Abstract

Nutrigenomics is an emerging form of science involving tools that assess the benefit of diet and nutrition
in various disease conditions at molecular and genetic level. Nutrigenomics investigates the relationship of
nutrient regimen in maintaining health. This article reviews the role of nutrients in maintaining periodontal
health and the use of nutrigenomics in understanding genotype, phenotype diet interactions on periodontal
health of an individual and the effect of dietary modification on periodontal disease progression.
