  2. Aggressive periodontitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggressive_periodontitis

    Aggressive periodontitis is often characterised by a rapid loss of periodontal attachment associated with highly pathogenic bacteria and an impaired immune response. Various studies have associated Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans , formerly known as Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans , with aggressive periodontitis.

  3. Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggregatibacter...

    Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is a Gram-negative, facultative anaerobe, nonmotile bacterium that is often found in association with localized aggressive periodontitis, a severe infection of the periodontium. It is also suspected to be involved in chronic periodontitis. [1]

  4. List of periodontal diseases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_periodontal_diseases

    Aggressive periodontitis is distinguished from the chronic form mainly by the faster rate of progression. Loss of attachment may progress despite good oral hygiene and in the absence of risk factors such as smoking. Aggressive periodontitis may occur in younger persons and there may a genetic aspect, with the trait sometimes running in families ...

  5. Periodontitis as a manifestation of systemic disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodontitis_as_a...

    [1] [2] At least 16 systemic diseases have been linked to periodontitis. These systemic diseases are associated with periodontal disease because they generally contribute to either a decreased host resistance to infections or dysfunction in the connective tissue of the gums , increasing patient susceptibility to inflammation-induced destruction.

  6. Epidemiology of periodontal diseases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epidemiology_of...

    Aggressive periodontitis was found in 5.9% of the subjects (4.3% localized and 1.6% generalized). This was significantly associated with current smoking and ethnic origin (North African). [citation needed] Eres 2009 examined 3,056 students between the ages of 13 and 19 years at public schools in Turkey.

  7. Periodontal pathogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodontal_pathogen

    Dental plaque, the precursor of periodontal disease, is a complex biofilm consisting mainly of bacteria, but also archaea, protozoa, fungi and viruses. Viruses that specifically infect bacteria—bacteriophages—are most common in the oral cavity. Viral roles in the progression of periodontal disease as of 2017 remains poorly explored. [1]

  8. Furcation defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furcation_defect

    Bone loss from aggressive periodontitis that led to an exposed furcation on an upper molar. In health, the bone exists about a millimeter and a half away from the cementoenamel junction, which is the line that separates the crown from the root trunk (the line can be seen clearly in the photo).

  9. Bone destruction patterns in periodontal disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_destruction_patterns...

    The bone destruction patterns that occur as a result of periodontal disease generally take on characteristic forms. This X-ray film displays a horizontal defect . This X-ray film displays two lone-standing mandibular teeth, #21 and #22: the lower left first premolar and canine, exhibiting severe bone loss of 30-50%.
