A novel toothbrush with a thin-head, slender-neck and super-tapered bristles enhancing accessibility in hard-to-reach areas: a crossover randomized trial

open access: yesBMC Oral Health
Background Toothbrushing is the most commonly used method to physically remove dental plaque. However, there are many areas of the mouth that are difficult to reach with a toothbrush.

Dual‐Strategy Design of Heterojunction‐Enhanced Piezoelectric Hydrogels for Periodontitis Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed a piezoelectric hydrogel integrating heterojunction enhancement and dual‐salt synergy, combining robust electrical performance with mechanical stability and bioactivity to better match the periodontal microenvironment. Under ultrasound activation, the hydrogel markedly promotes macrophage M2 polarization, thereby reducing the ...

Early stages of tooth development in the harbor porpoise Phocoena phocoena

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Here we describe the stages of tooth development in toothed whales on the basis of the harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena). The aim of the study was to find out whether these stages are identical to those of other mammals analyzed so far although toothed whales are homodont and monophyodont.

Stem cells and periodontal regeneration [PDF]

open access: yesAustralian Dental Journal, 2006
AbstractPeriodontitis is an inflammatory disease which manifests clinically as loss of supporting periodontal tissues including periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. For decades periodontists have sought ways to repair the damage which occurs during periodontitis.

Mesenchymal stem cell-based tissue regeneration therapies for periodontitis

open access: yesRegenerative Therapy, 2020
Periodontitis is commonly observed and is an important concern in dental health. It is characterized by a multifactorial etiology, including imbalance of oral microbiota, mechanical stress, and systemic diseases such as diabetes mellitus.

Optimizing biophysical properties of cellular niches to enhance stem cell‐derived extracellular vesicle function in musculoskeletal regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from stem cells show promise for applications in regenerative medicine, but their scalability and yield remain challenges. This review explores the approaches for biophysical modulations within cell niches on EV properties, discusses the current clinical application of EVs, and provides an outlook on the existing ...
