Abstract

Background Comparing the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) levels of galectin-3, peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in individuals with stage III grade C periodontitis and gingivitis and with healthy periodontium was the purpose of this clinical research.
