Brief Summary

Periodontitis is one of the most prevalent oral diseases in the world. Approximately 5–20% of adults worldwide suffer from severe periodontitis which may lead to tooth loss. Biomarkers found in saliva can be evaluated to check for disease activity. Visfatin is a pre-B cell colony enhancing factor, a newly discovered adipokine released from adipose tissue, macrophages, and leukocytes. Aspartate aminotransferase  (AST) is an enzyme that can be found in cells all over the body and there is a direct relation between AST level and quantity of tissue impairment. This biomarker will provides a safe, and non-invasive approach for periodontal disease detection, and possesses a high potential to revolutionize the next generation of diagnostics. Thus  , the aim of this study was to evaluate the role of visfatin and Aspartate aminotransferase as best reliable diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in oral diseases like periodontitis .
