Cheek tooth extraction in geriatric versus non‐geriatric horses
Abstract Background Age‐related dental changes are major contributors to dental disorders in older horses, and cheek tooth extractions are often required to maintain masticatory function and oral comfort. However, limited information is available on clinical and treatment characteristics in this older patient population.

Endoscope Use to Improve Students’ Periodontal Debridement Skills and Self-Efficacy [PDF]
Purpose: The primary aim of this study was to determine if using the dental endoscope altered dental hygienists’ perception of periodontal disease, changed their instrumentation skills, helped increase self-efficacy, and if multiple uses had an effect on

Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis is a destructive disease affecting the tissues surrounding dental implants. Biomaterials may be applied during surgical treatment to reconstruct bony defects and support soft tissue healing. However, current evidence is unclear if these treatments increase the likelihood of peri‐implantitis resolution.

Abstract Background Periodontitis is a widespread, chronic infection‐triggered inflammatory condition in which professional supportive periodontal care (SPC) and daily oral hygiene form the backbone to reduce the disease activity. Light‐based treatments have shown promising antibacterial effects, but their potential for routine home use has not been ...

Analysis of early phase wound healing after Er: YAG laser assisted periodontal pocket debridement [PDF]
The main effect of pocket debridement in periodontology is a tissue wounding followed by phases of healing. Complex chemically mediated amplification cascade is responsible for the beginning and control of the inflammatory response that can be activated ...

Abstract Background We hypothesized that acne vulgaris (AV) and gingivitis were associated through systemic inflammatory mechanisms, sharing common etiological factors. This study aimed to identify the association between AV and gingivitis and to assess changes in acne severity in relation to changes in the plaque index (PI).

Abstract Background Surface decontamination is integral to peri‐implantitis treatment. However, abrasive mechanical methods can cause implant surface degradation with possible adverse biological effects. No human studies have examined whether these treatments cause titanium release or impair regenerative outcomes.
