Fifty percent of people aged over 40 years suffer from periodontitis. Despite those numbers that mark periodontitis as one of the most common infectious diseases it is widely neglected.
Microbial testing is well established for subgingival plaque samples. However, many dentists refrain from this method, mainly because patient samples must be sent to a specialised laboratory causing additional logistic effort and costs for the dentist.
Quoting the Consensus paper (2010): Professional guidelines for microbial diagnostics of periodontitis in the dental office.
»The weaknesses of the currently available methods lie in the costs for the patients and in the time delay for commencing the therapy while waiting for the laboratory results.1.«
