Background: Chronic periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of bacterial etiology that results in the destruction of tooth supporting tissues, tooth mobility, and tooth loss. The inflammatory response of the periodontal tissues to infection is influenced by environmental and genetic factors. The polymorphism of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) has been reported to influence the expression of TNF-α, thereby playing a role in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. Objective: To study the genotyping of tumor necrosis factor-α at position (-308) and to find out whether any associations exist between the severity of periodontitis and the gene polymorphisms. Patients and Methods: The study groups included 50 patients with chronic periodonti...
