Assessment of Salivary Levels of RANKL and OPG in Aggressive versus Chronic Periodontitis

Assessment of Salivary Levels of RANKL and OPG in Aggressive versus Chronic Periodontitis

RANKL (receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-β ligand) and OPG (osteoprotegerin) are two proteins involved in bone remodelling. During the active phase of periodontal disease, an imbalance between the ratios of the two elements can be noticed. While the expression of RANKL is elevated compared...
