Mertk drives alveolar bone loss in experimental periodontitis associated with altered neutrophil function and osteoclast recruitment

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Alveolar bone loss is the hallmark of periodontitis and often remains refractory to conventional mechanical and antimicrobial therapies in chronic cases. Mer receptor tyrosine kinase (Mertk) has been implicated in bone homeostasis, yet the immune mechanisms by which Mertk modulates periodontal bone resorption remain insufficiently ...

Salivary Markers for Diseases of Periodontium and other Organs

, 2009
The determination of biomarkers in saliva has become an important part of laboratory diagnostics and prediction of diseases concerning periodontium as well as other organs. Salivary biomarkers (e.g. enzymes, protein markers or markers of oxidative stress)

Quantitative collagen and proteoglycan imaging reveal organic layering, gradients and regional texture in young mature dental cementum

VIEW, EarlyView.
Cementum, the mineralized tissue covering all mammalian tooth roots, helps maintain tooth stability, but its internal organization is still poorly understood. In this study, we combine quantitative histologial methods to map the regional distributions of collagen fibers and proteoglycan‐rich matrix layers in porcine cementum.

Expression and distribution of cell-surface proteoglycans in the normal Lewis rat molar periodontium

, 2000
Cell-surface proteoglycans participate in several biological functions such as cell cell and cell-matrix interactions, cell adhesion, the binding to various growth factors as co-receptors and repair.

Discuss the Rationale for Minimally Invasive Endodontics and the Merits and Demerits of the Concept

Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Minimally invasive endodontics (MIE) places emphasis on the conservation of sound tooth structure and viable pulp tissue during endodontic procedures such as root canal treatment (RCTx) and vital pulp therapy (VPT). The use of minimal access cavity designs and conservative canal preparation dimensions have been investigated as a way to improve

Changes in the Interradicular Periodontium of Rats Correlated with Age

, 1972
Tissue changes in the interradicular periodontium of multirooted teeth as correlated with age were studied in 58 male rats. Cementum thickness in the interradicular region increased considerably, as did the periodontal membrane, with advance in age ...

Effects of Calcium Hydroxide Paste and Access Cavities on Fracture Strength of Mature and Simulated Immature Human Teeth: Ex Vivo

Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim was to examine whether a Ca(OH)2 paste affects fracture strength of teeth. Sixty extracted maxillary central incisors were prepared to simulate immature teeth. Another 40 were used as mature teeth. The ten groups (n = 10) were: (1) immature control; (2) immature + access; (3) immature + access + 1 m Ca(OH)2; (4) immature + access + 12 ...

Risk Factors for Implant Failure and Peri‐Implantitis: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Clinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This retrospective cohort study evaluated patient‐, implant‐, site‐, procedural‐, biological‐, and prosthesis/mechanics‐related factors associated with early and late implant failure and peri‐implantitis. Material and Methods Electronic health record data from a university center were analyzed.

Magnesium Enhances Immune Clearance of P. gingivalis in Macrophages by Suppressing MCU‐Mediated Mitochondrial Calcium Overload

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Magnesium restores macrophage clearance of P. gingivalis by inhibiting MCU‐mediated calcium overload. P. gingivalis is mainly phagocytosed by macrophages but escapes intracellular clearance via MCU‐mediated mitochondrial and cytosolic Ca2+ overload in periodontitis. The persistent P.

Finite Element Analysis of Mandibular Anterior Teeth with Healthy, but Reduced Periodontium

, 2021
Finite element analysis studies have been of interest in the field of orthodontics and this is due to the ability to study the stress in the bone, periodontal ligament (PDL), teeth and the displacement in the bone by using this method. Our study aimed to
