Abstract

Periodontal disease is a multifactorial condition characterized by chronic inflammation and progressive destruction of supporting tissues, with significant implications for oral health and systemic well-being. This study investigated the correlation between inflammatory responses and regenerative outcomes in periodontal supporting tissues, emphasizing the role of epigenetic regulation. A mixed methods approach was employed, combining clinical assessments, patient-reported outcomes, and molecular analyses. Spearman correlation analysis revealed strong associations between clinical indicators of inflammation and perceived regenerative improvements, underscoring the interplay between destructive and reparative processes. Demographic and lifestyle factors, including smoking and systemic health conditions, were found to influence variability in responses. Regenerative therapies demonstrated favorable outcomes in terms of clinical attachment gain, alveolar bone support, and patient satisfaction. These findings highlight the importance of integrating epigenetic insights with clinical practice to develop personalized strategies for managing periodontal disease and enhancing tissue regeneration
