Genomic Evidence on Antihypertensive Drug Targets and Oral Disease Outcomes

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Key Findings Drug‐target Mendelian randomization showed little evidence that genetically proxied on‐target pharmacological actions of most antihypertensive drug classes were associated with chronic periodontitis or dental caries. The diazoxide–periodontitis association requires cautious interpretation, given possible residual pleiotropy at KCNJ11 and ...

Patient Harm From Orthodontic Care (Part II): Incident Analysis of Contributory Factors and Perceived Avoidability of Harm

open access: yesOrthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patient safety, defined as the absence of avoidable harm, in orthodontics is still in its early stages of development. Knowledge on the subject is limited. Aim (1) To conduct an incident analysis, (2) to measure avoidability, (3) to investigate the relationship between contributory factors and perceived avoidability of harm from ...

Comparison of the Remineralizing Effects of Sodium Fluoride and Bioactive Glass Using Bioerodible Gel Systems

open access: yesJournal of Dental Research, Dental Clinics, Dental Prospects, 2009
Background and aims. A carious lesion is the accumulation of numerous episodes of de- and remineralization, rather than a unidirectional demineralization process.

The oral microbiota and periodontal health in orthodontic patients

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The oral microbiota develops within the first 2 years of childhood and becomes distinct from the parents by 4 years‐of‐age. The oral microbiota plays an important role in the overall health/symbiosis of the individual. Deviations from the state of symbiosis leads to dysbiosis and an increased risk of pathogenicity.

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling

open access: yesPeriodontology 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.

The role of antibiotics in preventing surgical complications in periodontology and implant dentistry

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Antibiotics are commonly prescribed in periodontal and implant surgeries, either before, during or after surgery, to prevent postoperative infection and reduce early implant failure. However, the potential benefits may be undermined by the risks of resistance and sensitization, thus requiring a strict indication for prescription.

The European contribution to osseous resective surgery for the treatment of residual pockets and furcation defects

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract For decades, osseous resective surgery along with apically positioned flap procedure has been advocated as a predictable treatment option to reduce residual pockets and minimize periodontal complications during supportive periodontal care. More recently, Fiber Retention Osseous Resective Surgery (FibReORS) has been suggested to reduce the ...

Long‐term stability of transcrestal sinus augmentation

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Transcrestal sinus augmentation has emerged as a minimally invasive alternative to lateral window techniques for vertical bone augmentation in the edentulous maxilla. Since its early introduction and modification over the last several decades, this technique has demonstrated predictable outcomes for implant placement in regions with limited ...
