The article discusses the major antigens of porphyromonas gingivalis, a gram-negative
bacteria which is found in the oral cavity. It is stated that the antigens induce an overall …

Gingipains are the major virulence factors of Porphyromonas gingivalis, the main
periodontopathogen. It is expected that inhibition of gingipain activity in vivo could prevent or …

Objective—To determine whether severity of periodontal disease (PD) was associated with

The mechanical therapy with multiple doses of antibiotics is one of modalities for treatment
of periodontal diseases. However, treatments using multiple doses of antibiotics carry risks …

Periodontitis is a prevalent polymicrobial disease. It damages soft tissues and alveolar bone,
and causes a significant public-health burden. Development of an advanced therapeutic …

An abscess in a gum pocket, resulting from bacterial infection, is a common source of
chronic halitosis. Although antibiotics are generally prescribed for abscesses, they require …

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are central mediators of innate antimicrobial and inflammatory
responses and play instructive roles in the development of the adaptive immune response …

Background Peri‐implant disease (PID) has not been directly linked to pathological organ
changes. The present study assessed the dynamics of serum biochemical parameters in a …

Halitosis (bad breath) is estimated to influence more than half of the world's population with
varying degree of intensity. More than 85% of halitosis originates from oral bacterial …

Chronic periodontitis is associated with P orphyromonas gingivalis infection. Although
virulence factors of P. gingivalis are hypothesized to contribute to the pathogenesis of …
