Document Language : Arabic 
Abstract : Periodontal diseases are essentially infectious in origin, their outcome depending on interaction between the pathogenic challenge and host response. It is now recognized that poor oral hygiene alone can not account for severe destruction of periodontal disease, where certain individuals are at relatively high risk of periodontal destruction and that at risk is partly under genetic control. This is the first study to evaluate the association between the ABO blood groups and severity of periodontal diseases. If an association found, it may be important in implementing preventive and treatment strategies for patients at risk. Data will be collected from 200 patients referred to the Division of Periodontology, Faculty of Dentistry, KAU. Medical history and dental history will be taken. Periodontal parameters will be recorded (periodontal pockets, clinical attachment loss, recession, furactions, bone loss, and mobility). Blood samples will be collected and analyzed (blood group, Glycated hemoglobin, complete blood count). Descriptive analysis will be carried out for cli8nical and blood parameters. Group comparisons will be performed using the chi-square test for frequency data. Continuous variables will be compared by analysis of variance (ANOVA).
