Introduction: Plasma cell gingivitis (PCG) is an unusual inflammatory condition characterized by dense, band-like polyclonal plasmacytic infiltration of the lamina propria. Clinically, it appears as gingival enlargement with erythema and
The present case report describes the oral features of tetraploid/diploid mosaicism. An 11-year-old boy with severe periodontal destruction is presented in this report. He was examined clinically, radiologically, immunologically, and genetically. Significant edema of the gingiva, severe sulcular
Twenty-three patients with generalized periodontitis were examined. Microbiologic examination of the periodontal pouch contents, making use of anaerobic cultivation, resulted in isolation and identification of 103 strains, 76 (72.8%) of which were referred to obligate anaerobes. Facultative
The success rates in implant dentistry vary significantly among patients presenting previous history of periodontitis. The aim of this study was to evaluate if patients with history of chronic periodontitis (CP) are more susceptible to peri-implant disease (PID) than those without history of CP. Two
BACKGROUND
Changes of chromosome number diploid to triploid or tetraploid states are rare in human pregnancies, where the main clinical features of tetraploidy are delayed growth and/or craniofacial abnormalities. The present report describes the oral features of tetraploid/diploid mosaicism.
The purpose of this case report is to detail an initial periodontal manifestation of Crohn's disease in a 6-year-old boy. The first clinical diagnosis, localized aggressive periodontitis, was based on the microbiological isolation of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans from subgingival sites. On
Normally the rat gingival microcirculatory bed is represented by superficial capillaries, postcapillaries, arterioles, and venules of different diameters. The major changes characterizing microcirculation disorders in experimental periodontitis are edema, arteriolar constriction and dilatation,
This study investigated some immunological features by experimental periodontitis (EP) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease interact in destructive processes in arthritic rats. Rats were assigned to the following groups: EP +RA; RA; EP; and Negative Control. RA was induced by immunizations with
Clinical and experimental studies show an association between maternal periodontitis and adverse outcomes during gestation. On the other hand, there were no studies evaluating the impact of maternal periodontitis on the offspring. Thus, our objective was to investigate the repercussion of maternal
BACKGROUND
Local drug delivery (LDD) systems have been proposed for the treatment of periodontitis. Curcumin could be a suitable agent as LDD for the treatment of periodontitis.
OBJECTIVE
To formulate, evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity and to assess the duration of the action and the efficacy
Local drug delivery systems have been proposed for the treatment of periodontitis, and Hylotelephium purpureum may be a suitable agent for use in such a system. The present study aimed to formulate a Hylotelephium purpureum gel (HPG) and evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity and antinociceptive
The study was designed taking into consideration the drawbacks of periodontal dressing and healing properties of curcumin. The aim was to assess and compare the effect of Curcumin gel (Curenext) and noneugenol periodontal dressing (Coe pak) on tissue response, wound healing in the Periodontitis was simulated in rabbits and rats by suturing a ligature to the gingiva. A follow-up of periodontitis development has revealed the characteristic local (edema, formation of pouches, teeth mobility) and systemic (leukocytosis, moderate hypercalcemia, elevated blood alkaline phosphatase
Exogenous PGE1 at pharmacological doses suppresses acute and chronic inflammation manifestations. As periodontitis possesses features of both acute and chronic inflammation, attenuation of periodontal destruction in hamsters was attempted by using 15-M-PGE1, a stable PGE1 analog. The agent was
Porphyromonas gingivalis contains exceedingly high concentrations of cysteine proteinases with trypsin-like activity which have been implicated as virulence factors in adult-onset periodontitis. These enzymes, referred to as gingipains, cleave protein and peptide substrates after arginine (gingipain
