Fast Facts: Perio Edition "Socransky Bacterial Cluster Classifications"

On this week's episode of Fast Facts - Perio Edition your host, Katrina Sanders, RDH takes us through the Socransky bacterial cluster classifications Quotes:  "Socransky evaluated the fact that these particular bacteria had various complexities when it came to the ways in which their pathogenicity is either established a stability of health or contributed to pathogenicity around disease." "...periodontal disease by itself is not simply a disease of bacteria presence, but rather a disease affiliated with disease producing bacteria and a dysbiosis or an imbalance between the health and disease producing bacteria."
