Difference between Oral microbiology and Periodontal disease

Oral microbiology vs. Periodontal disease

Oral microbiology is the study of the microorganisms (microbiota) of the oral cavity and their interactions between oral microorganisms or with the host. Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, is a set of inflammatory conditions affecting the tissues surrounding the teeth.

Similarities between Oral microbiology and Periodontal disease

Oral microbiology and Periodontal disease have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Bacteria, Calculus (dental), Dental plaque, Epithelium, Gingivitis, Periodontal disease, Tooth, Tooth decay.
