A Multifunctional β‐Defensin‐3 Mimetic Peptide Modulates Host–Biofilm Interactions and Reduces Bone Loss in Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
BDMP, a peptide that can penetrate cells and tissues, offering antimicrobial and anti‐inflammatory effects, has been identified as a potential new therapy for periodontitis. ABSTRACT Aim This study evaluated the potential of a beta‐defensin‐3 mimetic peptide (BDMP), a synthetic cell‐penetrating peptide with antimicrobial and immunomodulatory properties,

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.

Characterization and Removal of Multispecies Biofilms Formed by L. monocytogenes, S. aureus, and E. coli

Journal of Food Safety, Volume 46, Issue 4, August 2026.
The formation of mono‐, dual‐, and triple‐species biofilms by L. monocytogenes, S. aureus, and E. coli was characterized by cell growth, metabolic activity, staining, and microscopy. Their resistance to a commercial disinfectant (NaOCl) and natural agents such as vinegar and lactic acid was evaluated.
