Seokwoo Lee Jason Mailhot Arthur F. Hefti Abstract Periodontal diseases are among the most common diseases affecting humans. Dental biofilm is a contributor to the etiology of most periodontal diseases. It is also widely accepted that immunological and inflammatory responses to biofilm components are manifested by signs and symptoms of periodontal disease. The outcome of such interaction is modulated by risk factors (modifiers), either inherent (genetic) or acquired (environmental), significantly affecting the initiation and progression of different periodontal disease phenotypes. While definitive genetic determinants responsible for either susceptibility or resistance to periodontal disease have yet to be identified, many factors affecting the pathogenesis have been described, including smoking, diabetes, obesity, medications, and nutrition. Currently, periodontal diseases are classified based upon clinical disease traits using radiographs and clinical examination. Advances in genomics, molecular biology, and personalized medicine may result in new guidelines for unambiguous disease definition and diagnosis in the future. Recent studies have implied relationships between periodontal diseases and systemic conditions. Answering critical questions regarding host-parasite interactions

ABSTRACT Assessment of tooth mobility is considered as an integral part of periodontal evaluation because it is one of the important factors that determine the prognosis of periodontal diseases.The main purpose of the study was to evaluate the survival rate of teeth with grade II mobility after periodontal therapy.This study was designed as a retrospective cohort study, conducted among patients who reported to the university dental hospital. Subjects above 18 years of age, subjects who underwent periodontal therapy in tooth with grade II mobility, and completed at least a six month followup evaluation were included in this study. Smokers, medically compromised patients were excluded from this study.

N-benzoyl-DL-arginine-2-naphthylamide (BANA) test is a modern chair-side paraclinical method designed to detect the presence of one or more anaerobic bacteria commonly associated with periodontal disease, namely Treponema denticola, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Tannerella forsythia in subgingival plaque samples taken from periodontally diseased teeth. Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy of chlorhexidine chip as an adjunct to scaling and root planning (SRP), using BANA Test Kit. Materials and Methods: A total of 20 chronic periodontitis patients (aged 35–55 years) having pocket depth of ≥5 mm in molar teeth were selected and randomly divided into following treatment groups: Group I: SRP and Group II: SRP along with chlorhexidine chip. The clinical and microbial parameters were recorded at baseline and 1 and 3 months post-treatment. BANA chairside test was used for estimation of specific microbiota. Statistical analysis used: Mann–Whitney test, Wilcoxon signed test, t-test, Pearson’s Chi-square test, and variability test were used.

Abstract: Periodontitis consists of a progressive destruction of tooth-supporting tissues. Considering that probiotics are being proposed as a support to the gold standard treatment Scaling-and-Root- Planing (SRP), this study aims to assess two new formulations (toothpaste and chewing-gum). 60 patients were randomly assigned to three domiciliary hygiene treatments: Group 1 (SRP + chlorhexidine-based toothpaste) (control), Group 2 (SRP + probiotics-based toothpaste) and Group 3 (SRP + probiotics-based toothpaste + probiotics-based chewing-gum). At baseline (T0) and after 3 and 6 months (T1–T2), periodontal clinical parameters were recorded, along with microbiological ones by means of a commercial kit. As to the former, no significant differences were shown at T1 or T2, neither in controls for any index, nor in the experimental

    Instant Update- Getting Up To Speed in Periodontics for 2019 Pennsylvania Dental Association Gettysburg Meeting April 6, 2019 Francis G. Serio, DMD, MS, MBA Diplomate, American Board of Periodontology Staff Dentist, Greene County Health Care, Inc. Course Synopsis Some things change and some things remain the same. The bedrocks of periodontal therapy are time-tested but new approaches to some of these therapies are providing better outcomes for patients. In addition, advances in the science of periodontics have led to both a better understanding of the disease processes and a new classification system for the periodontal diseases and conditions. In addition, as implant dentistry continues to solidify its position, complications are becoming more commonplace. This course will focus on four main areas: The changes in science that have led to the new classification of the periodontal diseases and conditions. Current understanding of the perio-systemic connection. The “semi-surgical” approach to periodontal therapy. Peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis and what to do about it. At the end of this presentation, each participant will be able to: Identify the differences between the 1999 and 2017 disease classification systems. Identify key factors and systemic diseases that have a strong association with the periodontal diseases. Develop a “semi-surgical” treatment plan for a patient with periodontitis. Understand the key factors that contribute to peri-implant disease and possible therapeutic approaches.

    Dental Surgery Clinical Sheet PERIODONTAL REGENERATION ON TWO TEETH AFFECTED BY A SEVERE PERIODONTAL DISEASE Use of an equine origin granular graft in combination with an amelogenin gel. In subjects most at risk, the inflammatory response to bacterial colonization of gingival pockets may give rise to periodontitis, a destructive process that leads to the loss of some of the bone and connective tissue, as well as to apical migration of junctional epithelium. Starting from typical symptoms of gingivitis, characterized by redness, swelling and bleeding tendency, over time one observes a significant change in the biofilm species, where A. actinomycetemcomitans start becoming predominant, as well as red complex bacteria and, to a lesser extent, those of the orange complex. The progress of periodontitis is not constant over time and may vary from person to person, however in its aggressive forms it often eventually leads to the loss of the affected members.

Within this framework, using a graft that may be remodeled by osteoclasts and that is very easy to handle may be a significant aid in achieving long-term clinical success. The use of amelogenin-based gels may be just as useful due to their action on the periodontal ligament.
