Purpose: To investigate the effect of ellagic acid (EA) in gingival tissues injury in rats.

Methods: Twenty rats were categorized into two groups. In burn group, an excisional wound area was created by removing a 4-mm diameter flap from the left molar region in the mucoperiosteal region of the gingiva.

Inflammation-associated long non-coding RNA signature in radicular cyst tissues.

Pathol Res Pract

May 2023

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Adiyaman University, Adiyaman, Turkey.

Article Synopsis
  • Radicular cysts show notable changes in inflammatory biomarkers, especially interleukins and growth factors.
  • Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a crucial role in regulating inflammation and maintaining cellular balance, with specific lncRNAs linked to radicular cysts.
  • The study found elevated expression levels of lncRNAs PACER and THRIL in radicular cyst tissues, indicating their potential involvement in the condition's development, while other lncRNAs showed no significant changes.

Expression pattern of hypoxia-related genes in odontogenic cysts.

Arch Oral Biol

April 2023

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Adıyaman University, Adıyaman, Turkey. Electronic address:

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how low oxygen levels affect signaling in odontogenic cysts, specifically focusing on gene expression.
  • HIF1A and HIF1A-AS1 were found to have higher levels in cyst tissues, indicating a potential link to increased hypoxia.
  • The research suggests that alterations in PIK3CA and PTEN may promote cell survival and contribute to odontogenic cyst formation.

Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the graft material combined with ozonized blood on bone healing in rabbit in maxillary sinus lifting applications histomorphometrically, immunohistochemically and microtomographically.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-eight New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 2 groups as experimental ( = 14) and control ( = 14). In experimental group, 5 ml (milliliter) blood obtained from the ear vein of each rabbit was ozonized by 80 µl (µl)/ml concentration ozone-oxygen mixture.

Asporin levels in patients with temporomandibular joint disorders.

J Oral Rehabil

October 2021

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Dicle University, Diyarbakır, Turkey.

Article Synopsis
  • The study highlights the importance of understanding temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) for effective diagnosis and treatment, focusing on serum asporin levels as a potential biomarker.
  • Researchers compared serum asporin levels between 43 healthy individuals and 43 patients with TMD, finding significantly higher levels in the TMD group, especially in males.
  • The results suggest that asporin could play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of temporomandibular joint internal derangement, indicating its potential use in clinical assessments.

Introduction: The resistance of three different substructure materials - metal (Cr-Co), zirconium (Zr), and ceramics (IPS Empress II) - was measured by sticking them to dentine with two different resin cements, a dual-cure resin cement (Panavia F 2.0 Light) and a self-adhesive resin cement (BisCem).

Materials And Methods: In an in vitro study, 72 central upper front teeth were selected with no decay or apparent breakage and with complete development, removed for periodontal reasons.

Objective: In this study, it is aimed to compare the distribution of stress on periodontal and peri-implant bone tissues in 3- and 5-unit-dental and implant-supported zirconia restorations using finite element analysis.

Materials And Methods: Stress distribution formed in periodontal and peri-implant bone tissues as a result of chewing forces was analyzed in dental and implant-supported three-dimensional (3D) finite element models of zirconia restoration with 5-unit placed on the numbers of 43, 44, 45, 46, and 47 and with 3-unit placed on the number of 45, 46, and 47. Four different loading conditions were used.

Purpose: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the amount of marginal gap with two different substructure materials using identical margin preparations.

Materials And Methods: Twenty stainless steel models with a chamfer were prepared with a CNC device. Marginal gap measurements of the galvano copings on these stainless steel models and Co-Cr copings obtained by a laser-sintering method were made with a stereomicroscope device before and after the cementation process and surface properties were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
