Core Tip

Core tip: Several adipokines could serves as the monitoring molecules that reflect overall and oral disease conditions include periodontitis. Because they are rapidly change upon the change in body and oral conditions. The treatment response and disease activity progression may also predicted using these kinds of molecules. Moreover, the method to collect and analyse adipokines is relatively simple because they can be detected in gingival crevicular fluid and analysed using general enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technology. Collectively, clinicians include medical doctors and periodontists should take the concern regarding adipokines into their routine periodontal treatment plan and management.
