ABSTRACT:
The inventor discovered that γ-GTP (γ-glutamyl transpeptidase) was scarcely contained in the gingival crevicular fluid of patients with gingivitis, but was contained in the gingival crevicular fluid of patients with periodontitis. Thus, the inventor provides a determination method of development of periodontitis by detecting or measuring γ-GTP contained in the gingival crevicular fluid. Also, this method can be applied to the determination of the development of peri-implant inflammation.
