30 years of enamel matrix derivative: Mimicking tooth development as a clinical concept
Abstract The use of growth factors (GFs) has become a cornerstone of modern regenerative periodontology. While the extent to which GFs enhance tissue regeneration compared to other biomaterials was initially uncertain, it is now well established that GFs play a critical role in the regeneration of various tissue types.

The role of antibiotics in preventing surgical complications in periodontology and implant dentistry
Abstract Antibiotics are commonly prescribed in periodontal and implant surgeries, either before, during or after surgery, to prevent postoperative infection and reduce early implant failure. However, the potential benefits may be undermined by the risks of resistance and sensitization, thus requiring a strict indication for prescription.

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections
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.

Abstract Peri‐implant diseases are dysbiosis‐mediated inflammatory disorders that occur in susceptible hosts. Antimicrobials and immunomodulatory agents therefore might be pertinent as adjunctive measures in the treatment of such disorders. The aim of this narrative review was to examine the existing evidence and assess the effectiveness of emerging ...

Antibiotic‐mediated immune modulation in periodontitis
Abstract Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the supporting structures of the teeth. Although initiated by dysbiotic microbial communities, its progression is largely driven by the host's uncontrolled inflammatory response. While antibiotics have conventionally been employed in periodontitis therapy for their antimicrobial ...

Novel and emerging antimicrobial strategies in the management of oral infections
Abstract Background Antibiotics marked a pivotal turning point in human civilization, enhancing social interactions and extending human life expectancy. In addition to their success in treating systemic infectious diseases, they have significantly improved periodontal treatment outcomes as an adjunct therapy.

Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis is a biofilm‐induced inflammatory condition with challenging management due to the complexity of implant surface topographies and the polymicrobial and well‐structured profile of the biofilm colonizing these surfaces.

Factors affecting the efficacy of nonsurgical therapy of peri‐implantitis
Abstract Objectives and Materials and Methods This article critically reviews the current knowledge on the factors influencing the efficacy of non‐surgical therapy (NST) of peri‐implantitis, taking also advantage of the know‐how from periodontitis management.

Abstract Objectives Global population aging is leading to a greater retention of natural teeth into later life and an increasing prevalence of dental implant therapy. Although advanced age has traditionally been regarded as a risk factor for compromised outcomes, population level evidence remains lacking.

Factors influencing the effectiveness of surgical therapy of peri‐implantitis
Abstract Background Surgical therapy is required in the majority of peri‐implantitis cases due to the inconsistent efficacy of non‐surgical approaches. Although surgical treatment generally offers higher predictability, reported success rates vary widely.
