Analysis of the presence of pathogens which predict the risk of disease at peri-implant sites through polymerase chain reaction (PCR) Análise por reação em cadeia da polimerase (PCR) da presença de patógenos preditores de risco em sítios periimplantares

The presence of DNA of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Prevotella intermedia in the peri-implant sulcus samples of 19 partially edentulous patients was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and related to the depth of the peri-implant sulcus, bleeding on pro...
