Oxidative Stress–Driven Alterations in FoxO‐1 and MMP‐9 Activity in Smoking‐Associated Periodontitis

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Smoking disrupts oxidative balance and is a major risk factor for periodontitis. Forkhead box protein O‐1 (FoxO‐1) regulates antioxidant defense, yet its contribution to smoking‐associated periodontal breakdown is unclear. This cross‐sectional case–control study assessed reactive oxygen species (ROS), matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐

Fractal Analysis of Periodontal Tissues in Geriatric Patients With Different Periodontal Conditions: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study evaluated the relationship between fractal dimension (FD) values and periodontal status in geriatric patients using digital panoramic radiographs. Methodology In this retrospective observational study, 147 elderly individuals were classified as periodontally healthy (n = 30), gingivitis (n = 32), Stage I periodontitis (n =

Influence of Vitamin D Concentration and Glycaemic Control on the Severity of Periodontitis in Cameroonian Type 2 Diabetics: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This cross‐sectional study aimed to evaluate the influence of vitamin D and glycaemic control on the severity of periodontitis in Cameroonian type 2 diabetics (T2D) and to identify the determinants of severe periodontitis (SP). Methods Vitamin D concentration and blood glucose control were determined by measuring serum levels of 25 ...

Red‐Complex Bacterial DNA in Carotid Atheroma of Dentate and Long‐Term Edentulous Patients and Its Association With Mitochondrial DNA Copy Number

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to evaluate (i) the presence of red complex bacteria in carotid atheroma plaques of dentate and edentulous patients and (ii) the possible relationship between mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNA‐cn), an indicator of mitochondrial function, and periodontal disease.

Periodontitis‐Associated Bacteria and Their Connection to Proinflammatory Biomarkers in Periodontal Pockets: A Clinical Microbiological Study

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This study examines the relationship between the microbial load of selected periodontitis‐associated bacteria (PAB) and proinflammatory biomarkers in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) from patients with periodontitis. Methods GCF and subgingival biofilm samples were collected from the deepest periodontal pocket of each quadrant of 515
