Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in Candida spp. biofilms: In vitro and in vivo protocols

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
This review addresses the critical challenges in translating in vitro antimicrobial photodynamic therapy protocols to in vivo models, with a particular focus on the hurdles of standardization. The vast diversity in photosensitizers and light parameters across different target cells and models requires a rigorous optimization process.

The oral microbiota and periodontal health in orthodontic patients

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The oral microbiota develops within the first 2 years of childhood and becomes distinct from the parents by 4 years‐of‐age. The oral microbiota plays an important role in the overall health/symbiosis of the individual. Deviations from the state of symbiosis leads to dysbiosis and an increased risk of pathogenicity.

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Differential Expression of Human and Bacterial Proteins Reveals Microbiome–Host Crosstalk in Metabolic Disorders

PROTEOMICS – Clinical Applications, Volume 20, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose The growing prevalence of obesity, MetS, and T2DM highlights the need to better understand host–microbiota interactions. While gut microbiota has been widely investigated, interactions between the oral microbiota and human salivary proteins remain largely unexplored.
