Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Objectives This systematic review investigated the efficacy of biologic factors in the surgical treatment of periodontal suprabony defects. Materials and Methods Three databases were searched to identify RCTs comparing open‐flap debridement (OFD) combined with biologic factors only, or combined with bone substitute, and/or barriers to the same

Long‐term stability of horizontal bone augmentation at implant sites
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Horizontal bone augmentation is a fundamental surgical procedure in regenerative implant dentistry. In recent decades, this procedure has evolved, enabling clinicians to achieve predictable and stable horizontal bone augmentation that supports dental implant restorations.
