DENT 6420      Periodontics I
It is the scope of this course to introduce the basic disease mechanisms involved in the evolution of the inflammatory periodontal lesion; i.e., the interaction of the host tissues with the oral microbial flora. The course will cover the entire range of possible periodontal diseases, ranging from simple marginal gingivitis to AIDS related necrotizing ulcerative periodontitis. Further, the course will continually reinforce the science of periodontology and its overwhelming relationship to the clinical practice of periodontics.
