The aim of the present cross-sectional investigation was to evaluate percentage of bone loss in patients who had been one year under periodontal maintenance at the Department of Periodontology, Faculty of Dentistry, University of São Paulo by radiographic analysis. Complete sets of periapical radiographs provided data regarding percentage of alveolar bone loss, which was correlated with arches, tooth group and proximal sites. The sample consisted of 27 men and 53 women ranging in age from 16 to 85 years (mean: 48.

Article Synopsis
- * Subgingival plaque samples were collected and cultured, revealing Aa in 40.3% of healthy subjects, 68% of chronic periodontitis patients, 92.86% of aggressive periodontitis patients, and 40.14% of children with gingivitis.
- * The findings indicate a higher detection rate of Aa than previously noted, suggesting its significant role as a native component of the periodontium microbiota and its association
The zone between plaque and attached periodontal tissues on chronic periodontitis-affected teeth was examined by a combined macroscopic and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) approach. Examined were 27 teeth with chronic periodontitis (chronic periodontitis-affected group) and three healthy teeth with no evidence of periodontal disease (control group). Both groups were collected immediately after extraction, fixed in 2% glutaraldehyde, and post-fixed in 1% osmium tetroxide.
