Is periodontal disease still being treated as an infection when leading
authorities have redefined periodontitis as an inflammatory disease?
The American Academy of Periodontology (AAP) redefined periodontal
disease from an infectious disease to an inflammatory disease and
have recently published a “call to action” for the professional community.
The session will help make sure the attendees’ practices are compliant
with the newly published JADA guidelines for evidence-based clinical
recommendations in the non-surgical treatment of chronic periodontitis.
Inflammation being referred to as the “silent killer” is one of the hottest
topics of research. Current research points to an association between
oral health and some of today’s most prevalent and deadly diseases
namely cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, respiratory
illness and autoimmune disorders.
