WHO: "Virtually all countries must build up a monitoring system to control the spread of periodontitis and promote oral health." From: Strengthening the prevention of periodontal disease: The WHO approach

Prof. Dr. Thomas Hoffmann: "Periodontitis and peri-implantitis must […] become avoidable diseases. Early diagnostics and prophylaxis do play a decisive role here. In diagnostics, aMMP-8 could become a key technology in the process in the near future."

The WHO is focusing activities in the 21st century on oral health and the struggle against periodontitis. The weapon for this battle could be the aMMP-8 diagnostics.

Periodontitis significantly increases the risk for diabetes, cardio vascular illnesses, rheumatism and premature births. An early diagnosis can help to stop the process.

For laboratory physicians, clinics and universities: dentoElisa aMMP-8

The dentoElisa aMMP-8 is a quantitative ELISA kit with ready to use (RTU) reagents. An approved in-vitro diagnostic device (CE certified IVD], the ELISA is used to provide quantitative proof of neutrophil aMMP-8 in sulcus fluid (GCF) or peri-implant sulcus fluid (PISF). For the purposes of research, the dentoELISA aMMP-8 can be used also to detect active MMP-8 in serum and in other specimens.

The kit is composed of the monoclonal antibodies MoAB 8706 and 8708.

Sulcus fluid is taken using GCF/PISF collection strips. The collection strips are then simply placed in tubes and can be sent to the lab within seven days. After laboratory elution, the samples can be stably stored for more than 60 days at 4°C prior to ELISA analysis.

Prices and accessories are available upon request.

The PerioMarker®

rapid test reveals hidden inflammations. It can identify the risk even before any clinical signs become visible, such as irreversible destruction of periodontal tissue and jawbones or loosening of teeth.
