“…Our own clinical data (10) support the above statement.. We found no loss of attachment on the buccal or oral surfaces of the examined teeth. The prevalence of juvenile periodontitis is reported to vmy between 0.0% and 28.4% in different epidemiologic studies (8,12,16,17,21). Aekmiwledgmenis -We wish to thank Dr. Moss HANSEN,, chief.…”

– The prevalence of alveolar bone loss was investigated in 2813, 15‐ and 16‐year‐old Danish schoolchildren using bitewing radiographs. The interproximal spaces of the mesial and distal aspects of the first molar tech were examined. Inly defects with depths of more than 2 mm were considered periodontal bone loss. Radiographic evidence of bone resorption was found in 48 children. When evaluated clinically, 42 out of the 48 children with radiographic sings of bone loss demonstrated clinical loss of attachment. Only four children (0.1%) had the characteristic radiographic features of juvenile periodontitis. Loss of attachment of more than 2 mm was oberved in these children.

“…The lowest previous figures were .10% and .15%. 13 Although these figures indicate that periodontosis is a rare periodontal condition, they show periodontosis to be more prevalent than such medical disorders as true Addison's disease which is found in only .001% of the population. 13 Rao and Tewani 5 have reported that the prevalence of periodontosis is 6.83% of the total number of patients with advanced periodontal disorders.…”

“…Today, the term periodontosis is generally used to describe a disease, in otherwise healthy adolescents, characterised by rapid loss of alveolar bone, out of all proportion to the local environmental factors (Baer 1971). A familial incidence has been established (Benjamin & Baer 1967, Kaslick & Chasens 1968) indicating a genetic basis for the disease. Furthermore specific micro-organisms (Newman et al 1973, Irving et al 1976) and a selective cell-mediated immunodeficiency have been implicated in the aetiology of periodontosis.…”

The distribution of HLA‐A and ‐B antigens in patients and their families with periodontosis

To test the hypothesis of an association between periodontosis and the HLA-complex, 30 unrelated patients and 8 families were tissue typed for HLA-A and -B antigens. The patients were divided in two groups on an ethnic basis. Control groups consisted of unrelated individuals of the same ethnic origin. In the Negroid group I a statistically significant increase in the frequency of HLA-BW35 was found. However, this significance was not apparent when compared to a control group matched for geographical location as well as ethnic origin. No statistically significant differences were observed in the Caucasoid group II. The segregation patterns of HLA and periodontosis in the families were not conclusive. Establishing whether unaffected younger siblings of the patients will develop periodontosis in the future complicated the analysis. More family studies are needed to assess whether the distribution of HLA haplotypes in affected siblings is indeed random as suggested by our data or not.
