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.

Designing Polymerase Chain Reaction for Molecular Diagnostics of the Primary Bacterial Cause of Periodontitis [PDF]

Journal of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, 2020
Background & Objective: Periodontal disease, which can become a chronic condition, is an inflammatory disease that upsets the soft and hard structures supporting the teeth. The aim of the present study was to design and develop an in-house PCR Method, to

Virulence Factors of the Oral Spirochete Treponema denticola [PDF]

Journal of Dental Research, 2010
There is compelling evidence that treponemes are involved in the etiology of several chronic diseases, including chronic periodontitis as well as other forms of periodontal disease. There are interesting parallels with other chronic diseases caused by treponemes that may indicate similar virulence characteristics.

Atypical chemoreceptor arrays accommodate high membrane curvature

Nature Communications, 2020
The main components of the prokaryotic chemotaxis system, chemoreceptors, organize into a hexagonal (P6 symmetry) extended array. Here authors use cryo-ET and report an alternative symmetry (P2) of the chemotaxis apparatus that emerges from a strict ...

Surveying immune and inflammatory alterations in periodontitis among individuals with Down syndrome: A preliminary cross‐sectional study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) are particularly vulnerable to early‐onset and rapidly progressing periodontitis, yet the local immune‐inflammatory alterations that contribute to this susceptibility are not fully understood. This study aimed to characterize cytokine profiles in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) from individuals ...

Tip-oriented adherence of Treponema denticola to fibronectin [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1990
The adherence of Treponema denticola to ligands on cell surfaces or in basement membranes of periodontal tissues might play an important role in its pathogenicity. A direct microscopic assay was used to examine the binding of T. denticola to fibronectin and other protein substrates adsorbed on plastic cover slips. All strains of T.

Predictability of a dental implant prognosis system: A retrospective study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study aimed to evaluate the predictability of the dental implant prognosis system proposed by Kwok et al. in 2023 by assessing implant survival rates across different initial prognosis categories over a 5‐year period. Methods Data were retrospectively collected from patients who received at least one dental implant from 2013 ...
