ABSTRACT: Background
This study investigated the diagnostic potential of salivary triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM)-1, peptidoglycan recognition protein 1 (PGLYRP1) and interleukin (IL)-1β for periodontitis patients and their ability to predict treatment outcome.Methods
Systemically healthy, non-smokers with gingivitis (n = 31), stage III periodontitis (34 grade B: n = 34, grade C: n = 24) and healthy controls (n = 34) were recruited. Periodontitis patients (n = 42) underwent non-surgical periodontal treatment. Saliva was collected at baseline (T0) and post-treatment (T1, T3, T6). Biomarkers were measured using immunoassays. Periodontitis patients were categorised into responders (n = 19) and non-responders (n = 23) based on the number of residual pockets ≥ 5 mm w
