Synergistic effect of periodontitis and C-reactive protein levels on mortality: NHANES 2001-2004.
Periodontitis is associated with elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Although the coexistence of periodontitis and elevated CRP levels may heighten the risk of mortality, previous studies have not confirmed their synergistic effect.

Ultrasound Characterization of Oral Soft Tissues in vivo Using the Burr Speckle Model [PDF]
Periodontal diseases, reportedly affect 4 out of 10 adults in the USA. The standard of care for clinical assessments of these diseases is invasive, subjective and semi-qualitative. Thus, research on proposing alternate noninvasive modalities for clinical assessments of periodontal tissues is crucial.

Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis poses a major challenge as contemporary nonsurgical treatments show dissatisfactory results and mucosal flap surgery is often needed. Diode lasers can remove granulation tissue and submucosal bacteria, and if it achieves similar clinical results, then it could be used as a less invasive first approach.
