PERIODONTITIS

The microbial plaque buildup in or near the gingival sulcus is what causes gingivitis. The species of Streptococcus, Fusobacterium, Actinomyces, Veillonella, and Treponema are the bacteria most firmly linked to the aetiology of gingivitis.

Periodontitis arises from the disruption of host-microbe homeostasis in susceptible individuals leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation that not only activates osteoclastogenesis and bone loss but also provides nutrients (tissue breakdown products) that enable the dysbiotic microbiota to grow and persist.
