Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are involved in periodontal tissue remodeling and degradation. MMP polymorphisms could alter transcription and function of these enzymes. The aim of this study was to investigate MMP-2, MMP-9 and MMP-12 gene polymorphisms in relation to susceptibility to severe chronic periodontitis (CP).
