Subgingival Microbiota Shifts Following Diode Laser-Activated Indocyanine Green Treatment in Periodontitis: A Pilot 16S rDNA Study

Microorganisms
Periodontal disease is driven by a dysbiotic subgingival microbiota enriched in anaerobic pathogens, and novel antimicrobial strategies are needed to complement conventional therapy.

Evaluation of Clinical and Theoretical Knowledge of Scaling and Root Planing in Northern Brazil Dental Schools

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Scaling and root planing (SRP) is traditionally the initial therapy in the treatment of periodontitis. So, clinicians should develop a solid theoretical knowledge of instrumentation and the required clinical skills. This study aimed to evaluate the educational exposure, pedagogical perceptions, and the level of clinical and ...

Can Artificial Intelligence Be Utilised to Develop Point‐of‐Care Endodontic Microbiological Technologies?

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Primary or persistent endodontic disease is caused by microbial biofilms that irritate the pulp and periapical tissues. Extensive microbiological analyses of these biofilms and their constituent pathogens have revealed their diversity and complexity.

Distinct Microbial and Host Proteome Signatures Relate to Proteolytic Activity in Gingival Crevicular Fluid in an Exploratory Study of Patients With Periodontitis

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Risk assessment tools for periodontitis lack sufficient precision to predict disease progression. The aim of this exploratory study was to evaluate proteolytic activity (PA) in gingival crevicular fluid in relation to clinically assessed progression risk, microbial community composition and host proteome. Materials and Methods Samples were

The Causal Effect of Supra‐ and Sub‐Gingival Instrumentation on the Oral Microbiome of Elderly Periodontitis Patients Treated in Nursing Homes: Secondary Analysis of a Randomised Controlled Trial

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Periodontitis among nursing home residents is increasing as more older adults retain their dentition. Evidence on the impact of periodontal therapy on their oral microbiota is limited. We aimed to assess the effect of outreach‐based supra‐ and sub‐gingival instrumentation on the periodontal microbiome.

Culturable and unculturable periodontal microorganisms in non-small cell lung cancer: an exploratory analysis

Scientific Reports
The impact of the periodontitis-associated microbiota on lung cancer patients remains controversial and poorly explored. This study aims to characterize the periodontal microbiota in saliva and subgingival plaque of patients with non-small cell lung ...

An Exploratory Longitudinal Analysis of Salivary Host, Bacterial and Fungal Extracellular Vesicles Following 6‐Month Non‐Surgical Periodontal Therapy in Periodontitis

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the longitudinal changes in salivary host and non‐host extracellular vesicles (EVs) following non‐surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT). Materials and Methods Unstimulated saliva and plaque (from a deep pocket) were collected from 25 Stage III/IV periodontitis patients at baseline and at 3 and 6 months post NSPT.

H2S mediates increased interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 production in leukocytes from patients with periodontitis

Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2019
Background: The mechanisms involved in the interplay between the bacteria and the host cells in periodontitis are not fully understood. Aim: To investigate the effect of the bacterial metabolite H2S on the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β ...

Clinical utility of subgingival plaque-specific bacteria in salivary microbiota for detecting periodontitis.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Saliva contains diverse bacteria shed from various oral sites, including subgingival plaque. It is reasonable to focus on the total occupancy of subgingival plaque-specific bacteria (SUBP bacteria), which live in subgingival environments, in the saliva ...

Effect of different cariostatic agents on the surface roughness and color change of CAD–CAM‐milled restorative materials: An in vitro comparative study

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the influence of different cariostatic agents: 38% silver diamine fluoride (SDF), 38% SDF + potassium iodide (RS), and nano silver fluoride (NSF) compared with distilled water (control), on the surface roughness and color change of CAD–CAM‐milled restorative materials: nanoceramic resin (NR), feldspathic ceramic (FC), and ...
