Summary

This study aimed to investigate gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and serum ErbB4 and Nrg4 levels in periodontal health and disease. A total of 80 individuals, 20 patients with stage II grade B periodontitis, 20 patients with stage III grade B periodontitis, 20 with gingivitis and 20 periodontally healthy individuals were included. Whole-mouth and site-specific clinical periodontal parameters including probing depth, clinical attachment level, bleeding on probing, gingival index, plaque index and papillar bleeding index were recorded. GCF and serum ErbB4 and Nrg4 levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Statistical analysis was performed by using non-parametric tests.
