Unveiling the Resistome Landscape in Peri-Implant Health and Disease. [PDF]

J Clin Med
Background: The human oral microbiome is a critical reservoir for antibiotic resistance; however, subgingival peri-implant biofilms remain underexplored in this context. We aimed to explore the prevalence and distribution of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in metagenomes derived from saliva and subgingival peri-implant biofilms.

Peri-implant health is associated with low levels of TNF-α. [PDF]

Braz Dent J
Abstract This study aimed to assess tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) expression in peri-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) of patients receiving peri-implant supportive therapy. Twenty-six participants with implant-supported prostheses, functioning for at least 1 year, were divided into two groups: control (peri-implant health, n=8) and mucositis (peri-
