AI Article Synopsis

  • Periodontitis is linked to chronic inflammation and pro-inflammatory markers like MIP-1α and CRP, which are significant in assessing inflammation in heart disease.
  • This study evaluates biomarker levels in three groups: healthy individuals, those with stage III periodontitis, and post-myocardial infarction patients with stage III periodontitis.
  • Results show that periodontitis patients have lower adiponectin and higher CRP and MIP-1α levels, suggesting a potential risk for cardiovascular events, highlighting the need for early detection and treatment of periodontitis.

Article Abstract

Background: Periodontitis is initiated by a dysbiotic activity and furthermore leads to a chronic inflammatory response. The presence of pro-inflammatory markers plays an important role in the inflammatory load. Macrophage inflammatory protein-1 alpha (MIP-1α) and C-reactive protein (CRP) are pro- inflammatory biomarkers that quantify clinical and subclinical inflammation in cardiac ischemia in cardiac inflammation and disease. Adiponectin is an anti-inflammatory marker associated with good health. The susceptibility of periodontitis patients to cardiovascular events needs to be evaluated.

Objective: This study aims to assess the levels of biomarkers in periodontitis patients with and without acute myocardial infarction (AMI) compared to controls.

Material And Methods: Pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory analytes were examined by collecting unstimulated saliva from three groups ( = 20/each): healthy individuals, individuals with stage III periodontitis, and post-myocardial infarction patients with stage III periodontitis. The samples were collected within 48 h of AMI.

Results: Adiponectin levels were significantly lower in patients with periodontitis with and without AMI compared to controls, while CRP and MIP-1α were significantly higher in patients with periodontitis with and without AMI compared to controls. The highest titers for MIP-1α and CRP were detected among patients with periodontitis with and AMI.

Conclusion: Our study provides possible evidence of the association between periodontitis and salivary analytes that occur in tandem with cardiovascular disease. The lower levels of Adiponectin and higher levels of CRP and MIP-1α in patients with periodontitis indicate that this condition is a potential risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The findings emphasize the importance of early detection and intervention for periodontitis patients to prevent cardiovascular events.

Impact of periodontal microRNAs associated with alveolar bone remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement: a randomized clinical trial.

J Transl Med

December 2024

Department of General Surgery and Surgical-Medical Specialties, Unit of Periodontology, School of Dentistry, University of Catania, Via S. Sofia 78, Catania, Catania, 95123, Italy.

Background: Micro-RNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to play an important role during orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) through the regulation of periodontal soft and hard tissue homeostasis and functions. The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of miRNAs on OTM and to evaluate possible predictors that influenced the overall OTM amount at a 3-month follow-up.

Methods: Through a split-mouth design, 21 healthy patients (mean age 13.

Role of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy for the management of peri-implant diseases among habitual nicotinic product users: A systematic review.

Photodiagnosis Photodyn Ther

December 2024

Department of Periodontics and Community Dentistry, College of Dentistry, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Electronic address:

Objective: The objective was to systematically review original studies that assessed the influence of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) for managing peri-implant diseases among habitual nicotinic product (NP) users.

Methods: The research question was "Is aPDT effective for managing peri-implant diseases among NP users?" Indexed databases (PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, Scopus, and ISI Web of Knowledge) and Google Scholar were searched up to and including December 2024 without time and language barriers. Using Boolean operators, the following keywords were searched in different combinations: antimicrobial photodynamic therapy; crestal bone loss; peri-implant diseases; probing depth; nicotine; and smoking.

Background: Dens invaginatus is a developmental abnormality originating from tooth development, including coronal invaginatus and radicular invaginatus. The reported incidence varies greatly due to diagnostic techniques, classification criteria and race. The incidence of dens invaginatus in China was not clear, and the impact of dens invaginatus on periodontal support tissue were rarely reported.

Objective: The aim was to compare the efficacy of local minocycline hydrochloride delivery (LMHD) and antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) as adjuncts to mechanical debridement (MD) for the treatment of peri-implant mucositis (PM).

Methods: Patients with PM were included. The following information was retrieved from patients' digital dental records: (a) age, (b) gender, (c) duration of implants in function, (d) number of implants, (e) depth of implant placement, and (f) mode of prosthesis retention.
