Stem cells obtained from the body tissue, such as adipose tissue, dental pulp and gingival tissue. Fresh tissue is often used to isolate and culture for regenerative medicine. However, availability of tissue as and when required is one of the measure issue in regenerative medicine. Cryopreservation of tissue provides benefit over tissue availability, storage for significant amount of period and helps preserve the original cell structures. The effects of cryopreservation of gingival tissue for mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) are not well documented; however this process is of increasing importance for regenerative therapies. This study examined the effect of cryopreservation on the long term survival the whole gingival biopsy tissue. We studied cell outgrowth, cell morphology, MSC surface-markers and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells derived from cryopreserved gingiva. In this study, gingival tissue was cryopreserved for 3, 6, 9 months. Cryopreserved tissue has been thawed and cells were isolated by using explant culture method. The fresh and cryopreserved gingival tissue cells were cultured and characterized for surface marker analysis, CFU-f, population doubling time, and osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipogenic differentiation. The fresh and cryopreserved tissue has similar stem cell properties. Results indicate that cryopreservation of the entire gingival tissue does not affect the properties of stem cells. This opens door for gingival tissue banking for future use in periodontology and regenerative medicine.

The periodontal ligament (PDL) is a connective tissue, and PDL cells have a potential to differentiate into cementoblasts, osteoblasts, and gingival fibroblasts. This study investigated whether transcription factor c-Myb could induce differentiation of PDL cells for periodontal regeneration. PDL cells were isolated from extracted teeth and cultured.

Background And Objectives: Gingivitis and periodontitis are common periodontal diseases that can significantly harm overall oral health, affecting the teeth and their supporting tissues, along with the surrounding anatomical structures, and if left untreated, leading to the total destruction of the alveolar bone and the connective tissues, tooth loss, and other more serious systemic health issues. Numerous studies have shown that propolis can help reduce gum inflammation, inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria, and promote tissue regeneration, but with varying degrees of success reported. For this reason, this comprehensive systematic review aims at finding out the truth concerning the efficacy of propolis mouthwashes in treating gingivitis and periodontitis, as its main objective.

As gingivitis prevalence is closely related to plaque accumulation, effective oral hygiene is mandatory for maintaining healthy gingival tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of different toothbrushing methods (a manual toothbrush (group 1 = MTB, the control); an electric toothbrush (group 2 = ETB); and an electric toothbrush with daily visual feedback (group 3 = ETBV)) on the plaque levels and periodontal health in patients after receiving initial periodontal treatment. : A total of 67 patients were initially screened in this study, and 60 patients were randomly allocated into 1 of the 3 groups, with 53 patients completing this study.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) has received considerable attention in the reconstruction of lost periodontal tissues. HA has been proposed to play a role in cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, and cell-matrix as well as cell-cell interactions. Although various studies have been conducted, further research is needed to expand our knowledge based on HA such as its effects on cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation.

This systematic review assesses and compares the presence and relative abundance of periodontal pathogens, human herpesviruses (HHVs), and fungi in subgingival and/or saliva samples from pediatric subjects (≤18 years of age) with periodontally healthy status and with gingivitis and/or periodontitis. The study protocol was conducted under the PRISMA statement and registered on PROSPERO (CRD42024593007). Data from seven studies were descriptively analyzed and qualitatively assessed through the ROBINS-1 and JBI tools.
