A novel method of diagnosing periodontal disease is disclosed wherein telltale pyridine and alkyl-pyridine compounds which are detected in the oral cavity are indicative of periodontal disease. An alternate embodiment method is disclosed wherein increased concentrations of certain other compounds are detected to confirm the presence of periodontal disease.
