| Abstract |
Periodontal diseases are caused by bacterial infection and are important oral diseases in the dental field. They are known to be caused by the causative bacteria in, for example, endocarditis and diabetes. The main bacterial species that cause periodontal diseases are Porphyromonas gingivalis, P. intermedia, T. forsythia, Treponema denticola, and Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, among others.
In this paper, we will outline the isolation rate of periodontal disease-causing bacteria and the distribution of the fimA genotype of P. gingivalis among approximately 120 specimens treated in our implant department between November 2017 and April 2018. |
