Focusing on the chronic inflammatory nature of periodontitis, this book explores its origins in polymicrobial infections and the resulting tissue destruction. It highlights the critical role of cytokines and chemokines in regulating the inflammatory process, as well as the host's immune response to dental biofilm. The adaptive immune responses, both humoral and cellular, are emphasized for their significance in mediating reactions to oral microorganisms and their contribution to the disease's progression and tissue damage.
