Comparative Evaluation of Conventional Therapy With and Without Use of Diode Laser (DL) in the Treatment of Chronic Generalized Periodontitis: A Clinico-Microbiological Study.

Introduction: Chronic periodontitis is caused by a persistent and expanding interaction between a subgingival pathogenic microbial biofilm and the host immune system. The host's reaction to local factors directly influences the inflammation and bone loss that result from these interactions. Depending on variables like the severity of soft tissue damage and bone loss, treatment options can range from nonsurgical to surgical.

Clinical Evaluation of Coronally Advanced Flap With or Without Advance-Platelet Rich Fibrin Membrane in the Treatment of Miller's Class-II Localized Gingival Recession: A Clinical Study.

Introduction:  Periodontal treatment focuses on maintaining a patient's natural teeth and gums. The gingival margin recedes to a point apical to the tooth in 20%-100% of people. Coronally advanced flap (CAF) is one of several effective treatments for this condition.

Comparative Evaluation of the Crestal Bone Level Around Pre- and Post-loaded Immediate Endoosseous Implants Using Cone-Beam Computed Tomography: A Clinico-Radiographic Study.

Introduction  Dental implants replace missing teeth. Dental implants are surgically placed tooth root replacements that secure prosthetic teeth and bridges. Branemark's original dental implant technique included a mesiobuccal flap and a two-stage approach, needing 6-8 months of recovery following extraction, sterile conditions, machined titanium implants, 3-6 months without stress for osseointegration, and a detachable temporary prosthesis.

Nanosponges- Versatile Platform as Drug Carrier.

Background: Recently, nano-drug delivery systems have become an integral part of the most novel drug delivery systems and have gained considerable importance owing to various advantages such as carriers for poorly soluble drugs, targeting molecules at the desired site, protection from degradation etc. Objective: One of the most studied areas of nanotechnology is nanosponges. The objective of this review was to extensively summarize the various strategies for the preparation, characterization and applications of nanosponges.

Heme oxygenase-1, a novel target for the treatment of diabetic complications: focus on diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Diabetic neuropathy is a complex disorder induced by long standing diabetes. Many signaling pathways and transcription factors have been proposed to be involved in the development and progression of related processes. Years of research points to critical role of oxidative stress, neuroinflammation and apoptosis in the pathogenesis of neuropathy in diabetes.
