The Role of Oxidative Stress in Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Oxidative stress is involved in multiple chemical reactions that take place in different intracellular organelles: mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticulum, peroxisomes, autophagy, and aging, and can be influenced by exogenous factors: nutrition, physical activity, psychological status, environmental conditions, microbiome, and drugs.

Limosilactobacillus reuteri‐Fusobacterium nucleatum Interactions Modulate Biofilm Composition and Immunogenicity

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The coaggregation between L. reuteri and F. nucleatum modulates its immunogenicity and affects the latter's ability to coaggregate with late colonizers, altering the biofilm composition. ABSTRACT Aim The interactions between Limosilactobacillus reuteri and oral bacteria are poorly understood.

Herpesvirus Simplex Virus‐1 Exploits Inflammation to Infect Periodontal Stem Cells and Disrupt Lineage Commitment

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
HSV‐1 infects oral mesenchymal stem cells both in vitro and in vivo to dysregulate their lineage commitment. An inflamed gingival environment increases susceptibility to HSV‐1 infection, which further elevates proinflammatory cytokine levels and exacerbates alveolar bone loss.

Epidemiology of Molar Furcation Defects: A Multi‐Center Study on Prevalence, Severity, and Risk Indicators

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
In a large cohort of periodontitis patients, molar furcation involvement was highly prevalent but mostly of lower severity. Tooth‐specific factors are primary drivers of risk, with maxillary molars and second molars having significantly higher odds of being affected.

Advancing Biofilm Removal: Evaluating Electrolytic Methods for Decontaminating Dental Implants In Vitro

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Multispecies oral biofilms were established on titanium implants using a controlled bioreactor model and subjected to different decontamination strategies. Biofilm persistence was evaluated by v‐qPCR, SEM, and CLSM to assess treatment efficacy.

Multiomics Comparison of Proline‐Rich Peptide‐Enhanced Hyaluronic Acid Gels Versus Conventional Regenerative Materials: An Early Wound‐Healing Model

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
A proline‐rich peptide (P6) embedded in crosslinked hyaluronic acid replicates EMD's early anti‐inflammatory and proremodelling signature in a porcine gingival model, highlighting a fully synthetic, ethically sound candidate for periodontal regeneration.
