Journal Article
The influence of titanium abutment surface roughness on plaque accumulation and gingivitis: short-term observations.
TL;DR: Clinical evaluation seems to indicate that a certain surface roughness is necessary for increased resistance to clinical probing, and the results indicate the existence of a threshold roughness below which no further impact on the bacterial adhesion and/or colonization should be expected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Full- vs. Partial-mouth Disinfection in the Treatment of Periodontal Infections: Short-term Clinical and Microbiological Observations
Marc Quirynen,Curd M. L. Bollen,Betty Vandekerckhove,Christel Dekeyser,William Papaioannou,Hendrik Eyssen +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that it is possible to achieve a significant improvement of the treatment outcome (both microbiologically and clinically) with a one-stage full-mouth disinfection of advanced chronic periodontitis patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of a one‐stage full‐mouth disinfection on different intra‐oral niches Clinical and microbiological observations
Curd M. L. Bollen,Claudio Mongardini,William Papaioannou,Daniel van Steenberghe,Marc Quirynen +4 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that a disinfection of all intra-oral niches within a short time span leads to significant clinical and microbiological improvements for up to 4 months.
Journal ArticleDOI
The microbiota on different oral surfaces in healthy children.
William Papaioannou,S Gizani,A. D. Haffajee,Marc Quirynen,Eleni Mamai-Homata,L. Papagiannoulis +5 more
TL;DR: Differences in the profile between age groups suggest a gradual maturation of the oral microbiota, with it being made up of an increasing number of Orange and Red complex species.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of periodontitis on the subgingival flora around implants in partially edentulous patients.
TL;DR: The hypothesis that pockets around teeth act as a reservoir for micro-organisms for the colonization of oral implants is confirmed and the importance of periodontal health when oral implants are planned is highlighted.
