Learning Objectives:
• Recognize the early warning signs of periodontal disease (Before BOP)
• Understand the key players in the mouth-body connection, and their role in causing periodontal and systemic diseases.
• Identify the microbial complexes as described by Socransky and his colleagues.
• Identify SRP resistant pathogens, and how they affect periodontal treatment

 

Treating the cause of periodontal disease (not the symptoms) can halt the disease process.
Earlier diagnosis, means earlier treatment, resulting in better and more predictable
treatment outcomes!
