The aim of this study is; detection of leucine rich α-2 glycoprotein1 (LRG1), c-reactive protein (CRP) levels in saliva samples of periodontally healthy, gingivitis and periodontitis patients and the possible correlation between these values and clinical parameters of periodontal diseases. Materials and methods: Samples of saliva were obtained from 60 systemically healthy non-smoker individuals with periodontitis (P, n=20), gingivitis(G, n=20) and healthy periodontium (S, n=20). Full-mouth clinical periodontal measurements including probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), bleeding on probing (BOP), gingival index (GI) and plaque index (PI) were also recorded. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine LRG and CRP levels in the biological samples.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Systemically healthy (The determination of healthy volunteers will be based on the statements of the patients in the anamnesis. No additional examinations will be made.)
• At least twenty permanent teeth in the mouth
• Non-smoker
• No medication for continuous use
• Those who have not used antibiotics, anti-inflammatory and systemic corticosteroid drugs in the last 6 months.
• Not in pregnancy or lactation period.
• For the periodontitis group that has not received periodontal treatment in the last 6 months
• For the periodontitis group; According to the evaluation made in 6 regions of each tooth, individuals with 30% or more bleeding on probing area, at least 2 teeth not adjacent to each quarter jaw with a depth of 5 mm or more and 4 mm or more attachment loss, coronal 1/3 and more on radiography (horizontal and / or vertical) bone loss
• For the gingivitis group; According to the evaluation made in 6 regions of each tooth, individuals with 10% or more bleeding on probing area, having a probing depth of less than 4mm and no attachment loss
• For healthy group; According to the evaluation made in 6 regions of each tooth,individuals with less than 10% bleeding on probing area, having a probing depth less than 4mm and no loss of attachment were included in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Any oral or systemic disease
• Regularly using a systemic medication
• During pregnancy or lactation
• Received periodontal treatment within the last 6 months.
• Those who received antibiotic, anti-inflammatory or systemic corticosteroid medication in the last 6 months
• Smokers are not included in the study
