CX3CR1hiMonocyte/Macrophages Support Bacterial Survival and Experimental Infection–Driven Bone Resorption

Autogenous bone harvesting and grafting in advanced jaw resorption: morbidity, resorption and implant survival.

AIM To analyse the morbidity arising from autogenous bone graft harvesting, graft resorption and implant survival in grafted sites. MATERIALS AND METHODS Only comparative clinical trials on the harvest of autogenous bone grafts were selected. Studies were excluded if they compared autogenous bone grafts to bone substitutes or vascularised free bone grafts. RESULTS A total of 24 studies were...

Bis-Enoxacin Blocks Rat Alveolar Bone Resorption from Experimental Periodontitis

Periodontal diseases are multifactorial, caused by polymicrobial subgingival pathogens, including Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola, and Tannerella forsythia. Chronic periodontal infection results in inflammation, destruction of connective tissues, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone resorption, and ultimately tooth loss. Enoxacin and a bisphosphonate derivative of enoxacin (bis...

Disodium chlodronate prevents bone resorption in experimental periodontitis in rats.

BACKGROUND Periodontitis is a chronic disease characterized by alveolar bone loss and inflammatory changes. We studied the effect of disodium chlodronate (CD), a bisphosphonate used in metastatic and metabolic bone disease as a bone resorbing drug, in an experimental periodontitis model (EPD) focusing on anti-resorptive and anti-inflammatory parameters. METHODS A nylon thread ligature was pla...
