Summary

The application of point-of-care test with oral fluid-based biomarkers assisting in early-detection of gum disease is highly needed. Recently, a commercially available active Matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) point-of-care test (POCT) for detecting the risk of gum disease has been developed. Currently, there is a paucity of research to assess the performance of aMMP-8 POCT using different oral fluid sampling methods. This study will evaluate the accuracy of aMMP-8 POCT for discriminating periodontal health from disease in saliva and oral rinse.The information obtained from this study may help us understand better which sample is superior for the early detection of gum disease.
