Article Abstract

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by inflammation of the periodontal soft tissues and loss of alveolar bone. In the oral environment, subgingival microorganisms and salivary metabolites reflect the host's health status. This study aimed to understand periodontitis severity and progression rate by analyzing subgingival microflora and salivary metabolites to identify potential biomarkers. Fifty-three volunteers with stage II periodontitis were graded using the bone loss (%)/age index into two grades: 33 in grade A (< 0.25) and 20 in grade B (0.25-1.00). Using a case-control study, simultaneously analyzed biomarkers associated with the severity and rate of progression of periodontitis. The red complex, the orange complex, Campylobacter spp., uncultured Candidatus Saccharibacteria and metabolites such as 5-Aminovaleric acid, N1-Acetylspermine showed a significant positive correlation with periodontal clinical parameters. Furthermore, we identified four of the salivary differential metabolites (DL-Leucineamide, Dodecanedioic acid, L-Tyrosine methyl ester and Phenylpyruvic acid) that may serve as potential biomarkers for predicting the rate of periodontitis progression. These results showed that the red complex significantly correlated with periodontitis severity and influenced changes in salivary metabolites. Additionally, biomarkers indicating the progression rate were predominantly amino acid derivatives, confirming that interactions between microorganisms and metabolites may exacerbate periodontitis development.

Objectives: Due to ozonated water's antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, it may be used as a supplementary treatment to scaling and root planing (SRP). The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of using ozonated water instead of tap water during the SRP for people with chronic generalized periodontitis.

Material And Methods: This randomized clinical trial was conducted on 30 patients with generalized periodontitis Stages I and II, randomly allocated to two groups.

Objectives: This study aims to assess periodontal and biochemical parameters and evaluate the salivary Protectin D1 levels in periodontitis patients with and without metabolic syndrome after non-surgical periodontal therapy.

Materials And Methods: Forty patients were categorized into two groups: 20 patients in Group P (systemically healthy patients with stage II/III grade B periodontitis) and 20 patients in Group P+MS (patients with stage II/III grade B periodontitis and metabolic syndrome). Parameters including age, gender, height, weight, body mass index, waist circumference, socio-economic status, oral hygiene index (OHI), modified gingival index (MGI), probing pocket depth, clinical attachment levels, fasting blood glucose, HDL-c, total triglycerides, and blood pressure were recorded.

To investigate the prevalence, severity, and influencing factors of chronic periodontitis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Nanjing. From June to August 2022, by using a multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method, a total of 1 477 community-dwelling T2DM patients aged 35 years and older were selected and included from the National Essential Public Health Services Program for T2DM health management. Physical examinations, laboratory tests, and questionnaire surveys were conducted.

Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming healthcare by improving diagnostic accuracy and predictive analytics. Periodontal diseases are recognized as risk factors for systemic conditions, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, polycystic ovary syndrome, thyroid dysfunction, and post-coronavirus disease 2019 complications. These conditions exhibit complex bidirectional interactions, underscoring the importance of early detection and risk stratification.

The most important stage in the surgical treatment of chronic apical periodontitis is the creation of a sealed barrier that prevents the penetration of microorganisms outside the root canal. The choice of the most optimal material for retrograde sealing is a process that requires special attention. Many different types of sealing materials used in apical surgery are presented.
