Background and Objective: The field of salivary diagnostics lacks an accepted and validated biomarker of alveolar bone remodeling. To address this, we examined levels of salivary biomolecules specifically associated with biological aspects of bone remodeling in subjects with chronic periodontitis in a case–control study.
Material and Methods: Levels of macrophage inflammatory protein‐1α (MIP‐1α), osteoprotegerin, C‐telopeptide pyridinoline cross‐links of type I collagen and β‐C‐terminal type I collagen telopeptide in unstimulated whole saliva of 80 subjects (40 subjects with moderate to severe chronic periodontitis and 40 sex‐ and age‐matched healthy control subjects) were measured using enzyme immunosorbent assays. Saliva was collected before clinical examination, which included probing depth, clinical attachment loss and bleeding on probing.
Results: The mean level of MIP‐1α in subjects with periodontitis was 18‐fold higher than in healthy subjects (p |
