ABSTRACT Background This study examines the relationship between the microbial load of selected periodontitis‐associated bacteria (PAB) and proinflammatory biomarkers in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) from patients with periodontitis. Methods GCF and subgingival biofilm samples were collected from the deepest periodontal pocket of each quadrant of 515

Oral Microbiome Alterations in Oral Lichen Planus Across Saliva, Dental Plaque, and Tongue Coating
ABSTRACT Objective To characterise oral lichen planus‐associated oral microbiome alterations separately in saliva, supragingival dental plaque, and tongue coating. Methods In this cross‐sectional study, samples from patients with oral lichen planus and healthy controls were analysed using bacterial amplicon sequencing.

Etiology, pathogenesis and treatment of peri‐implantitis: A European perspective
Abstract Peri‐implantitis is a plaque‐associated pathological condition occurring in tissues around dental implants. It is characterized by inflammation in the peri‐implant mucosa and progressive loss of supporting bone. Over the last 30 years, peri‐implantitis has become a major disease burden in dentistry.

Root surface biomodification in periodontal therapy: Biological rationale and clinical applications
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

The oral microbiota and periodontal health in orthodontic patients
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.
