Periodontal diseases and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Present and future
Abstract For more than two decades the possible association between periodontal diseases and adverse pregnancy outcomes has been extensively evaluated. Numerous observational, intervention, and mechanistic studies have offered valuable information on this topic.

Meta-omics reveals subgingival plaque reconstruction dynamics
Background The homeostasis of the subgingival microbiome is crucial for periodontal health, although the dynamics governing its community variation remain insufficiently studied.

Abstract Background Periodontal diseases are associated with dysbiotic oral microbial communities, but clinically applicable measures that reflect microbial burden across disease severity and progression remain limited. This study aimed to assess the oral microbial burden of periodontal diseases by evaluating salivary and subgingival lipopolysaccharide

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Influence of orthodontic appliances and nitrate on the oral microbiota
In this pilot study, we investigated the bacterial changes introduced on the subgingival, tongue, and saliva microbiota during fixed orthodontic treatment, with or without daily administration of nitrate-containing beet juice for 2 weeks in 22 ...

The human microbiome influences and reflects the health or disease state of the host. Periodontitis, a disease affecting about half of American adults, is associated with alterations in the subgingival microbiome of individual tooth sites.

Abstract This narrative review celebrates Europe's contribution to the current knowledge on systemically administered antimicrobials in periodontal treatment. Periodontitis is the most frequent chronic noncommunicable human disease. It is caused by dysbiotic bacterial biofilms and is commonly treated with subgingival instrumentation.

Association between xerostomia and peri‐implant health: A retrospective cohort study
Abstract Background Dental implants are a long‐term and reliable solution to replace missing dentition, but subject to different patient‐related and biological changes that could alter its success. Xerostomia, or the alteration of the normal salivary flow, can impair oral function and potentially affect the success of any treatment, including implant ...
