You told us in a channeling that in about 80% of periodontal disease cases, the chronic gingivitis is actually caused by a virus, and a search of the literature turned up some scientific support of viral involvement in that disorder. A paper by M. Kazi, et al. (J. Clin. Diag. Res., 2015 Jul, Vol-9(7): DC05-DC08) describes that among 75 patients with periodontitis, 81.33% as a group had detectable HSV-1, HSV-2, Epstein-Barr virus, or cytomegalovirus. Although scientifically, this is only showing an association of virus presence, is this actually reflecting true causation of the illness for those patients?
