“…PPD on the mesiobuccal and midbuccal sites for all teeth except the third molars was measured, and the mean PPD was recorded as a periodontal parameter. BOP was used as a measure of gingival inflammation [16]. Plaque index score was used as a measurement of oral hygiene status [17].…”

Background: Neisseria has been reported to be a high producer of acetaldehyde (ACH), a carcinogen, from ethanol in vitro, but no information exists regarding whether the ACH production depends on oral microbiota profiles.Objective and Design: To explore the salivary microbiota profiles with respect to ACH production ability in the oral cavity using a cross-sectional design.Results: Using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, we classified 100 saliva samples into two types of communities (I and II). Salivary ACH production ability from ethanol was measured using gas chromatography and was found to vary over a 30-fold range. ACH production ability was significantly higher in the type I community, wherein the relative abundance of Neisseria species was significantly lower. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the subjects with the type I community exhibited significantly higher probability of high ACH production ability than those with the type II community (P = 0.014). Moreover, the relative abundance of Neisseria species was inversely correlated with the ACH production ability (P = 0.002).Conclusion: The salivary microbiota profile with a lower relative abundance of Neisseria species was independently associated with high ACH production ability, despite Neisseria species are dominant producers of ACH in vitro.

“…The full mouth plaque 41) , bleeding 30) , and gingival esthetic scores on the mid-facial 31) and interproximal surfaces 27) were recorded immediately postoperatively after implant placement (baseline) and again at 3, 6, and 12 months post-restoration. The cone beam CT images were analyzed to assess crestal bone levels (implant collar to marginal bone) on 4 surfaces (facial, lingual/palatal, mesial, and distal) at baseline and at 12 months post-restoration.…”

Immediate implant placement can be successful, even at infected sites. The adjunctive effects of concomitant use of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and decalcified freeze-dried bone allografts (DFDBA) at periapically infected sites remains to be determined, however. The purpose of this prospective study was to investigate the effect of combined use of PRF and DFDBA on immediate implant survival at tooth extraction sites exhibiting periapical lesions. Implants were immediately placed in 8 patients under a standard chemotherapeutic protocol. Adin titanium implants were used in all cases. The combination of PRF and DFDBA was used to fill the gap between the implant body and the surrounding socket wall. The final restoration was placed after 3 months. The full-mouth plaque, gingival bleeding index, and gingival esthetics scores were assessed at 3, 6, and 12 months. Cone beam computed tomography images obtained at baseline and at 12 months after implant loading were analyzed. The plaque index scores showed statistically significant differences at 3, 6, and 12 months (p<0.05). The gingival bleeding index score showed no significant difference. No difference was noted in buccal gingival level on the implant surface or adjacent teeth at 91.7% of sites. Complete closure of the interproximal space was seen in 91.7% of the implant sites. Crestal bone levels on all implant surfaces were non-significant. Implant survival was 91.67% at 12 months. The adjunctive use of PRF with DFDBA at periapically infected sites yielded a significant reduction in bone resorption and accelerated bone healing during the initial post-extraction stage. A significant improvement was achieved in the gingival esthetic score at the interproximal and midfacial surfaces. The combined use of growth factors with pre-and postoperative broadspectrum antibiotics over a short time resulted in a higher implant survival rate at the end of the 1 year post-restoration period.

“…The six-point method of probing PD was performed on the remaining teeth, excluding the wisdom teeth, and the PD was recorded at the deepest part of each tooth (mm) as a periodontal parameter. BOP was used as an index of gingival inflammation (Lang et al 1986). The plaque index was used as a measurement of dental plaque (Loe 1967).…”

Chewing xylitol gum provides oral health benefits including inhibiting Streptococcus mutans plaque. It is thought to be especially effective in conditions where it is difficult to perform daily oral cleaning. Our study aim was to determine the effects of chewing xylitol gum on self-rated and objective oral health status under a condition interfering with oral hygiene maintenance. A randomized controlled intervention trial was conducted on 55 healthy ≥ 20-year-old men recruited from the Japan Ground Self Defense Force who were undergoing field training. Participants were randomly assigned to a test group (chewing gum; n = 27) or a control group (no gum; n = 28) and the researchers were blinded to the group assignments. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores of oral conditions subjectively evaluated oral health, and the stimulated salivary bacteria quantity objectively evaluated oral health 1 day before field training (baseline) and 4 days after the beginning of field training (follow-up). VAS scores of all three oral conditions significantly increased in the control group (malodor: p < 0.001; discomfort: p < 0.001; dryness: p < 0.001), but only two VAS scores increased in the test group (malodor: p = 0.021; discomfort: p = 0.002). The number of salivary total bacteria significantly increased in the control group (p < 0.01), while no significant change was observed in the test group (p = 0.668). Chewing xylitol gum positively affects self-rated and objective oral health status by controlling oral hygiene under conditions that interfere with oral hygiene maintenance.
