Presencia de aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans y porphyromonas gingivalis en periodontitis agresiva. Revisión bibliográfica

Abstract

Aggressive periodontitis is a multifactorial chronic inflammatory disease initiated by the biofilm of bacterial microorganisms that is characterized by severe chronic inflammation that leads to the progressive destruction of the dental support apparatus, tooth loss and, finally, masticatory dysfunction; these microorganisms contain virulence factors with a series of properties that allow bacteria to settle (colonize) in a tissue, generate a condition, and determine the degree or severity of the infection; in the case of BP, it is characterized by the presence of more or less high proportions of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa), Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), giving them a great prominence in this disease.
