Abstract Objectives We aimed to study the effects of fermented lingonberry juice (FLJ) as a mouthwash on the levels of active matrix metalloproteinase‐8 (aMMP‐8) in peri‐implant sulcular fluid (PISF), bleeding on probing (BOP), and visible plaque index (VPI). We hypothesized that FLJ rinsing could reduce inflammation (aMMP‐8 and BOP) and microbial load

Laser treatment and disease characteristics of peri-implantitis [PDF]
Peri-implantitis is an inflammatory disease which affects the soft and hard tissues surrounding dental implants. Current theory is that peri-implantitis is a counterpart to periodontitis, which is the inflammatory disease that destroys the tooth’s ...

Does peri-implant bone loss affect the LL-37 and proteinase 3 levels in peri-implant sulcus fluid?
Background Inactive human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide is present in neutrophils, and proteinase 3 activates this peptide by producing active LL-37 peptide. LL-37 acts as a defensive peptide in the oral tissues. In the present study, the aim was to

Abstract Objective Periodontitis is one of the most important periodontal diseases that can be affected by many factors. Although the mechanism of periodontitis development is not yet fully understood, previous studies suggest that apoptosis may be one of the pathological factors that can affect the process of the disease by destroying old and damaged ...

Antibacterial effects of natural compounds on biofilm formation of Streptococcus mutans
Abstract Streptococcus mutans is the main cariogenic pathogen in the oral cavity, considered to contribute toward oral diseases. S. mutans is predominantly entrapped in plaque biofilms. Objectives In this study, we surveyed the antibacterial activity of natural compounds in terms of the biofilm production of S. mutans. Material and Methods We extracted

Peri‐implant disease education and diagnosis in the pre‐doctoral curriculum
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to assess how pre‐doctoral periodontal programs in the United States of America are educating their dental students regarding the management of peri‐implant diseases and secondarily, to determine if a current standard of teaching exists.
