Majority of provisional restorations are fabricated directly in the mouth. However, there are several reasons where the direct technique may not be feasible and the clinician might need an indirect method. This report describes the use of a periodontal surgical dressing material (PSD) as a quick solution in such situations, utilizing it for short term temporization till the indirect provisional is fabricated. PSD's may be used for short term temporization in cases where the need of indirect temporization requires a patient to go without a provisional for a few days or the definitive restoration can be delivered in a very short span of time. It also opens up the possibility of single sitting abutment reduction at the time of periodontal surgery, using the pack for a dual purpose-healing & temporization.

Patients with hyperlipidemia are of interest because of the possible interplay between chronic local dental infections and hyperlipidemia. This interventional clinical study aimed to evaluate the oral health status of hyperlipidemic patients receiving lipid-lowering therapy for at least 6 months and the effects of non-surgical and surgical dental treatments on serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and lipid markers. Twenty-eight patients with controlled hyperlipidemia and 18 healthy controls were enrolled in the study.

The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to determine the association between rheumatoid arthritis and periodontal disease. This systematic review and meta-analysis of the scientific literature was carried out based on the recommendations of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). We analyzed all studies that evaluated the relationship between the chronic inflammatory diseases through the response to non-surgical periodontal treatment, comparing the values of CAL (Clinical Attachment Level) for PD (periodontal disease) and DAS28 for RA.

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.
