ABSTRACT:
A kit and method of predicting a refractory response in a subject diagnosed as having periodontal disease by measuring serum concentrations of actinomyces antibodies, streptococcal antibodies and lysine decarboxylase antibodies and using the measurement along with other subject information in a set of derived equations.
