No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to screen orthopedic surgery patients with and without a diagnosis of osteoarthritis for the presence of 11 pathogens associated with periodontal disease (PD) from a collection of oral rinse, synovial fluid and their synovium. The investigators hypothesize that there is a correlation between the presence of specific oral pathogens in saliva, synovial fluid and synovial tissue with clinical diagnosis of OA.
