Opis

Microbiology of Periodontal Disease offers a concise exploration of the microorganisms responsible for periodontal infections and their interaction with the host. The book explains how the normal oral microbiome shifts into a disease-causing community through dysbiosis, leading to inflammation and tissue destruction. It highlights major periodontal pathogens such as Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, and Treponema denticola, describing their virulence mechanisms and ability to evade host defenses.
