Establishment of an MRI‐Based Diagnostic Approach to Identify Critical Pulpal Inflammation Zones in a Rat Caries‐Derived Pulpitis Model

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To establish a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐based diagnostic approach for identifying ‘critical pulpal inflammation’ zones in a rat model of caries‐derived pulpitis. Methodology Caries‐derived pulpitis was induced in the molars of Sprague–Dawley rats using the caries‐derived pulpitis model.

Periodontal microbiology and microbial etiology of periodontal diseases: Historical concepts and contemporary perspectives

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This narrative review summarizes the collective knowledge on periodontal microbiology, through a historical timeline that highlights the European contribution in the global field. The etiological concepts on periodontal disease culminate to the ecological plaque hypothesis and its dysbiosis‐centered interpretation.

The Role of Neuropeptide Y in Dental Pulp: Balancing Neurogenic Inflammation and Pain Modulation

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dental pulp is a densely innervated, low‐compliance tissue in which neurogenic inflammation can rapidly escalate into oedema, raised intrapulpal pressure, microvascular compromise, and pain. While Substance P (SP) and Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) are well‐established drivers of pulp vasodilation, the Neuroopeptide Y (NPY ...

Clinical periodontal diagnosis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

Investigation into the formation and susceptibility of Candida albicans biofilms and denture plaque in vitro.

, 2005
Microbial biofilms are wide-spread in nature and the organisms within them are often able to cause acute and chronic human diseases. The nature of biofilms is complex and the organisms behave differently from their planktonic counterparts.

The natural history of periodontal disease: The Java study—Origin, implementation, and results 35 years on

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This review describes the origin and results of the prospective longitudinal study to test potential prognostic indicators for periodontal breakdown in a population deprived of regular dental care. Experimental gingivitis studies in individuals highly susceptible or highly resistant to periodontitis showed that bleeding on probing developed ...
