This paper presents a computer model of periodontal breakdown based on 1/f noise. The model is multifactorial and simulates the disease advancing with age in bursts and remissions, as seen in previous epidemiologic studies. Changing the weight of some parameters changed the simulated periodontal breakdown dramatically, disclosing antagonistic and synergistic effects between the causal factors.
