Contributing Factors of Periodontitis explores the multifactorial nature of periodontal disease, highlighting the complex interplay of local, systemic, genetic, behavioural and environmental factors.The book discusses important factors including plaque and biofilm, calculus, local anatomical factors, diabetes, systemic conditions, genetics, medications, smoking, stress, nutrition, ageing and lifestyle. It also examines socioeconomic and cultural influences on periodontal health.By bringing these factors together, the book provides an integrated understanding of why periodontitis develops and progresses differently among individuals and highlights the importance of prevention and comprehensive periodontal care. An important feature of the book is emphasis on the interrelationship of contributing factors rather than considering them in isolation. Bringing together biological, systemic, genetic, behavioural, environmental and social perspectives, this book provides an integrated view of periodontitis and encourages a more individualised approach to periodontal care. Designed for dental students, postgraduate students, clinicians and researchers, this book offers a concise overview.
