  1. Periodontal Disease:

    • Tannerella forsythia is one of the bacterial species commonly associated with periodontal disease, particularly chronic periodontitis. Periodontal diseases involve inflammation and infection of the gums, leading to the destruction of the supporting structures of the teeth.
  2. Biofilm Formation:

    • Tannerella forsythia, along with other bacteria, contributes to the formation of dental plaque and biofilms on tooth surfaces. These biofilms play a role in the initiation and progression of periodontal disease.
  3. Tissue Destruction:

    • In periodontitis, the immune response to the bacterial infection can lead to inflammation. Persistent inflammation may result in the destruction of the gingival tissues, connective tissue, and bone that support the teeth.
  4. Association with Other Pathogens:

    • Periodontal diseases often involve a complex microbial community. Tannerella forsythia is frequently found in conjunction with other periodontal pathogens, such as Porphyromonas gingivalis and Treponema denticola.
  5. Virulence Factors:

    • Tannerella forsythia possesses various virulence factors that contribute to its ability to evade the host immune response and promote the establishment of infections in periodontal tissues.
  6. Systemic Health Implications:

    • There is ongoing research exploring potential links between periodontal disease and systemic health conditions, such as cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. However, the exact nature of these associations is still an area of scientific investigation.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
