Abstract:
The development of more predictable therapeutic modalities for the management of periodontitis has been preceded to a great extent by a better understanding of the underlying disease process. As the role of the immune mechanism has become more defined in the cascade of events associated with the progressing lesions, specific diagnostic tests are being developed to monitor the biochemical changes in the host. These tests, in addition to microbiological monitoring, together will help define therapeutic approaches, maintenance strategies, and endpoints in therapy.
