چکیده
endorsements 277 Epidemiologic studies indicate that gingivitis of varying severity is nearly universal in children and adolescents. These studies also indicate that the prevalence of destructive forms of periodontal disease is lower in young individuals than in adults. Epidemiologic surveys in young individuals have been performed in many parts of the world and among individuals with a widely varied background. For the most part, these surveys indicated that loss of periodontal attachment and supporting bone is relatively uncommon in the young but that the incidence increases in adolescents aged 12 to 17 when compared to children aged 5 to 11. In general, in the United States, epidemiologic studies indicate that the prevalence of severe attachment loss on multiple teeth among children and young adults is approximately 0.2% to 0.5%. Despite this low prevalence, children and adolescents should receive periodic periodontal evaluation as a component of routine dental visits. On October 30-November 2, 1999, the American Academy of Periodontology assembled an International Workshop for a Classification of Periodontal Diseases and Conditions, which resulted in a new classification. Periodontal diseases discussed here will reflect the new classification system. Clinically distinct periodontal infections that can affect young individuals include: 1) dental plaque-induced gingival diseases; 2) chronic periodontitis; 3) aggressive periodontitis; 4) periodontitis as a manifestation of systemic diseases; and 5) necrotizing periodontal diseases.

متن کاملThe Effect of German Chamomile Mouthwash on Dental Plaque and Gingival Inflammation
Dental plaque is a well known etiologic factor for gingivitis. Recently, herbal extracts are a matter of scientific interest to inhibit plaque accumulation on teeth. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of German Chamomile (GC) mouth wash on plaque and gingival indices. Twenty five gingivitis patients (15 female and 10 male, mean age 27±7.76 years) participated in this contr...
متن کاملEtiology of Gingivitis
Gingival lesions not induced by plaque are common and can help explain the many different periodontal tissue reactions observed. Gingival inflammation sometimes differs from that of routine plaque-associated gingival diseases and often presents distinctive clinical features. (Holmstrup, 1999a). The causes of non-plaque-induced gingival diseases include bacterial, viral, and fungal infections, g...

The homeostasis of the periodontium involves complex multifactorial relationships, in which the endocrine system plays an important role [1]. Hormones are specific regulatory molecules that modulate function reproduction, growth and development and the maintenance of internal environments as well as energy production, utilization and storage [1]. As well as being the regulators of reproductive ...
