Brief Summary:
The aim of this study was to investigate salivary and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) levels of MMP-8, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 during 2/3 trimester of pregnancy and after delivery

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Pregnancy Other: Saliva collection Other: GCF collection

Detailed Description:
MMP-8 and MMP-9 have been reported to reflect the inflammatory status in periodontal tissues and, therefore represent as potential biomarkers of periodontitis. The balance between tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) and MMPs play an important role in maintaining the integrity of healthy periodontium.
