Bone biology in aging periodontal and peri‐implant tissues
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Background Periodontal disease is an age‐related chronic inflammatory condition leading to tooth loss. Dental implants are an option for replacement of lost teeth in older adults. However, age‐related changes to alveolar bone may have pathological implications for its role in supporting the dentition and dental implants.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Long‐term space travel (e.g. travel to Mars) will greatly exceed the recommended lifetime radiation dose of 600 millisieverts (mSv) and have a detrimental effect on skeletal fragility. Our objective was to determine if 1 Gray (GY) radiation impacts the biomechanical properties of the tibia and femur from rats under microgravity.
