ABSTRACT
The periodontal disease affects a great part of the world’s population. This disease is a result of the interaction of the host with the microorganisms in the biofilm; therefore the type of immunological reaction will determine the grade of the disease. The Th1/Th2 balance, was determined by immunohistochemistry (using interferon gamma and interleukin-13) in histological sections of biopsies of the gum of patients previously diagnosed clinical and histologically. The result was a prevalence of Th1 in health and a balance Th1/Th2 in gingivitis with a trend toward Th2 in periodontitis
