Site‐Specific Gingival Bleeding on Probing in a Steady‐State Plaque Environment: Influence of Polymorphisms in the Interleukin‐1 Gene Cluster

Background: We previously reported a high prevalence of a combination of alleles 2 at positions interleukin (IL)‐1A−889 and IL‐1B+3954 in an Arabic population with gingivitis. In a steady state, the proportion of sites with bleeding on probing (BOP) was consistently reduced. The aim of the present s...
