The oral microbiota and periodontal health in orthodontic patients
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract The oral microbiota develops within the first 2 years of childhood and becomes distinct from the parents by 4 years‐of‐age. The oral microbiota plays an important role in the overall health/symbiosis of the individual. Deviations from the state of symbiosis leads to dysbiosis and an increased risk of pathogenicity.

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Long‐term stability of conventional non‐regenerative periodontal treatment for furcation defects
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Background Furcation involvement (FI) in multi‐rooted teeth poses significant challenges in periodontal therapy due to complex anatomy and difficulty in achieving effective maintenance. FI is associated with increased periodontal destruction, especially in sites with narrow furcation entrances and deep root concavities.
