Brief summary

The aim of this study to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of a new qualitative aMMP-8 POC test in different periodontal health and disease and as compared to the established quantitative laboratory method (ELISA)

Detailed description

MMP-8 has been reported to reflect the inflammatory status in periodontal tissues and, therefore represent as potential biomarkers of periodontitis. A positive aMMP-8 test could be an early indicator of these excessive and undesired tissue reactions.
