Microbiological Diagnosis of Periodontal Diseases. A Further Aid through Microbiological Tests

      Аннотация: This book presents a summary of current knowledge on the microbiological diagnosis of periodontitis. It focuses on the theoretical foundations and is supplemented with new knowledge. It subsequently describes specifically the laboratory diagnosis methods of periodontitis: oral microbiology culture methods, advanced and molecular diagnostic methods used in diagnosis of periodontal diseases. Periodontitis is a serious disease worldwide and its confirmed association with systemic diseases means its severity is increasing. Its laboratory diagnosis has the potential to rise to the level of clinical and diagnostic imaging. The transfer of diagnostic methods from laboratory to clinical use is increasingly used in the prevention and monitoring of the exacerbation and treatment of periodontal disease, as well as of its impact on systemic disease.
