Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.Abstract Background Epithelium is the periodontal first line of defense against microbes. Discoidin domain receptor 1 (DDR1) is a collagen receptor expressed in epithelium. Ddr1 knockout (Ddr1−/−) mice develop periodontitis‐like defects, including junctional epithelium (JE) downgrowth, bacterial invasion, and alveolar bone loss.

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

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.Abstract Background Alveolar bone loss challenges tooth retention and implant placement. Freeze‐dried bone allograft (FDBA) is widely used for alveolar ridge preservation but has limitations in resorption rate and healing time. In this proof‐of‐concept study, we tested whether pro‐mineralization enzyme, tissue‐nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP ...

Mouse Vocal Fold Permeability In Vivo: Effects of Novel Low‐Tech Injury and Instillation Methods
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Improving experimental mouse vocal fold injury and instillation approaches is necessary to advance preclinical models of laryngeal disease. We have successfully repurposed low‐tech, quick, and reliable injury and instillation methods established in respiratory research. Using these methods, we show that murine vocal fold epithelium is inherently highly

Characterizing Secondary Velopharyngeal Surgery in Children With Cleft Palate at an Academic Center
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.In this retrospective study of children undergoing primary palatoplasty at a single academic institution, 10.8% required secondary surgery for velopharyngeal insufficiency. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that private insurance was associated with decreased odds of secondary surgery, while Asian race was associated with increased odds.
