This review addresses the ability of a commercially available genetic susceptibility test to determine the risk of developing severe chronic periodontitis. The test is used to detect the simultaneous occurrence of allele 2 at the IL-1A+4845 and IL-1B+3954 loci. If both of these polymorphisms are present, patients are referred to as being genotype-positive and considered predisposed to becoming afflicted with severe chronic periodontitis. A basic premise of this test is the assumption that individuals who are genotype-positive produce increased amounts of IL-beta in response to microbial lipopolysaccharides, which allegedly predisposes them to an exaggerated inflammatory response and an increased incidence of chronic periodontitis.
