The level of sex hormones vary in different periods of life, most clearly in puberty, pregnancy and menopause. Some studies show that changes in hormone levels can affect the periodontium, in particular, in the presence of existing ones, the plaque-induced inflammation of the gums.
1. Puberty, pregnancy, menopause
A. Definitions
1. Osteoporosis-reduction of bone mass, leading to an increased risk of fractures. Osteoporosis occurs most often in postmenopausal women in a sitting or lying ill animals, and also patients receiving long-term steroid therapy.
1. Characteristics Of AIDS.
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is
infectious disease caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). People with acquired immune deficiency syndrome are at increased risk of developing certain cancers and infections that usually occur only in people with a weakened immune system.
A. Characteristics
1. Leukemia is cancer that begins in cells of the blood. People with leukemia, the bone marrow produces a large number of abnormal white blood cells that do not function properly. First, leukemia cells function almost normally.
At the moment, they could displace normal white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. This makes it difficult for blood to do its work.
1. The pace of development of periodontal disease in patients with poorly controlled diabetes are two to three times higher than in patients without diabetes mellitus patients (Fig. 10-2).
2. The answer is well-controlled diabetics for non-surgical periodontal treatment, including periodontal diseases of the teeth, apparently similar to diabetes violence.
And the incidence of periodontitis
1. In patients with well-controlled diabetes are more periodontal than people without diabetes.
a. Diabetes is well controlled if the level of glucose in the blood is stabilized within the recommended range.
1. Introduction diabetes mellitus. Diabetes is a disease in which the body does not produce or properly use insulin. Insulin is a hormone that is needed to convert sugar, starches and other food into energy the body uses to sustain life.
A. types of diabetes
1. Diabetes type I diabetes (previously called insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
diabetes or juvenile diabetes)
When pathogenic bacteria successfully infect periodontal, the body reacts mobilization of protective immune cells and releasing a number of biochemical mediators to combat them. Immune cells release of biologically active compounds called biochemical mediators, which activate the body's inflammatory response. Biochemical mediators "intermediaries" sent to the site for cell activation of the inflammatory response. Inflammatory mediators importance of periodontitis are cytokines, prostaglandins, and matrix metalloproteinases (table. 9-1).
Periodontal disease is a bacterial infection that causes an
inflammatory response in the periodontal tissues [1]. For the progression of
gingivitis periodontitis, pathogenic bacteria must be present. For many years it was assumed that pathogenic bacteria were the only cause
tissue destruction seen periodontal diseases. The research results show that, although the bacteria needed for the disease to occur, the presence of
periodontal pathogens are not enough to cause tissue destruction seen in periodontitis. Rather, it is the body's response to periodontal pathogens and is the reason for the almost complete
destruction saw periodontal disease [2-6].
A. Description
1. Chronic inflammation is long lived outside the control of the inflammatory response that lasts more than a few weeks.
a. This pathological condition characterized by active inflammation, tissue destruction, and attempts to repair.
B. Warning signs of acute inflammation missing in chronic inflammation, such as periodontitis-and the problem may go unnoticed host (the patient). Clinically, the pain is often missing.
