Genetic Susceptibility to Periodontitis
Aim: The aim of this narrative review was to identify genes carrying risk alleles associated with an increased risk of periodontitis and to place them in a biological context. Methods: The literature was reviewed based on predefined criteria. Results: The identified genes largely fall into functions linking immune response with tissue repair. The genes

The scoping review summarizes the current preclinical and clinical evidence for the use of “cell‐free” therapies in craniofacial (periodontal, bone and soft‐tissue) regeneration. It also aims to highlight key challenges and strategies towards the clinical translation of these therapies.

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and
