Development of simple predictive models of tooth loss in the community setting

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background A simple tool for predicting the risk of tooth loss is considered valuable for the implementation of early preventive measures in community settings. This study aimed to establish a simple predictive model for tooth loss in a community‐dwelling Japanese population.

Prevalence and local factors associated with radiographic bone loss in primary dentition: A retrospective study

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study aimed to evaluate the radiographic bone level in primary molars in a Brazilian population, define the prevalence of bone loss, and identify the local factors associated with early bone alterations. Methods Radiographs of children who attended Piracicaba Dental School (Brazil) between 2014 and 2020 were evaluated.

Association between serum α‐Klotho levels and severity of periodontitis in a representative U.S. population

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory disease, is linked to systemic conditions such as cardiovascular and kidney disease. Serum α‐Klotho, an anti‐aging protein with anti‐inflammatory properties, has been associated with systemic diseases, but its role in periodontitis is unclear.

Immunomodulators, associated or not with systemic antibiotics, to treat periodontitis: A 1‐year multicenter, placebo‐controlled, double‐blind, randomized clinical trial

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Immunomodulatory agents such as omega‐3 (ω‐3) and low‐dose aspirin (ASA) have been proposed as effective adjuncts in the treatment of periodontitis. However, they still lack long‐term studies and head‐to‐head evaluation with metronidazole (MTZ) and amoxicillin (AMX), the adjunct protocol with the strongest scientific evidence of ...

Association between caries prevalence and clinical, microbiological and dietary variables in 1.0 to 0.5-year-old Brazilian children

open access: yes, 2015
The association between caries prevalence and clinical (presence of visible plaque in the labial surfaces of maxillary incisors), microbiological (salivary levels of mutans streptococci) and dietary variables was evaluated in 142 1.0- to 2.5-year-old ...
