Risk of severe periodontal disease in a Swedish adult population. A cross-sectional study
Ola Norderyd,Anders Hugoson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, potential risk factors for severe periodontal disease were identified in a cross-sectional sample from the county of Jonkoping, Sweden, where 547 adults 20-70 years of age were categorised clinically and radiographically by level of periodonal disease experience.

Rehabilitation of oral function in head and neck cancer patients after radiotherapy with implant-retained dentures: Effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy
Pieter Schoen,Gerry M. Raghoebar,Jelte Bouma,Harry Reintsema,Arjan Vissink,Wouter Sterk,Jan L. N. Roodenburg +6 more
TL;DR: Implant-retained lower dentures can improve the quality of life related to oral functioning and denture satisfaction in head and neck cancer patients and adjuvant hyperbaric oxygen therapy could not be shown to enhance implant survival in radiated mandibular jaw bone.

Fehmi Mercanoglu,Huseyin Oflaz,Ogün Öz,Aslan Gökbuget,Hakan Genchellac,Murat Sezer,Yilmaz Nisanci,Sabahattin Umman +7 more
TL;DR: Endothelium functions were impaired in patients with chronic periodontitis and that they improve following initial periodontal therapy and there was no significant difference between the groups with regard to cardiovascular risk factors.

Gary C. Armitage,Marjorie K. Jeffcoat,David E. Chadwick,E. J. Taggart,Yukihiro Numabe,J. Richard Landis,Susan L. Weaver,Tonya J. Sharp +7 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that sites with high levels of elastase are at significantly greater risk for progressive bone loss as assessed by digital subtraction radiography.

Is collagen breakdown during periodontitis linked to inflammatory cells and expression of matrix metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases in human gingival tissue
TL;DR: The present study showed an imbalance between MMPs and TIMPs associated with the pathologic breakdown of the extracellular matrix during periodontitis, and the active form of MMP-9 could be a marker for the clinical severity of periodontal disease.

A System of Classification and Scoring for Prevalence Surveys of Periodontal Disease
TL;DR: A method for scoring the effects of periodontal disease which permits quantitative comparisons between or within human populations, and which may be applied swiftly and with a minimum of equipment in the field is described.

Pregnancy gingivitis: History, classification, etiology
Daniel E. Ziskin,Gerald J Nesse +1 more
TL;DR: The histologic changes apparently do not arise from a single etiological factor, but are a manifestation of the altered nutritional and the metabolic status of the individual during pregnancy, and the immediate cause of the gingival changes appears to be a diminished utilization of estrogen or a modification of estrogen metabolism.
