Abstract
Periodontal diseases are bacteria associated diseases. The host response to these bacteria is critical. Non specific defense mechanisms are mainly mediated by the polymorphonuclear neutrophil which out numbers the others crevicular leucocytes. This paper reviews the beneficial and possible detrimental aspect of the neutrophil functions.
