Morphological patterns of buccal bone plate in the maxillary esthetic zone: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This cross‐sectional study aimed to characterize buccal bone plate (BBP) morphological patterns in anterior maxillary teeth and to evaluate their association with other phenotypical and local anatomical characteristics. Methods Two examiners conducted a qualitative assessment of BBP morphological patterns using cone‐beam computed ...

Development and characterisation of in vitro human oral mucosal equivalents derived from immortalised oral keratinocytes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Tissue engineered oral mucosal equivalents (OME) are being increasingly used to measure toxicity, drug delivery, and to model oral diseases. Current OME are mainly comprised of normal oral keratinocytes (NOK) cultured on top of a normal oral fibroblasts (

Free Gingival Graft: A Viable Surgical Option for Treating Mandibular Anterior Thin Gingival Phenotype and Gingival Recession

open access: yesMalaysian Journal of Science Health & Technology
Thin gingival phenotype and thin labial plate bone morphotype predispose lower anterior teeth to gingival recession. Free gingival graft has become one of the periodontal plastic surgeries of choice in dealing with aesthetic demand, impaired hygiene care, and dentin hypersensitivity secondary to the gingival recession.

Surveying immune and inflammatory alterations in periodontitis among individuals with Down syndrome: A preliminary cross‐sectional study

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) are particularly vulnerable to early‐onset and rapidly progressing periodontitis, yet the local immune‐inflammatory alterations that contribute to this susceptibility are not fully understood. This study aimed to characterize cytokine profiles in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) from individuals ...

In vitro testing the potential of a novel chimeric IgG variant for inhibiting collagen fibrils formation in recurrent hereditary gingival fibromatosis: chimeric antibody in a gingival model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Gingival fibromatosis is a progressive enlargement of the gingiva. It may hinder oral cavity hygiene and result in underlying bone loss. The long-term benefits of surgery cannot be predicted.

Dasatinib and quercetin prevent alveolar bone loss in aged mice

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Recent findings have associated alveolar bone loss (ABL) with the presence of senescent cells. Aging and the accumulation of senescent cells are associated with a pro‐inflammatory environment which may exacerbate tissue damage.
