Characterizing traditionally defined periodontal disease in HIV+ adults
Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, 09/11/09
Vernon LT et al. – The level and extent of PD were high in this cohort even though most patients were being treated with HAART. The definition of periodontal disease used and cohort characteristics examined can influence the level of periodontal disease reported in studies of persons with HIV. Traditional periodontal pathogens are associated with PD in this cohort. Those with CD4+ T–cell counts <200 cells/mm3 are at greater risk for PD. Therefore, earlier HAART initiation may decrease exposure to immunosuppression and reduce PD morbidity.
