Root surface biomodification in periodontal therapy: Biological rationale and clinical applications
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Regenerative periodontal therapy aims to form new cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone, all sealed by gingival tissue. The root surface acts as the wound margin during this regeneration process. Root surface biomodification (root conditioning/root decontamination), therefore, seems instrumental in promoting surface decontamination

30 years of enamel matrix derivative: Mimicking tooth development as a clinical concept
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract The use of growth factors (GFs) has become a cornerstone of modern regenerative periodontology. While the extent to which GFs enhance tissue regeneration compared to other biomaterials was initially uncertain, it is now well established that GFs play a critical role in the regeneration of various tissue types.

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.

Novel and emerging antimicrobial strategies in the management of oral infections
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Background Antibiotics marked a pivotal turning point in human civilization, enhancing social interactions and extending human life expectancy. In addition to their success in treating systemic infectious diseases, they have significantly improved periodontal treatment outcomes as an adjunct therapy.

Periodontitis and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease with systemic effects that extend beyond the oral cavity and contribute to systemic immune and metabolic dysregulation. Chronic liver diseases, particularly metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its progressive phenotypes, have emerged as major global ...
