Genetic risk variants implicate impaired maintenance and repair of periodontal tissues as causal for periodontitis—A synthesis of recent findings

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...

Photographic scoring of gingival overgrowth

Background: A wide range of methods have been employed to determine the severity of gingival overgrowth resulting in uncertainty regarding the prevalence of the side-effect. There is no simple, non-invasive, objective, blind method for assessing gingival

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Emerging risk factors influencing the occurrence of peri‐implantitis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The objective of the present review is to explore the evidence and biological plausibility of factors that may expose dental implants to a greater likelihood of developing peri‐implantitis. Material and Methods An electronic screening on the PubMed library the was carried out to identify potential emerging factors that influence the

Gingival overgrowth with calcium-channel blockers: treatment options

, 2005
Gingival overgrowth induced by calcium channel blockers can cause significant disfigurement and functional difficulty since it interferes with eating and speech, prevents effective plaque control, and disturbs occlusal relationships.

Impact of systemic diseases on periodontal remodeling: Mechanisms, mediators, and clinical relevance

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontal remodeling is a continuous, adaptive process essential for maintaining the structural and functional integrity of periodontal tissues. While external factors such as bacterial biofilm, excessive forces, and poor oral hygiene are recognized triggers of periodontal pathologies, they do not fully explain their persistent ...

Long‐term stability of periodontal plastic surgery featuring traditional autogenous graft and coronally advanced flap alone

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Coronally advanced flap (CAF), either alone or in combination with a connective tissue graft (CTG), represents one of the most extensively investigated surgical approaches for the treatment of gingival recessions, demonstrating high rates of mean root coverage (MRC) and complete root coverage (CRC). However, evidence regarding their
