Obesity, Bone Loss, and Periodontitis: The Interlink

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Obesity and periodontitis are both common health concerns that have given rise to considerable economic and societal burden worldwide. There are established negative relationships between bone metabolism and obesity, obesity and diabetes mellitus (DM ...

Minocycline-loaded PLGA electrospun membrane prevents alveolar bone loss in experimental peridontitis

open access: yesDrug Delivery, 2020
Minocycline (MINO) is a tetracycline antibiotic effective against most of the bacteria microorganisms related to periodontal disease. Additionally, MINO promotes bone in vitro and in vivo.

Icariin prevents oestrogen deficiency–induced alveolar bone loss through promoting osteogenesis via STAT3

open access: yesCell Proliferation, 2020
Alveolar bone osteoporosis has attracted more and more attention because of its profound impact on stomatognathic function and treatment, but current treatments have not been targeted to alveolar bone and might even cause severe side effects.

Mechanical adaptation of trabecular bone morphology in the mammalian mandible [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Alveolar bone, together with the underlying trabecular bone, fulfils an important role in providing structural support against masticatory forces. Diseases such as osteoporosis or periodontitis cause alveolar bone resorption which weakens this structural

Salivary Biomarkers Associated with Alveolar Bone Loss [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2007
Abstract:  A longitudinal case–control study was performed to measure the association of salivary biomarkers with alveolar bone loss from a sub‐sample of 1,256 post‐menopausal women enrolled in the Buffalo Women's Health Initiative. From this cohort, 40 subjects with significant alveolar bone loss over a 5‐year period were compared to 40 age‐matched ...

NLRP3 regulates alveolar bone loss in ligature‐induced periodontitis by promoting osteoclastic differentiation

open access: yesCell Proliferation, 2020
NLRP3 inflammasome is a critical part of the innate immune system and plays an important role in a variety of inflammatory diseases. However, the effects of NLRP3 inflammasome on periodontitis have not been fully studied.

SLIT2 Overexpression in Periodontitis Intensifies Inflammation and Alveolar Bone Loss, Possibly via the Activation of MAPK Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
SLIT2, a member of neuronal guidance cues, has been reported to regulate inflammation and cancer progression. Periodontitis is an oral inflammatory disease that degenerates periodontal tissue, alveolar bone and tooth.

Effects of Chronic Ethanol Consumption and Ovariectomy on the Spontaneous Alveolar Bone Loss in Rats

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dentistry, 2020
Postmenopausal estrogen deficiency and ethanol (EtOH) abuse are known risk factors for different diseases including bone tissues. However, little is known about the synergic effects of EtOH abuse and estrogen deficiency on alveolar bone loss in women ...

Alveolar bone loss and tooth loss are associated with COVID-19 severity but are not independent risk factors. An explorative study

open access: yesAdvances in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2022
Purpose: This study explores the association between alveolar bone loss, tooth loss and severity of COVID-19. Materials and methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we included patients with confirmed COVID-19 who have had a dental panoramic ...
