Osmotic pressure of gingiva in periodontitis: Correlation with gingival proinflammatory cytokine production and alveolar bone destruction

Osmotic pressure of gingiva in periodontitis: Correlation with gingival proinflammatory cytokine production and alveolar bone destruction

Background/purpose: This study investigated the relationship between gingival osmotic pressure (GOP) and periodontal disease by correlating GOP with alveolar bone loss (ABL) and gingival proinflammatory cytokine production during periodontitis. Materials and Methods: Experimental periodontitis was i...
