Fast Facts: Perio Edition “Periodontitis as a Manifestation of Systemic Disease - Familial & Cyclic Neutropenia”
On this week’s episode of Fast Facts - Perio Edition, Katrina Sanders, we are continuing the conversation that we started last week in discussing periodontitis as a manifestation of systemic disease highlighting familial and cyclic neutropenia!
Quotes:
“These are individuals who experienced episodes of abnormally low white blood cells.”
“It's important for us to understand that when patients present to our chairs, there is a possibility that these individuals may not know that they have this disease process.”
