisol serum measured using an immunoassay method. Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) Tannerella forsythia, Treponema denticola, and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans detected by polymerase chain reaction primers designed target respective 16S rRNA gene sequences.Severe showed...
Background: Data on periodontal conditions in adolescents the Dominican Republic are scarce. The aim of present crosssectional study was to estimate prevalence attachment loss among adolescents. This did not attempt classify disease into aggressive and chronic periodontitis. Methods: A random sample 2,007 obtained. probability, weighted selected using a complex, multi‐stage probability sampling design. clustered 26 schools 106 classes. subjects were clinically examined under field by single...
<p><strong>BACKGROUND:</strong> It has been reported that clinical results of mechanical periodontal treatment could differ between subjects and among different sites the tooth in patient. The objective this multilevel analysis is to investigate factors at subject influence variations attachment (CAL) increase probing depth (PD) diminution adjunctive moxifloxacin (MOX) six months post-treatment generalized aggressive periodontitis.</p>...

Methods Forty patients were randomly distributed two therapy protocols: + placebo or combined with detected using culture methods. significance treatment option placebo) dependent variables (probing depth [ PD ] attachment...
To evaluate whether the levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody to Tanerella forsythia are associated with periodontal status.Patients a diagnosis chronic periodontitis were considered candidates for study; thus 80 patients and 28 healthy persons (control group) invited participate in this investigation. The presence T. was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis using primers designed target respective 16S rRNA gene sequences. Peripheral blood collected from each subject...
To investigate the association between presence of Porphyromonas gingivalis-induced immunoglobulin G antibodies and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) level.A total 108 individuals were examined. The P. gingivalis was detected using primers designed to target 16S rRNA gene sequence. Peripheral blood collected from each subject determine levels IgG1 IgG2 serum antibodies. HDL determined fully enzymatic methods.A higher proportion periodontitis patients had high IgG2, subjects with a level < 35...
Antibody levels to some periodontal pathogens are associated with enhanced of inflammatory markers.The purpose the current study was examine relative contribution serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) subclass antibody level factors and local on probing pocket depth in chronic periodontitis.Serum samples were taken from 444 patients diagnosed moderate severe periodontitis 223 control subjects.The IgG titers Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa) Tanerella forsythia...
