BACKGROUND Previous studies have suggested that acute necrotising gingivitis precedes noma disease and that noma clusters in some villages in certain regions of low- and middle-income countries. We sought to assess the prevalence of gingivitis with bleeding in young children from villages with or without a history of noma and to analyse epidemiological differences related to sociodemographic ch...

Gingivitis and periodontitis are immunoinflammatory periodontal diseases characterized by chronic localized infections usually associated with insidious inflammation This narrative review discusses periodontal diseases and mechanisms influencing the immune response and autoimmunity in pediatric rheumatic diseases (PRD), particularly juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), childhood-onset systemic ...

OBJECTIVES The present study evaluated the gingival condition among school going children in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates and determined its relationship with tooth brushing frequency, diet and dental caries. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four hundred and five children participated in the study. There were 232 boys (57%) and 173 (43%) girls. Children were grouped based on age as ≤6 years (n = 84) me...

Periodontal disease is a chronic and irreversible disease that affects the supporting tissue of the teeth (gums, alveolar bone, cementum and periodontal ligament). The disease is often divided into two conditions: gingivitis and periodontitis. Gingivitis is inflammation of the gingiva, while periodontitis is inflammation of non-gingival tissue: periodontal ligament and alveolar bone (Harvey CE,...

An in vitro model of supragingival plaque associated with gingivitis was characterized by traditional culture techniques, comparative 16S rRNA gene sequencing of isolates, and quantitative PCR (QPCR). Actinomyces naeslundii, Prevotella spp., and Porphyromonas gingivalis increased under conditions emulating gingivitis. Gram-negative species and total bacteria were dramatically underestimated by ...

Gingivitis is an inflammatory disease in gingiva without any loss of attachment caused by plaque. reversible, if not treated it can develop into periodontitis. Gingivitis-causing bacteria include Phorpyromonas gingivalis, acting as secondary plaque formation at the colonization stage attaching themselves to monolayers that have been formed primary bacteria. Herbal use Indonesia still a trend un...

In children periodontal disease presents itself as symptoms of systemic disease, but very seldom does it develop, as in adults, into cases that accompany serious damage to the alveolar bone. Most common are the cases of localized filth and eruptive gingivitis. The majority of these cases of gingivitis are localized in the interdental papilla and marginal gingiva and very few of them affect the ...
