Relationship between handedness and toothbrush-related cervical dental abrasion in left- and right-handed individuals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background/purposeCervical tooth abrasion is the loss of tooth material at the cementoenamel junction, and is usually related to faulty brushing habits. In this study, we attempted to evaluate the effects of handedness on tooth-brushing abrasion in terms

Comparative Evaluation of Coronally Advanced Flap Using Amniotic Membrane and Platelet-rich Fibrin Membrane in Gingival Recession: An 18-Month Clinical Study

open access: yesContemporary Clinical Dentistry, 2018
Background: An amnion membrane is a placenta-derived tissue that consists of numerous growth factors, proteins, and stem cell reserves which help in accelerated wound healing and regeneration. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) also releases growth factors after

Gingival recession: its causes and types, and the importance of orthodontic treatment

open access: yesDental Press Journal of Orthodontics
Gingival recession has direct causes and predisposing factors. Orthodontic treatment is able to prevent recession and even contribute to its treatment, with or without periodontal approach, depending on the type and severity of gingival tissue damage ...

Salivary microbiota and clinical periodontal measures predicting cardiometabolic disease mortality: A nationwide survey

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although periodontitis and oral microbiota are linked to cardiometabolic diseases (CMD), it is unclear if they similarly predict CMD mortality. We compared the predictive ability of salivary microbiota and periodontal disease measures for CMD mortality in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

Diversity and random forest models of oral microbiomes in periodontal health using publicly available data

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evidence on the 16S metabarcoding of supragingival, subgingival, and salivary microbiomes in periodontal health remains limited. We aimed to analyze the diversity and potential of machine‐learning models of supragingival, subgingival, and salivary microbiomes in periodontal health. Methods A total of 848 samples (supragingival = 210;
