Aim: To elucidate whether ranked probing depth (PD) data translate into ranked PD outcomes after 10 years of follow-up and the associated tooth loss.
Materials And Methods: From the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP-START), all participants were retrospectively included with complete PD measurements in both baseline and 10-year follow-up, comprising 1887 participants. The trajectory of percentile-based quintiles of mean PD measurements was followed.

Purpose: This study was performed to introduce, evaluate, and compare various novel assessment protocols designed for straightforward, reliable, and reproducible measurement of alveolar bone levels. These protocols are intended for standardized periodontal assessment and follow-up, utilizing cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images and manipulation of Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) viewer software.
Materials And Methods: Two experienced oral and maxillofacial radiologists developed 5 distinct radiographic measurement protocols.

This study aimed to investigate the involvement of macrophage ferroptosis in chronic apical periodontitis (CAP) and determine if blocking JNK/JUN/NCOA4 axis could alleviate CAP by regulating macrophage ferroptosis. Firstly, the models of apical periodontitis (AP) and models of CAP, including clinical specimens and rats' periapical lesions, were utilized to investigate the role of macrophage ferroptosis in CAP by detecting the ferroptosis related factors. The activation of the JNK/JUN/NCOA4 axis was observed in CAP models.
