Periodontal diseases result in destruction of periodontal tissues, including cementum, bone and periodontal ligament, with eventual loss of tooth if left untreated. Various studies and clinical investigations have resulted in improved therapies for the arrest of disease progression and regeneration of periodontal tissues. A key factor for enhancing the predictability of regenerative therapies i...

Radicular cyst is the most common odontogenic cystic lesion of inflammatory origin. It is also known as periapical cyst, apical periodontal cyst, root end cyst, or dental cyst. It arises from epithelial residues in the periodontal ligament as a result of inflammation. The inflammation usually follows the death of dental pulp. This paper presents a case report of a patient with radicular cyst as...

The old wishes of people were to regenerate lost tissues of periodontium that this fact is achieved by gen and cell therapy .Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammation around the tooth by microbes that causes destruction of supporting structure of tissue of tooth such as alveolar bone, cementum and periodontal ligament. For treatment of periodontal diseases we can use the biomaterials which ...

Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of bacterial origin that results in the progressive destruction of the tissues that support the teeth, specifically the gingiva, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone. The diagnosis of periodontal disease currently relies almost exclusively on clinical parameters and traditional dental radiography. In this article, the authors review current diagnostic...

autogenous tooth transplantation (att) is a simple and reasonable choice for replacing the missing teeth when a proper donor tooth is available. this report presents a case of successful att of a maxillary right third molar for replacement of mandibular right second molar with a concomitant endodontic-periodontal disease. the mandibular second molar was believed to be hopeless due to a severe d...

AIM To determine whether there is a relationship between periodontal disease and rheumatoid arthritis. METHODS A total of 1520 (852 - periodontal group; 668 - general group) individuals of 30-70 years age group and residents of Baddi industrial estate in Himachal Pradesh, India, were assessed for the prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis and Periodontal Disease (PD). The prevalence and severity ...

A seven years old boy visited our clinic with a periodontal problem related to an erupting lower molar. The tooth showed a 15 mm deep periodontal pocket on the buccal aspect. A microbiologic DNA-test excluded a periodontal origin. The treatment consisted in a local antimicrobial therapy with cleaning and filling up of the pocket with Atridox. Two years after therapy the pocket completely disapp...

PURPOSE According to last years' research, polymorphism of IL-1 has an influence on the progression of periodontal disease. Oral mouth microflora can also have an effect on the disease process. The aim of the work was to evaluate the amount of microbacterial pathogens in the periodontal pockets of patients with positive and negative genotype. MATERIAL AND METHODS Study group comprised of 16 p...
