Summary
| Description |
English: The ecological plaque hypothesis and the aetiology of periodontal diseases. The diagram depicts the dynamic relationship whereby the inflammatory response results in an environmental change, subgingivally, which produces a shift in the balance of the resident microflora. Such a shift predisposes a site to disease. Disease could be prevented not only by inhibiting the pathogens directly but also by interfering with the factors driving the transition. Adapted from Marsh,P.D.(1994).Microbial ecology of dental plaque and its significance in health and disease. Adv.Dent.Res. 8, 263–271. |
