ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are methods for determining the severity and type of periodontal disease in mammals. The methods include the steps of (1) sampling crevicular fluid for a selected brief period of time, (2) assaying the crevicular fluid sample by colorimetric or other means to determine the total quantity of aspartate aminotransferase present, and (3) correlating the total quantity of asparatate aminotransferase present in the crevicular fluid sample with a standard for the selected sampling period which is indicative of the severity and type of periodontal disease.
