AI Article Synopsis
- The study focused on evaluating patients with oral lichen planus (OLP) in relation to dental implants across three different patient groups.
- Clinical observations were made on symptoms and conditions surrounding the implants, including measures like implant mobility and quality of life through OHIP 14.
- Findings indicated that OLP did not affect the outcome of dental implants, as the survival rate was similar to the general population, and it was concluded that OLP is not a risk factor for peri-implantitis.
Article Abstract
Purpose: The main aim of this study was to evaluate the patients with oral lichen planus (OLP) and dental implants.
Material And Methods: Three groups of 16 patients took part in the study. Group I patients had received dental implants and been diagnosed with OLP; Group II had not received implants but were diagnosed with OLP; Group III had implants but not OLP. Clinical observations and OLP symptoms were registered in each case. Periodontal pocket depth, implant mobility, bleeding upon probing, erythema, pain, and radiolucency around implants were measured. Patient quality of life was evaluated using OHIP 14.
Results: Peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis were detected in 17.86% and 25% of the OLP-implant group, while the control group with implants showed 18% and 16%. The implant survival rate in patients treated for OLP did not appear to differ from the survival rate among the general population. Quality of life was better among patients with implants and without OLP (p = .001).
Conclusions: The results of the present study suggest that implants do not influence manifestations of OLP. OLP is not a risk factor for peri-implantitis.

Background/purpose: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by basement membrane disruption, which plays a crucial role in its pathogenesis. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a group of proteolytic enzymes, contribute to the degradation of the basement membrane. The specific MMPs secreted by keratinocytes in OLP lesions and relevant regulatory mechanisms are not fully understood.

: Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) play a crucial role in the tumor microenvironment (TME), influencing the progression, prognosis, and response to treatment in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and its precursors, oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs). This scoping review assesses the current literature on TILs in the TME of OSCC and OPMDs, aiming to identify trends and gaps in the research. : A comprehensive search was performed in PubMed, using the following query terms: "Tumor Microenvironment AND (mouth neoplasms OR oral lichen OR leukoplakia OR oral lichenoid OR dysplasia OR GVHD OR lupus)".
