Background and ObjectivesIn the oral cavity, the epithelial surface is constantly exposed to a number of different microorganisms that are organized in a well-structured biofilm. The aim of this study was to monitor gingival expression of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) ...
1st stage of gum disease (Gingivitis) gingival = gums, itis = inflammation Characteristics of the 1st stage of gum disease (Gingivitis) Calculus along your sensitive gum line is changed into a rough surface on which plaque accumulates.
The Stages of Gum Disease There are four stages of gum disease, although the lines between these are a bit blurred. Stage I: Gingivitis This first stage of gum disease refers to inflammation of the gums. Bacteria and plaque build up gradually over time along your gingival sulcus. Toxins re...
Gingivitis, an inflammation of the gums, develops when plaque that contains bacteria slowly builds up on your teeth and gums. Given time, the toxins released by the built-up plaque begins to damage your teeth and gums, making them sensitive, irritated, and puffy. Prolonging gingivitis can lea...
It’s a condition of the gingival tissue that happens because of an accumulation of plaque and calculus on the teeth, particularly below the line of the gum. Fortunately, it can be easily prevented with basic care and regular veterinary checkups. ...
The reduction of blood circulating TCRγδ+ cells could be related to an increase of TCRγδ+ cells resident in the epithelium of inflamed gingival mucosa due to bacterial plaque. Persistence of subgingival bacterial plaque induces firstly chronic inflammation, followed by lesions of mucosa around ...
Conclusion: Myrrh oil when used as an adjunct with scaling and root planning significantly reduced the gingival inflammation in 48 hrs and gram-ve bacteria after 1 week.Lenka, BhagyashreeMohanty, RinkeeSatpathy, AnuragIndian Journal of Forensic Medicine & Toxicology...
The histological picture during the entire experiment was that of an initial gingival lesion. At day 0, no chronic inflammation of the gingiva characterized by a predominance of plasma cells was observed. After resumption of oral hygiene when the relative cell numbers at day 0 and day 8 were ...
