Patients from diverse age groups will be analyzed to determine the prevalence of periodontitis in those below 25 years of age (early onset periodontitis) and to evaluate the variation in the genetic and microbial profile of such patients and those above 25 years.
All physically and mentally challenged individuals will be excluded.
