The objective of this study was to determine if the interaction between common oral commensal bacteria and oral epithelial cells would provide protective effects against the invasion of periodontopathogen . Oral epithelial OKF6/Tert cells were used in co-cultures with , , , and . The viability of OKF6/Tert cells following a bacterial challenge was evaluated by trypan blue exclusion. The adherence of commensal species was determined by CFU counts. invasion in OKF6/Tert cells was assessed before and after exposure to commensal species according to CFU counts. Viability assays show that only and display low toxicity toward OKF6/Tert cells. Both commensals adhere to OKF6/Tert cells at an average ratio of 1 CFU to 10 cells. invasion into host cells is significantly reduced by 25% or 60% after exposure to or , respectively. The results suggest that these commensal species bind to host cells and diminish invasion. This is important in the context of periodontal disease since primarily acts on the host by invading it. Therefore, efforts to decrease invasion will eventually lead to future therapies harnessing the mechanisms employed by oral commensal bacteria.

Saliva biofilm-derived outer membrane vesicles regulate biofilm formation and immune response of oral epithelial cells on titanium surfaces.

Objectives: While the significant roles of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) from individual oral bacterial species in bacterial-host interactions are known, the involvement of saliva biofilm-derived OMVs in peri-implant disease pathogenesis remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effect of saliva biofilm-derived OMVs on regulating saliva biofilm formation and modulating the immune response of the epithelial cells on titanium surfaces.
Materials And Methods: Saliva derived biofilms were cultured on tissue culture plates (TCP) for 4 days using pooled saliva from four healthy donors.

Oral transmucosal administration, where drugs are absorbed directly through the non-keratinized, lining mucosa of the mouth, represents a solution to drug delivery with several advantages. Oral mucosal equivalents (OME) developed as 3D in vitro models are of great interest since they express the correct cell differentiation and tissue architecture, simulating the in vivo conditions better than monolayer cultures or animal tissues. The aim of this work was to develop OME to be used as a membrane for drug permeation studies.

Over the years, advancement in ceramic-based dental restorative materials has led to the development of monolithic zirconia with increased translucency. The monolithic zirconia fabricated from nano-sized zirconia powders is shown to be superior in physical properties and more translucent for anterior dental restorations. Most in vitro studies on monolithic zirconia have focused mainly on the effect of surface treatment or the wear of the material, while the nanotoxicity of this material is yet to be explored.

Purpose: To determine the efficacy of an oral spray and oral rinses to inhibit oral cariogenic dual species biofilm formation on hydroxyapatite (HA) discs.
Methods: The Streptococcus mutans (NCTC 10449, ATCC), Lactobacilli casei (NCIB 8820, ATCC) dual species biofilm formation and inhibition on HA disc was tested using five antimicrobial products, i.e.
