Electrolyzed saline as an alternative to chlorhexidine: Antimicrobial and biofilm volume outcomes in a 4‐day non‐brushing randomized controlled clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The biofilm‐inhibitory effects of electrolyzed saline (EOS) vary widely due to differences in formulations and treatment methods. This study analyzed the impact of EOS on key oral microbial species and used serial 3D‐intraoral scans to evaluate its effects on de novo biofilm formation.

Betaine‐, xylitol‐, and extra virgin olive oil–based toothpaste modulates inflammation and oral nitric oxide pathway: Clinical trial in gingivitis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gingivitis is a prevalent and reversible inflammatory condition driven by microbial dysbiosis. Beyond plaque control, interest has grown in oral hygiene formulations capable of modulating inflammation while preserving key microbial functions. Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), together with xylitol and betaine, has demonstrated clinical

Gingival inflammation and plaque accumulation affect therapeutic outcomes in patients with acne vulgaris

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background We hypothesized that acne vulgaris (AV) and gingivitis were associated through systemic inflammatory mechanisms, sharing common etiological factors. This study aimed to identify the association between AV and gingivitis and to assess changes in acne severity in relation to changes in the plaque index (PI).
