Published: January 2006

The pathologic mechanisms of periodontal disease are still not completely understood. Current knowledge concerning the pathogenesis of periodontitis suggests an interaction between putative periodontal pathogens and the host defense system which results in the inflammation and eventual destruction of supporting periodontal tissues, including connective tissue and alveolar bone. Bacterial products stimulating host cells lead to a release of inflammatory mediators such as cytokines. These regulators have attracted particular research attention and are suspected to be involved in both inflammation-related alteration and repair of the periodontal tissues. This study - based on current literature - shows the modern understanding of the role of proinflammatory cytokines in periodontal disease pathogenesis.

The progression of periodontal disease (PD) involves the action of oxidative stress mediators. Antioxidant agents may potentially attenuate the development of this condition. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the effects of different doses of humic acid (HA), extracted from biomass vermicomposting, on redox status and parameters related to PD progression in rats.

The therapeutic potential of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in bone regeneration is noteworthy; however, their clinical application is impeded by low yield and limited efficacy. This study investigated the effect of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) on the therapeutic efficacy of EVs derived from periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) and preliminarily explored its mechanism. PDLSCs were cultured with osteogenic media and stimulated with or without LIPUS, and then EVs and LIPUS-stimulated EVs (L-EVs) were isolated separately.

Over the past few decades, dental implants have been successfully utilized to replace teeth lost due to periodontal disease and other conditions. However, similar to natural teeth, dental implants are vulnerable to inflammatory peri-implant diseases, which can compromise their long-term viability. This review aims to summarize the current understanding of peri-implant diseases and discuss effective strategies for their diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management.

Background: Periodontitis destroys the tooth's supporting structures and attachment apparatus. Local or systemic factors can cause it. Traditionally, diagnosis is based on clinical parameters that may not consistently reflect an accurate confirmation.
