Genetics in Periodontics: A Review
Richa Verma, Vaishali Pagade, Shikha Tewari
Abstract: Periodontal diseases are complex diseases with multifactorial etiology. While microbial and other environmental factors initiate and modulate periodontal disease, individuals respond differently to common environmental challenges, This differential host response is influenced by the individual's genetic makeup. Susceptibility to periodontal disease and the severity of the disease results from the interactions of genetic mutations and polymorphisms. This review presents various genetic factors and methods used to delineate the various periodontal diseases and genetic associations. There is a need to design studies that examine the role of important environmental and genetic factors simultaneously.
