The prevalence and distribution of Haemophilus actinomycetemcomitans (H.a.) were studied in 3292 specimens of subgingival plaque on the four subgingival aspects of all teeth of the dental arch, 150 specimens from the mucosal surface (tongue and cheek) and 30 saliva specimens in 30 subjects. The sample population of 30 subjects was subdivided into three groups: 10 normal subjects, 10 subjects with localised juvenile periodontitis (SLJP) and 10 subjects with adult chronic periodontitis (SACP). The prevalences of H.a. in subgingival areas of each group mentioned were 30%, 90% and 60% respectively. Scores for prevalence obtained with other types of specimens proved to be lower except for saliva specimens which appear to be a less representative marker of subgingival prevalence of H.a.. Histograms for the distribution of H.a. revealed a predominance of this microorganism on the proximal surface of molar teeth in the three groups of patients. Only the SLJP also exhibited a high prevalence on the proximal aspect of the incisor teeth. The wide distribution of H.a. in all of the clinical groups studied suggests that this bacterium is not a good marker of periodontal disease and that it is necessary to define the most characteristic phenotypes and genotypes. |
