The Current State of Clinical Diagnostic Algorithms for Mucosal Oral Lesions: A Scoping Review

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Diagnosing oral lesions remains challenging for many dentists. Despite the availability of diagnostic algorithms, there is a dearth of comprehensive evidence synthesis and a discussion on their clinical and pedagogical applicability.

Lobodontia‐Affected Teeth Exhibit Compromised Integrity and Enamel Defects: A Deep Phenotyping Study

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Lobodontia, a complex tooth disorder characterized by carnivore‐like dentition, presents unique clinical challenges. This study aimed to characterize the physical, mechanical, and ultrastructural properties of lobodontia teeth to inform precision treatment strategies.

Streptococcus mutans Collagen‐Binding Protein Cnm Is a Multifunctional Adhesin: A Structural Investigation

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The collagen‐binding adhesin Cnm is a known virulence factor of Streptococcus mutans. It is present in specific serotypes (mostly e, f, and k strains) of S. mutans and belongs to the LPXTG family of cell wall‐anchored surface adhesins. Here, we report the crystal structure of the collagen‐binding N2 domain of S. mutans Cnm.

The economic and societal impact of periodontal and peri‐implant diseases

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Periodontal and peri‐implant diseases result from a chronic inflammatory response to dysbiotic microbial communities and are characterized by inflammation in the soft tissue and the ensuing progressive destruction of supporting bone, resulting in tooth or implant loss.

Patient‐reported outcome measures and health economics in regenerative periodontal therapy: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding patient responses to periodontal regeneration is crucial. This systematic review and meta‐analysis addressed two key questions: (a) the impact of periodontal regeneration on patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) for intrabony and furcation involvement and (b) the cost‐effectiveness of periodontal regeneration for treating ...

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

Genetic risk variants implicate impaired maintenance and repair of periodontal tissues as causal for periodontitis—A synthesis of recent findings

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...
