Research Symposium 2019 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH SCHOOL OF DENTAL MEDICINE NINETEENTH ANNUAL RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM 2019 1 PITT DENTAL MEDICINE IN THE TOP FIVE FOR Pitt Dental Medicine maintains it’s number four ranking for National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR). NIDCR FUNDING The profound research performed at Pitt Dental Medicine is responsible for maintaining a steady improvement in rank over nearly two decades —validation of our commitment to exploration, investigation and analysis, and to the quality of the innovation being created here. “This ranking is reflective of our alignment with the goals for research set forth by the NIH. Pitt Dental Medicine has been ranked in the top 10 for almost a decade, but this move into the top 5, at number 4, is significant. It reflects a long-term approach to becoming one of the premiere dental research institutions in the country—in the world. It is a powerful statement of our staying power and the decades of hard work toward international acclaim.” Bernard J Costello DMD MD Dean “Pitt Dental Medicine has been engaged in top-notch, world-class research for many years. Being in the top 5 of NIDCR funding is particularly rewarding, though, because it is the major metric of U.S. Dental School research strength. Pitt is now shoulder-to-shoulder with other particularly strong research dental schools. Our research is at the cutting edge and applies state-of-the-art approaches to establish major research programs that, as evidenced by the success in getting grants, are widely recognized by other researchers outside of Pitt. Contributing to our research strength are the many productive collaborations with faculty investigators at Pitt, across the country and worldwide.” Mary Marazita PhD Director of the Center for Craniofacial and Dental Genetics “This ranking is important to the dental field, our school, and our basic and clinical faculty, as the new knowledge generated will improve patient care and the health of the whole population. Our cutting-edge research is important to patient therapy—the knowledge that they will receive the most advanced care. Our students and alumni should feel a sense of pride in their Pitt Dental Medicine home.” Charles Sfeir DDS PhD Associate Dean for Research “The rankings validate the effort and talent of our faculty and staff and also demonstrate that we, as an institution, are “all in’ with our support of the research missions of the dental profession and the University of Pittsburgh. Unquestionably, the new knowledge that our research generates will be important to improving patient care and population health. The “top 5” ranking, while arbitrary, is certainly something that brings attention to our school and will support our efforts to establish a sustainable research infrastructure. Maintaining that status is a worthy goal and one that, ideally, will continue to motivate us to continue achieving at the highest level.” Robert Weyant MS DMD DrPH Associate Dean for Dental Public Health and Community Outreach “The School of Dental Medicine’s ranking is an indication of its prominence in both dental research and in the FISCAL YEAR 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 training of new dental professionals. The school’s success reflects our campus-wide commitment to excellence at Rank 29 26 25 27 16 17 13 16 12 6 7 17 9 7 9 4 the University of Pittsburgh. I congratulate Dean BJ Costello and all of the school’s leadership, faculty, staff and Total Research Funding $1,181,857 $1,775,222 $2,399,960 $2,290,222 $3,372,723 $3,050,028 $3,795,400 $3,261,491 $4,694,478 $6,260,761 $5,929,316 $3,142,305 $4,832,404 $5,143,805 $6,275,394 $8,487,933 students on this achievement.” Arthur S. Levine MD Senior Vice Chancellor for the Health Sciences and John and Gertrude Petersen Dean, School of Medicine 2 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH SCHOOL OF DENTAL MEDICINE NINETEENTH ANNUAL RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM 3 RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM HISTORY In 2000, the research taking place at the School of Dental Medicine was not necessarily reflective of a school of this prominence. Dr. Mary Marazita became the Associate Dean for Research and drafted a vision to encourage research efforts through the first School of Dental Medicine Research Symposium. After 19 years, it has become the longest-running research symposium at Pitt—and with good reason. Including significant speakers from outside of Pitt greatly expanded this inspiring traditions and the event continued to grow in attendance and significance. Concurrently, NIH funding to the school increased to more than $5 million by 2013. Pitt Dental Medicine has become a significant force in dental medicine research. Since 2013, Dr. Charles Sfeir, new Associate Dean for Research, continues to expand and improve the symposium. Newly identified funding, such as the Michigan-Pittsburgh-Wyss project, is influencing the power of translational research here at Pitt. And Pitt Dental Medicine is influencing research worldwide. Recognizing the needs of clinicians to answer the question “what can research do for me?” the 2019 Research Symposium showcases advancing clinical treatments made possible through the research in biomineralization taking place right here. Pitt Dental Medicine recognizes the power of presenting sensible clinical information in a continuing education format to bring relevance and practicality to research. Mary Marazita PhD Charles Sfeir DDS PhD Director of the Center for Craniofacial and Dental Genetics Director of the Center for Craniofacial Regeneration Innovation intensifies the power and influence of the Annual Research Symposium, enabling it to thrive and successfully become the most dynamic and progressive dental research symposium in the region. 4 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH SCHOOL OF DENTAL MEDICINE NINETEENTH ANNUAL RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM 5 DEAN’S MESSAGE Dear colleagues and friends, It is my honor to welcome you each to the I encourage everyone to take this day as a chance Nineteenth Annual Pitt Dental Medicine Research not only to learn about our latest advances, but to “...at its heart, our research is about Symposium.

Numerous investigations have studied the pharmacologic actions of SP in oral disease therapies but its promising outcomes in periodontal health and treatment are not yet entirely described. The current study has been planned to analyze the reported effects of SP as a support to periodontal therapy to indorse regeneration and healing. In consort with clinical trials, in vitro investigations show the advantageous outcomes of SP adjunctive to periodontal treatment. Yet, comprehensive supplementary preclinical and clinical investigations at molecular and cellular levels are indispensable to reveal the exact therapeutic mechanisms of SP and its elements for periodontal health and therapy.

I thank my committee members: Martina, Hanan, and Nizar, for their intellectual engagement and the political horizons they have opened to me throughout the past few years. My friends around the globe, I hope that reading these pages compensate you with the hours of counseling and listening you had to lead me through. Only you could understand my craziness. My family, although very far from sharing any political ideas, I must be thankful for your encouragement and concern of safety even when you did not know where in the world I was. I thank all the Saharawis who wanted to help by all means while I was in the camps. Many thanks for the NUSW for coordinating my stay and providing me with the logistics, and to the family that hosted me like a family member, not a stranger. I owe a particular debt to one person who shall remain unnamed for his own safety, who made my access to the Saharawi camps possible, and who showed a concern about my research and safety.

The complications of the disease itself suggest that Perioceutics the use of antibiotic alone is not able to cater the symptoms completely. There is a need of other host modulatory Sustained drug delivery system agents too, such as Cyclo-oxygenase –II (COX II) enzyme inhibitors, Matrix metalloproteinase’s (MMPs) in- Antibiotic resistance hibitors and osteo-integrating agents. Also, there is an unmet need of singular treatment modality through which all these agents can be sequentially and directly delivered into the periodontal cavity. The current hypothesis takes it a step forward wherein an antibiotic is combined with other three host modulatory agents in a singular drug delivery system. The encapsulation of multiple therapeutic agents with controlled release would therefore allow for reduced drug dose thus minimizing side effects; contributing to enhanced patient compliance and treatment efficacy. Hence this approach can be presented as a 4-D/multi-pronged approach for circumvention of periodontitis.
