The Effects of Rapid Periodontal Distraction on Tooth Vitality and Bone Quality/Quantity: A Split‐Mouth Experimental Design

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Periodontal distraction (PD) osteogenesis is a minimally invasive technique capable of rapidly moving uniradicular teeth, thereby shortening orthodontic treatment time. This study aimed to determine whether: (1) PD‐induced tooth movement affects tooth vitality and (2) the regenerated bone meets restorative standards for implant ...

Samarium-doped hydroxyapatite: An effective approach for enhancing biomineralization in dental caries management

Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research
Background: Dental caries is a widespread non-communicable disease caused by interactions among acidogenic bacteria, fermentable carbohydrates, and host factors, leading to tooth demineralization.

Experimental studies on the pH levels that affect demineralization and remineralization of human tooth enamel.

Erbil Dental Journal, 2022
Background and Objective: It is thought that demineralization of enamel occurs below pH 5.5. We hypothesize that it also happens at higher levels. Furthermore, the effective pH levels for demineralization and remineralization differ from person to ...

Comparison of the Effect of Bioglass, Chitosan, and SDF Compounds on Remineralization of Primary Caries Lesions in Primary Teeth: An in vitro Study [PDF]

Journal of Dentistry
Statement of the Problem: Dental caries are among the most common oral and dental diseases affecting adults and children. To prevent caries, either the factors that cause caries should be reduced or the host resistance should be increased.

The oral microbiota and periodontal health in orthodontic patients

Periodontology 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

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.

Laser fluorescence in monitoring the influence of targeted tooth brushing on remineralization of initial caries lesions on newly erupted molar teeth:RCT [PDF]

, 2016
Objective: This study aimed to monitor mineralization changes in initial caries lesions on newly erupted second molars using laser fluorescence (LF) scanning after a 1‐month targeted tooth brushing intervention.

Comparing two quantitative methods for studying remineralization of artifical caries

, 2009
Objectives: To compare the detection of changes before and after remineralization of artificial enamel and dentin caries by microCT scanning, polarized light microscopy (PLM) and transverse microradiography (TMR).

Chemical agents to control biofilm formation in step 1 of care—Toothpastes and mouthwashes/concepts and challenges

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Maintaining optimal oral hygiene is important for overall oral care, ensuring the well‐being of teeth and their surrounding tissues. In addition, it promotes fresh breath and a pleasing smile. A key element of oral self‐care is the daily use of toothpaste during regular brushing.
