Objective: Gingivitis and periodontitis are the most common types of periodontal diseases, which are chronic inflammatory conditions encompassing many other conditions. These arise because of the interaction between a pathogenic bacterial biofilm and inflammatory chemicals and cells produced from the host.
Materials and Methods: A sample of 50 individuals (18 males and 32 females) aged 19-30 years old, treated at the health center of Efraz, Samarra city, was recruited. Plaque index was measured to determine dental plaque thickness. A calculus index was measured as well. Salivary uric acid and salivary total protein content were assessed chemically using unstimulated saliva. The statistical package for social science (SPSS) version 21 was used to examine all data.
Results and Conclusion: No associations were found between periodontal diseases and uric acid and salivary total protein content.
