Periodontitis is defined as "an inflammatory disease of the
supporting tissues of the teeth caused by specific microorganisms,
resulting in progressive destruction of the periodontal ligament
and alveolar bone with pocket formation, recession, or both."
Diagnostic Marker can be defined as any biochemical compound such
as antigen, antibody, abnormal enzyme, or hormone that is
sufficiently altered in a disease to serve as an aid in diagnosis
or in predicting susceptibility to the disease. Their findings
serve as a basis for treatment planning and provide essential data
during periodontal maintenance and disease-monitoring phases of
treatment. Thus, we can say that biomarkers, whether produced by
normal healthy individuals or by individuals affected by specific
systemic diseases, are tell-tale molecules that provides pertinent
information for differential diagnosis, localization of disease and
severity of infection. Therefore, in this particular literature
review, we aim to evaluate the potential diagnostic utility of
various biological markers present in oral fluids, such as saliva
and GCF and its potential application for the early diagnosis and
treatment of periodontal diseases.
