Review Article
Background and Objective: Periodontal diseases are the most common chronic
inammatory diseases of humans and a major cause of tooth loss. Inammatory
periodontitis is also a complex multifactorial disease involving many cell types, cell
products and interactions. It is associated with a dysregulated inammatory
response, which fails to resolve, and which also fails to re-establish a benecial
periodontal microbiota. There is a rich history of biomarker research within the
eld of periodontology, but exemplary improvements in analytical platform
technologies oer exciting opportunities for discovery. These include the omic
technologies, such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics,
which provide information on global scales that can match the complexity of the
disease. This narrative review focuses on the recent advances made in in vivo
human periodontal research by use of omic technologies.
Material and Methods: The Medline database was searched to identify articles
