Bone health in adults with non‐ambulatory neuromuscular disorders: scoping review of risk factors, diagnosis and management

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Non‐ambulatory adults have an increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures due to reduced weight‐bearing and diminished neuromuscular stimulation, resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality. Aims This scoping review aimed to systematically evaluate risk factors, diagnostic indicators and management strategies for optimising ...

The Effects of Rapid Periodontal Distraction on Tooth Vitality and Bone Quality/Quantity: A Split‐Mouth Experimental Design

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Periodontal distraction (PD) osteogenesis is a minimally invasive technique capable of rapidly moving uniradicular teeth, thereby shortening orthodontic treatment time. This study aimed to determine whether: (1) PD‐induced tooth movement affects tooth vitality and (2) the regenerated bone meets restorative standards for implant ...

Antibiotic‐mediated immune modulation in periodontitis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
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 ...
