Studies in the past have investigated the relationship between blood type and dental caries. Limited efforts have been made to investigate the relationship between ABO blood group and periodontal disease. Knowledge of the ABO blood groups of patients and their association with the severity of periodontal disease maybe important in the development of early treatment strategies, and it would help to target non-responding areas to periodontal therapy of highly susceptible individuals. This review aims to discuss the association between ABO blood group and the severity of chronic periodontitis.

Abstract


Studies in the past have investigated the relationship between blood type and dental caries. Limited efforts have been made to investigate the relationship between ABO blood group and periodontal disease. Knowledge of the ABO blood groups of patients and their association with the severity of periodontal disease maybe important in the development of early treatment strategies, and it would help to target non-responding areas to periodontal therapy of highly susceptible individuals. This review aims to discuss the association between ABO blood group and the severity of chronic periodontitis.
