Functional hyperemia developing in the periodontium after 30 sec chewing of a half of a standard chewing gum plate was studied by a noninvasive quantitative method. In subjects with clinically normal periodontium and normal tonic tension of the regional vessels the peak blood flow develops within the first minute of chewing and further vasomotions restore in 30 min. In changed vascular tone, particularly so in periodontal diseases, hyperemia develops persisting for at least 30 min.

Our review study addresses the issue of tooth loss, which is caused by loss of masticatory function and its impact on cognitive functions, dementia, and Alzheimer's disease. Numerous studies have confirmed a positive correlation between premature tooth loss, reduction in masticatory function and significant cognitive decline observed through learning disabilities, including overcoming ordinary life problems to early and advanced forms of dementia. Reduced numbers of teeth in the main food processing area, i.

One of the most frequent conditions found in the oral cavity includes reactive lesions. Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) is a prevalent condition characterized by an overgrowth, originating from the gingival tissue, periodontal ligament, and periosteum. The condition manifests as a small mucosal nodule and can be difficult to accurately identify since it resembles other lesions.

The goal of autotransplantation of teeth (ATT) is to provide the patient with a functioning tooth to replace a missing one. In dentistry, this surgery has gained significant approval and popularity; nonetheless, there is still a shortage of thorough evidence about its long-term effects. Tooth transplantation has a rich historical pedigree, and the main factors determining its success are the extra-alveolar period, proper splinting, periodontal ligament treatment, and root growth stage.

Teeth exert fundamental physiological functions, such as mastication and speech, and are a key feature of oral health that affects life quality. Teeth are anchored to the alveolar bone via the periodontal ligament, which provides stability to the teeth and absorbs mechanical stresses during mastication. Periodontal infection leads to periodontitis, a severe inflammation of the supporting soft tissues that ultimately cause tooth loss.
