Estimation of variation in serum and gingival crevicular fluid levels of mannose-binding lectin after periodontal therapy in chronic periodontitis patients
This cross-sectional study demonstrated statistically significant reductions in GCF MBL levels, along with a decrease in mean serum MBL levels, following SRP in patients with chronic periodontitis. Assessment of MBL levels can serve as a significant biomarker in the diagnosis of periodontal disease and its treatment outcome.
