Apr 29, 2024 · The results showed that the increase in prevalence of E. gingivalis was correlated with an increase in the age of the patients. Study groups ranging from 25 to 45 years old and 45 to 60 years old revealed similar results. Two studies [27,28] reported a high prevalence of over 80% in the 45- to 60-year-old study group.
