Do you really know what Periodontal Disease is? by Jose Ricardo Kina in MADOHC in Lupine Publishers |
The
etiology includes the sum of evidences related to the causes of a
disease. Majority of all forms of periodontal diseases, are considered
as microorganisms-induced dependent. However, it is improbable that
bacteria alone cause periodontal disease. The etiological concept of the
inflammatory periodontal disease is an exceedingly complex interaction
of bacteria and predisposing risk factors. The predisposing risk factor
may be an inherent characteristic associated with an increased rate of a
subsequently occurring disease, but does not necessarily cause the
disease. In periodontal disease, the predisposing risk factors may be
defined as local environmental factors, behavioral factors in nature and
systemic factors, which may be responsible in providing an ideal
environment for bacterial colonization and/or fragility in a determinate
tooth or teeth and adjacent periodontal tissues and/ or interference in
the inflammatory process. Local environmental factor may interfere in
the fragile equilibrium of the gingival sulcus defense by favoring
microbial colonization and growth or/and altering the local
susceptibility of the periodontal tissues to be damaged by the bacterial
onslaught.
