The association of periodontal inflammation and inflammatory markers with cognitive dysfunction: A case–control study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the association of inflammatory markers in saliva, plasma, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) with cognitive decline and periodontitis. Methods Patients with Alzheimer disease (AD, n = 52), mild cognitive impairment (MCI, n = 51), subjective cognitive decline (SCD, n = 51), and controls (n = 76) between 50 and 80 ...

TAM pathway proteins as novel salivary biomarkers for periodontitis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The identification of molecular biomarkers that help clinicians in early diagnosis is a key focus of periodontal research. The major aim of this cross‐sectional observational study was to assess whether salivary TAM pathway protein levels have the potential to discriminate between periodontally healthy or gingivitis controls and ...

Relationships between periodontitis, tooth loss, and metabolic syndrome indicators

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigates how poor oral health impacts metabolic alterations, specifically evaluating the effects of periodontitis and tooth loss, either individually or in combination, on the number of metabolic syndrome (MetS) indicators.

Comparative efficacy of novel bioactive glass versus sodium fluoride toothpaste for dentin hypersensitivity

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This first‐in‐human clinical study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a bioglass incorporated in a toothpaste, in reducing dentin hypersensitivity (DH) compared to a sodium fluoride (NaF) toothpaste over a 2‐week period. Methods A double‐blind, randomized, parallel‐arm, proof‐of‐concept clinical trial was conducted with 46

The influence of flap design on the relevance of biomaterials in regenerative periodontal surgery

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The aim of this systematic review was to explore whether the benefits of biomaterials in periodontal regenerative/reconstructive surgery are affected by the type of flap employed. The study addresses the existing gap in the evidence to substantiate the beneficial effect of minimal invasive periodontal surgical approach compared to a

Shortened outreach periodontal therapy in nursing home residents with periodontitis: A randomized controlled trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background We examined the clinical effectiveness of shortened outreach periodontal therapy for 3 months in nursing home residents with periodontitis versus controls (no therapy). Methods Nursing home residents with periodontitis were randomly assigned to either (a) one‐time, shortened outreach periodontal therapy adapted to German statutory ...

Dextran sodium sulfate confounds causal role of periodontitis in inflammatory bowel disease

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Emerging evidence supports a bidirectional link between periodontitis and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). To investigate this relationship, experimental models commonly use dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) to induce colitis. However, DSS is presumed to selectively affect the colon, and its potential off‐target effects on the oral ...

Change in tooth mobility following non‐surgical periodontal therapy: A retrospective cohort study of clinical outcomes

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To evaluate the change in clinical tooth mobility following scaling and root planing (SRP) and to identify baseline factors predictive of the 12‐month outcome. Methods This retrospective cohort study utilized de‐identified electronic health records from the BigMouth Dental Data Repository. The final cohort consisted of 152 patients,
