Bee SL, Hamid ZAA. Asymmetric resorbable-based dental barrier membrane for periodontal guided tissue regeneration and guided bone regeneration: A review. J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2022; 110:2157-2182. [PMID: 35322931 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.35060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2021] [Revised: 02/28/2022] [Accepted: 03/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) and guided bone regeneration (GBR) are two common dental regenerative treatments targeted at reconstructing damaged periodontal tissue and bone caused by periodontitis. During GTR/GBR treatment, a barrier membrane is placed in the interface between the soft tissue and the periodontal defect to inhibit soft tissue ingrowth and creating a space for the infiltration of slow-growing bone cells into the defect site. Recently, asymmetric resorbable-based barrier membrane has received a considerable attention as a new generation of GTR/GBR membrane. Despite numerous literatures about asymmetric-based membrane that had been published, there is lacks comprehensive review on asymmetric barrier membrane that particularly highlight the importance of membrane structure for periodontal regeneration. In this review, we systematically cover the latest development and advancement of various kinds of asymmetric barrier membranes used in periodontal GTR/GBR application. Herein, the ideal requirements for constructing a barrier membrane as well as the rationale behind the asymmetric design, are firstly presented. Various innovative methods used in fabricating asymmetric barrier membrane are being further discussed. Subsequently, the application and evaluation of various types of asymmetric barrier membrane used for GTR/GBR are compiled and extensively reviewed based on the recent literatures reported. Based on the existing gap in this field, the future research directions of asymmetric resorbable-based barrier membrane such as its combination potential with bone grafts, are also presented.

[PMID: 35321292 PMCID: PMC8936023 DOI: 10.4103/jisp.jisp_494_20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2020] [Revised: 10/11/2020] [Accepted: 12/19/2020] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
The long-term safety of xenografts and their potential association with disease are valid concerns. Bovine bone substitutes which are by far the most commonly used xenografts in dentistry are not biodegradable. The aim of the present report was to raise awareness on the long-term risks of the bovine-derived xenografts. Patients who experienced clinical complications after xenografting are reported. Patients’ demographic, significant medical, and dental findings are reported. Complications included migration/encapsulation/displacement of the graft material, chronic inflammation, and soft-tissue disturbances/fenestrations. Albeit some xenograft complications are not significant enough to compromise the initial outcomes achieved, the xenografted particles seemed to be left intact favoring conditions for migration. The authors observed the inability of the human host to biodegrade the xenograft particles. The intact/migrated bovine bone particles present a risk to patients and may contribute to long-term clinical complications in implant dentistry.

Impact of Periodontal Attachment Loss on the Outcome of Endodontic Microsurgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. MEDICINA-LITHUANIA 2021; 57:medicina57090922. [PMID: 34577845 PMCID: PMC8465214 DOI: 10.3390/medicina57090922] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2021] [Revised: 08/27/2021] [Accepted: 08/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Endodontic microsurgery (EMS) aims to eradicate the sources of infection once the apical root resection removes most of the infected anatomical structures and repairs potential procedural errors in the apical region. An endodontic-periodontal lesion yields a pathological communication between the pulp and the periodontium. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to evaluate the impact of periodontal attachment loss on the outcome of teeth submitted to EMS. Materials and Methods: PRISMA guidelines were followed. An electronic search was performed in EBSCOhost, Embase and PubMed databases with the following search key: (“endodontic microsurgery” AND “outcome”). No filters were used concerning the year of publication or language. Only randomized clinical trials, prospective and retrospective clinical studies in humans, with a minimum one-year follow-up, defined clinical and radiographic outcome criteria and estimable success rate for endodontic-periodontal lesion were included. Statistical analysis was performed using OpenMeta[Analyst] software. Results: Of a total of 113 articles, 34 were selected for full-text reading after duplicates deletion and title and abstract analysis. Thirteen and six studies were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis, respectively. A total of 2775 pooled teeth were submitted to EMS, of which 492 teeth and 4 roots had periodontal involvement. According to the qualitative analysis, success rates of the endodontic-periodontal group ranged from 67.6% to 88.2%. Meta-analysis revealed that the absence of periodontal attachment loss was predictive of a higher likelihood of success with an odds ratio of 3.14. Conclusions: Periodontal attachment loss presents a risk factor for EMS outcome. Although endodontic-periodontal lesions were associated with lower success rates considering a 1 to 10 years follow-up period, long-term successful prognosis following EMS has been reported, therefore presenting a fully valid and viable therapeutic option for the management of this type of lesions.

Abstract
Guided tissue regeneration procedures to treat periodontitis lesions making use of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membranes exhibit large variability in their surgical outcomes, due to bacterial infection following implantation. This work reports on a facile method to obtain antimicrobial coatings for such PTFE membranes, by exploiting a mussel-inspired approach andin-situformation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). PTFE films were initially coated with self-polymerized 3,4-dihydroxy-DL-phenylalanine (DOPA) (PTFE-DOPA), then incubated with AgNO3solution. In the presence of catechol moieties, Ag+ions reduced into Ag0, forming AgNPs of around 68 nm in the polyDOPA coating on PTFE membranes (PTFE-DOPA-Ag). The x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy analyses indicated that the AgNPs were distributed quite homogeneously in the polymeric membrane. The antimicrobial ability of PTFE-DOPA-Ag membranes againstStaphylococcus aureusandEscherichia coliwas assessed.In vitrocell assay using NIH 3T3 fibroblasts showed that, although cells were adhered to PTFE-DOPA-Ag membranes, their viability and proliferation were limited demonstrating again the antibacterial activities of PTFE-DOPA-Ag membranes. This work provides proof-of-concept study of a new versatile approach for AgNPs coating, which may be easily applied to many other types of polymeric or metallic implants through exploiting the adhesive behavior of mussel-inspired coatings.

In-vitro antibiofilm activity of chlorhexidine digluconate on polylactide-based and collagen-based membranes. BMC Oral Health 2019; 19:291. [PMID: 31878907 PMCID: PMC6933891 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-019-0979-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2019] [Accepted: 11/29/2019] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Background In Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR), barrier membranes are used to allow selective cell populations to multiply and to promote periodontal regeneration. A frequent complication is membrane exposure to the oral cavity followed by bacterial colonization. The purpose of this in-vitro-study was to elucidate, if rinsing with a chlorhexidine digluconate solution (CHX) prevents bacterial adhesion, and whether it interferes with attachment of periodontal ligament (PDL) fibroblasts and epithelial cells to membrane surfaces. Methods Firstly, two bioresorbable membranes (polylactide-based and collagen-based) were dipped into 0.06% CHX and 0.12% CHX, before biofilms (2-species representing periodontal health, 6-species representing a periodontitis) were formed for 2 h and 8 h. Subsequently, colony forming units (cfu) were counted. Secondly, the membranes were treated with CHX and inoculated in bacteria suspension two-time per day for 3 d before cfu were determined. In additional series, the influence of CHX and bacterial lysates on attachment of epithelial cells and PDL fibroblasts was determined. Parameter-free tests were applied for statistical analysis. Results Cfu in “healthy” biofilms did not differ between the two membranes, more cfu were counted in “periodontitis” biofilm on collagen than on polylactide membranes. One-time dipping of membranes into CHX solutions did not markedly influence the cfu counts of both biofilms on polylactide membrane; those on collagen-based membrane were significantly reduced with being 0.12% CHX more active than 0.06% CHX. More-fold CHX dipping of membranes reduced concentration-dependent the cfu counts of both biofilms on both membranes. In general, the number of attached gingival epithelial cells and PDL fibroblasts was higher on collagen than on polylactide membrane. Lysates of the periodontopathogenic bacteria inhibited attachment of PDL fibroblasts to membranes. CHX decreased in a concentration-dependend manner the number of attached gingival epithelial cells and PDL fibroblasts. Conclusions The present in-vitro results appear to indicate that membranes in GTR should only be used when bacteria being associated with periodontal disease have been eliminated. An exposure of the membrane should be avoided. Rinsing with CHX may prevent or at least retard bacterial colonization on membrane exposed to the oral activity. However, a certain negative effect on wound healing cannot be excluded.

Abstract
Human derived composite amnion-chorion membrane (ACM) has been used to facilitate wound healing due to reported anti-inflammatory properties and promotion of cell proliferation. This study aimed to assess the antimicrobial properties of the ACM using novel methods to visualize the antimicrobial efficacy of membranes in situ at different time points. Porcine Pericardium Collagen Membranes (PPCM) served as membrane controls. Circular pieces of the membranes were used in three different assays: insert, agar contact and glass-bottom well assays. Streptococcus gordonii were spotted onto the membranes and the plates were subsequently centrifuged to ensure direct bacterial contact with the membranes in the insert and agar contact assays, thus better mimicking bacterial adherence in the oral cavity. After incubation at 37 °C for 8, 24, and 48 hours, the membranes were dyed with the Live/Dead BacLight Bacterial Viability fluorescence stain and analyzed via confocal microscopy. The results demonstrated that the ACM completely inhibited bacterial growth at all time points, whereas the PPCM did not demonstrate any antimicrobial properties. Within the limits of this study, the ACM showed extremely high antimicrobial efficacy against oral streptococci. In addition, our methods may be useful in assessing antimicrobial properties for biomaterials with minimum diffusion ability, when traditional assessment methods are not applicable.

Antimicrobial Activity of an Amnion-Chorion Membrane to Oral Microbes. Int J Dent 2019; 2019:1269534. [PMID: 31379946 PMCID: PMC6657630 DOI: 10.1155/2019/1269534] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2019] [Accepted: 06/09/2019] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate wound biomodification by assessing antimicrobial properties present within a human-derived composite amnion-chorion membrane (ACM). Methods Membranes analyzed were the human-derived ACM BioXclude™ and the porcine-derived collagen membrane Bio-Gide®. Paper discs with and without tetracycline served as positive and negative controls, respectively. The same number of colony-forming units per milliliter for each bacterial species (Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Streptococcus mutans, and Streptococcus oralis) was inoculated on each of the discs. Discs from each group were removed at 12 and 24 hours and sonicated to remove the bacteria off the membranes. A serial dilution was performed to quantify bacterial growth. Results The ACM inhibited growth at all time points, with all bacterial strains, identical to the negative control tetracycline discs. The collagen membrane and positive controls did not inhibit growth of any of the bacterial species throughout the 24-hour study period. P < 0.05 for microbial growth on ACM or negative control vs. either collagen membrane or positive control. Conclusion ACM was proven to be as bactericidal as paper discs inoculated with tetracycline at its minimum bactericidal concentration. The ACM bactericidal property may be beneficial in the early wound healing process.

Abstract
Guided tissue/bone regeneration (GTR/GBR) is a widely used procedure in contemporary dentistry. To achieve the required results of tissue regeneration, soft tissues that reproduce quickly are separated from the slow-growing bone tissue by membranes. Many types of membranes are currently in use, but none of them fulfil all of the desired features. To address this issue, further research on developing new membranes with better separation characteristics, such as membrane modification, is needed. Many of the current innovative modified materials are still in the phase of in vitro and experimental studies. A collective review on new trends in membrane modification to GTR/GBR is needed due to the widespread use of polymeric membranes and the constant development in the field of dentistry. Therefore, the aim of this review was to present an overview of polymeric membrane modifications to the GTR/GBR reported in the literature. The authors searched databases, including PubMed, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and OVID, for relevant studies that were published during 1999-2019. The following keywords were used: guided tissue regeneration, membranes, coating, and modification. A total of 17 papers were included in this review. Furthermore, the articles were divided into three groups that were based on the type of membrane modification: antibiotic coating, ion-use modifications, and others modifications, thus providing an overview of current existing knowledge in the field and encouraging further research. The results of included studies on modified barrier membranes seem to be promising, both in terms of safety and benefits for patients. However, modifications result in a large spectrum of effects. Further clinical studies are needed on a large group of patients to clearly confirm the effects that were observed in animal and in vitro studies.

Abstract
The periodontium, consisting of gingiva, periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone, is a hierarchically organized tissue whose primary role is to provide physical and mechanical support to the teeth. Severe cases of periodontitis, an inflammatory condition initiated by an oral bacterial biofilm, can lead to significant destruction of soft and hard tissues of the periodontium and result in compromised dental function and aesthetics. Although current treatment approaches can limit the progression of the disease by controlling the inflammatory aspect, complete periodontal regeneration cannot be predictably achieved. Various tissue engineering approaches are investigated for their ability to control the critical temporo-spatial wound healing events that are essential for achieving periodontal regeneration. This paper reviews recent progress in the field of periodontal tissue engineering with an emphasis on advanced 3D multiphasic tissue engineering constructs (TECs) and provides a critical analysis of their regenerative potential and limitations. The review also elaborates on the future of periodontal tissue engineering, including scaffold customization for individual periodontal defects, TEC's functionalization strategies for imparting enhanced bioactivity, periodontal ligament fiber guidance, and the utilization of chair-side regenerative solutions that can facilitate clinical translation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this retrospective clinical study was to evaluate the effect of lesion types related to endodontic microsurgery on the clinical outcome. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who underwent endodontic microsurgery between March 2001 and March 2014 with a postoperative follow-up period of at least 1 year were included in the study. Survival analyses were conducted to compare the clinical outcomes between isolated endodontic lesion group (endo group) and endodontic-periodontal combined lesion group (endo-perio group) and to evaluate other clinical variables. To reduce the effect of selection bias in this study, the estimated propensity scores were used to match the cases of the endo group with those of the endo-perio group. RESULTS Among the 414 eligible cases, the 83 cases in the endo-perio group were matched to 166 out of the 331 cases in the endo group based on propensity score matching (PSM). The cumulated success rates of the endo and endo-perio groups were 87.3 and 72.3%, respectively. The median success period of the endo-perio group was 12 years (95% CI: 5.507, 18.498). Lesion type was found to be significant according to both Log-rank test (P = 0.002) and Cox proportional hazard regression analysis (P = 0.001). Among the other clinical variables, sex (female or male), age, and tooth type (anterior, premolar, or molar) were determined to be significant in Cox regression analysis (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Endodontic-periodontal combined lesions had a negative effect on the clinical outcome based on an analysis that utilized PSM, a useful statistical matching method for observational studies. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Lesion type is a significant predictor of the outcome of endodontic microsurgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Periodontal disease is one of the most prevalent afflictions worldwide. It is an infection of the periodontium as a result of subgingival colonization of the specific microbiota, leading to loss of attachment, which requires optimal care for regeneration to its pre-disease state. Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) is one of the successful treatment modalities in Periodontal Regenerative Therapy, but is vulnerable to bacterial colonization. The conflict between usage of classical antibiotics and plant origin antimicrobial agents has recently been in the limelight. AIM The aim of this study was to assess the in vitro antimicrobial activity of amoxicillin, metronidazole and green coffee extract loaded onto GTR membrane against periodonto-pathogens. MATERIALS AND METHODS Pure form of amoxicillin, metronidazole and green coffee extract were obtained. One percent concentration of each antimicrobial agent was prepared by appropriate dilution with distilled water. GTR membrane was cut into a size of 1x0.5 cm under sterile conditions and was coated with the antimicrobial agents respectively and with distilled water as the negative control. Antimicrobial activity was checked against Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A. actinomycetemcomitans) and Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) using agar disc diffusion method. The statistical analysis was done using Kruskal Wallis ANOVA and Mann-Whitney U test. RESULTS One percent amoxicillin showed level of significance (p>0.05) against both A. actinomycetemcomitans and P. gingivalis. Green coffee extract showed no zone of inhibition against both the bacterial species. CONCLUSION Loading of commercially available antimicrobial agents onto GTR membrane can prevent its bacterial colonization leading to better treatment outcomes for periodontal regeneration.

Abstract
Endodontic failure is mainly associated with the persistence of microbial infection in the root canal system and/or the periradicular area. Microorganisms and their toxins located in the root canal system may trigger apical periodontitis and tissue destruction. Tissue regeneration in periapical surgery by using membrane barriers has shown an improved healing and bone closure. However, bacterial membrane contamination is a main reason of failure. In this in vitro study, different brands of chlorhexidine, a combination of chitosan nanoparticles containing chlorhexidine were tested against Enterococcus faecalis on agar plate's cultures and infected collagen membranes. Our results indicated that chitosan nanoparticles acted synergistically with chlorhexidine, inhibiting and eliminating significantly a greater amount of colony former units in both BHI-agar cultures and infected collagen membranes. These results suggested that chitosan nanoparticles could be used to improve regenerative procedures in periapical surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Bacterial contamination of sites undergoing guided tissue regeneration (GTR) therapy may reduce the efficiency of periodontal regeneration. This study compared bacterial adhesion onto various GTR membranes incorporated with antibiotics. METHODS Three barrier membranes, including expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) membrane, collagen membrane, and glycolide fiber membrane, were loaded with tetracycline or amoxicillin. The adhesion of Streptococcus mutans and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans onto the GTR membranes with or without antibiotics was analyzed using the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis. RESULTS The SEM analysis showed no apparent alteration in the physical structure of the membranes loaded with antibiotics. Both S. mutans and A. actinomycetemcomitans attached best on the collagen membranes, followed by the ePTFE membranes, and then the glycolide fiber membranes without antibiotics. Moreover, higher numbers of bacteria were observed on the fibril areas than on the laminar areas of the ePTFE membranes. The amounts of attached bacteria on the GTR membranes increased after longer incubation. Incorporation of tetracycline or amoxicillin greatly reduced the adhesion of S. mutans and A. actinomycetemcomitans onto all of the GTR membranes examined. CONCLUSION Incorporation of tetracycline or amoxicillin greatly reduced adhesion of S. mutans or A. actinomycetemcomitans on the ePTFE, glycolide fiber, or collagen membranes. This finding indicates that it is valuable and effective to use the antibiotic-loaded GTR membranes for periodontal regeneration therapy.

Abstract
Various strategies have been developed to promote bone regeneration in the craniofacial region. Most of these interventions utilize implantable materials or devices. Infections resulting from colonization of these implants may result in local tissue destruction in a manner analogous to periodontitis. This destruction is mediated via the expression of various inflammatory mediators and tissue-destructive enzymes. Given the well-documented association among microbial biofilms, inflammatory mediators, and tissue destruction, it seems reasonable to assume that inflammation may interfere with bone healing and regeneration. Paradoxically, recent evidence also suggests that the presence of certain pro-inflammatory mediators is actually required for bone healing. Bone injury (e.g., subsequent to a fracture or surgical intervention) is followed by a choreographed cascade of events, some of which are dependent upon the presence of pro-inflammatory mediators. If inflammation resolves promptly, then proper bone healing may occur. However, if inflammation persists (which might occur in the presence of an infected implant or graft material), then the continued inflammatory response may result in suboptimal bone formation. Thus, the effect of a given mediator is dependent upon the temporal context in which it is expressed. Better understanding of this temporal sequence may be used to optimize regenerative outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Establishing a safe prophylactic antimicrobial protocol in bone grafting may enhance osseous volume outcomes. The purpose of this in vitro study is to assess human osteoblast response and safety after explant antimicrobial exposure. METHODS Fresh human bone explants were exposed to three antimicrobials: povidone-iodine (PovI; 0.05%, 1%, and 5%), chlorhexidine (CHX; 0.2% and 1%), and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl; 2.5%, 4.5%, and 5.25%) at different times (15, 30, 45, and 60 seconds) and concentrations to assess cellular toxicity. Explants were washed three times with saline after exposure. Controls, explants cultured in the absence of antimicrobials, were performed for all experimental situations tested. Trials were conducted in triplicate. Particle size influence on osteoblast growth was determined between bone fragments with a diameter <2 and ≥2 to 5 mm. Test and control groups were monitored by light microscopy to evaluate cellular growth. Osteoblast differentiation and morphology was assessed by alkaline phosphatase activity and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). RESULTS Osteoblast growth was similar for particles <2 and ≥2 to 5 mm. Alkaline phosphatase control reference values were not significantly different from test groups (0.35 mU/mL ± 0.004 versus 0.34 mU/mL ± 0.009; P >0.05). Light microscopy showed on average 97% osteoblastic growth for bone particles exposed to PovI 5% and CHX 0.2% for all times and CHX 1% up to 30 seconds. The odds ratio of positive osteoblastic growth after a 30-second 2.5% NaOCl exposure was 2.4 times higher than after 5.25%. On average, one of two replicas yielded positive growth with 2.5% NaOCl and one of three with 5.25%. After 60-second explant exposure, positive osteoblastic growth was 7.7 times more likely to occur with 5% PovI or 0.2% CHX than with 5.25% NaOCl (P <0.05). SEM analysis confirmed light microscopy similar cellular adhesion and osteoblast phenotypic features between test and control groups. CONCLUSIONS Best osteoblastic growth occurred after bone PovI exposure and CHX 0.2%. Cellular toxicity seems to be influenced by the type of antimicrobial, concentration, and exposure time. SEM analysis confirmed absence of osteoblast phenotypic alterations after exposure. Decontamination agents can safely be used in bone transplantation using up to 5% PovI and 0.2% CHX for 1 minute and CHX 1% for 30 seconds.

Abstract
The concept that only fibroblasts from the periodontal ligament or undifferentiated mesenchymal cells have the potential to re-create the original periodontal attachment has been long recognized. Based on this concept, guided tissue regeneration has been applied with variable success to regenerate periodontal defects. Quantitative analysis of clinical outcomes after guided tissue regeneration suggests that this therapy is a successful and predictable procedure to treat narrow intrabony defects and class II mandibular furcations, but offers limited benefits in the treatment of other types of periodontal defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study compared bacterial penetration through guided tissue regeneration (GTR) membranes impregnated with antibiotics. METHODS Three barrier membranes, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) membrane, collagen membrane, and glycolide fiber composite membrane, were loaded with amoxicillin or tetracycline. The penetration of Streptococcus mutans and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (previously Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans) through the GTR membranes was achieved using a device consisting of an inner tube and an outer bottle filled with culture media. RESULTS The penetration of S. mutans or A. actinomycetemcomitans into the inner tubes significantly decreased with all of the antibiotic-loaded membranes compared to membranes without antibiotics. However, differences were found in the behavior of the three membranes. The antibiotic-loaded ePTFE membranes showed the best barrier effect. Moreover, the inhibitory effect of tetracycline on S. mutans was greater than that of amoxicillin for all GTR membranes. Furthermore, the inhibitory effect of tetracycline on A. actinomycetemcomitans was lower than that of amoxicillin with the glycolide fiber membrane. CONCLUSIONS The results showed that penetration of S. mutans and A. actinomycetemcomitans through amoxicillin- or tetracycline-loaded ePTFE membrane, glycolide fiber membrane, and collagen membrane was delayed and/or reduced. Thus, incorporation of an antibiotic into the membrane may be of value when controlling membrane-associated infection during GTR therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The oral occurrence of putative microbial pathogens in humans has been documented in health and disease. The presence of periodontopathogens in patients with a history of periodontal disease may have a negative impact on bone regeneration. This investigation was conducted to confirm the presence of periodontal pathogens in bone particles harvested intraorally for maxillary sinus augmentation and to assess the clinical and radiographic outcomes 6 to 12 months after bone augmentation. METHODS Culture and polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based identification were performed by paper-point sampling of intraorally harvested bone particles in a group of 12 maintenance patients undergoing maxillary sinus augmentation. Radiographs were taken to assess and compare bone healing and volume gain at baseline and at 6 to 12 months after augmentation. RESULTS The presence of periodontal pathogens (Porphyromonas gingivalis, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans [previously Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans], Prevotella intermedia, Tannerella forsythia [previously T. forsythensis], Fusobacterium nucleatum, Parvimonas micra [previously Peptostreptococcus micros or Micromonas micros], Campylobacter rectus, enteric Gram-negative rods, and Dialister pneumosintes) was identified in 10 of 12 patients (83%) by culture, PCR, or both and was associated with greater bone volume loss at 6 months postaugmentation. The PCR-positive triad, P. gingivalis, A. actinomycetemcomitans, and P. intermedia, was associated with pronounced volume loss of the grafted sinus at 6 months. CONCLUSIONS To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to confirm osseous microbial contamination with major periodontopathogens in individuals undergoing maxillary sinus augmentation with a history of periodontitis. The effect on the grafting outcome translated into bone volume loss in the grafted sinus 6 months postaugmentation. Specific microbial contamination may have an impact on osteogenesis in osseous regeneration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim was to answer three relevant questions: can systemic antimicrobials be efficacious if the biofilm is not disrupted? Can the type of debridement of the subgingival biofilm impact upon the clinical outcomes of the adjunctive antimicrobial therapy? Is the efficacy of the adjunctive systemic antimicrobial therapy dependent on the quality of the debridement of the subgingival biofilm and the sequence debridement-antibiotic usage? MATERIAL AND METHODS Relevant papers were searched, critically analysed and their data were extracted. RESULTS For the first question, studies assessing susceptibility of bacteria in biofilms, and clinical studies evaluating systemic antimicrobials as monotherapy, were reviewed. For the second question, clinical studies comparing systemic antimicrobials as adjuncts to non-surgical debridement or to periodontal surgery and clinical trials using systemic antibiotics with periodontal surgery were evaluated. For the third question, a previous systematic review was updated. CONCLUSION If systemic antimicrobials are indicated in periodontal therapy, they should be adjunctive to mechanical debridement. There is not enough evidence to support their use with periodontal surgery. Indirect evidence suggests that antibiotic intake should start on the day of debridement completion, debridement should be completed within a short time (preferably <1 week) and with an adequate quality, to optimize the results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate acellular dermal matrix (ADM) as a membrane for guided tissue regeneration (GTR) in the treatment of mandibular Class II furcation lesions and to compare it to a bioabsorbable membrane. METHODS Class II furcation lesions were created surgically and chronified in six mongrel dogs on the buccal surfaces of mandibular third and fourth premolars, bilaterally. After 1 month, GTR was performed. Each side was assigned randomly to the control group (CGr: bioabsorbable membrane made of polyglycolic acid: trimethylene carbonate) or the test group (TGr: ADM as a membrane). Clinical measurements of the width and thickness of the keratinized tissue (WKT and TKT, respectively) were made before GTR. The dogs were sacrificed 12 weeks following GTR, and histomorphometric analysis was performed. Area measurements were taken of new tissue, epithelium, connective tissue, and new bone; bone height and new cementum were measured. RESULTS The formation of new bone, cementum, and periodontal ligament were similar in both groups. There were no statistically significant differences between the groups for any histomorphometric measurement. The TGr had a statistically significant increase in WKT and TKT after 3 months. The mean TKT gain was 1.03 mm for the TGr and 0.26 mm for the CGr (P <0.05). CONCLUSION The ADM demonstrated histomorphometric results similar to the bioabsorbable membrane and resulted in a greater increase in the thickness of the keratinized tissue.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Teeth with a palatal groove often present with severe localized periodontal attachment loss including pocket formation and alveolar bone loss. The aim of the present case report was to describe the regenerative surgical treatment of periodontal and bone lesions associated with the subgingival extension of a palatal groove affecting a maxillary lateral incisor. METHODS The left maxillary lateral incisor of a systemically healthy young subject presented with a palatal probing depth of 10 mm with no gingival recession at the buccal and palatal surfaces; the neighboring interdental papillae were intact. The radiograph showed a radiolucency area distal to the affected tooth. Treatment procedures consisted of: 1) the papilla amplification flap with the use of enamel matrix proteins as the regenerative periodontal material; 2) the elimination/flattening of the radicular portion of the palatal groove; and 3) the sealing of the coronal portion of the groove with composite flow. RESULTS The clinical examination at 1 year revealed a clinical attachment gain (8 mm) with a shallow residual probing depth (2 mm) and no increase in gingival recession. The radiographic examination showed the complete disappearance of the radiolucency area suggesting bone fill. CONCLUSIONS The present study indicated that localized periodontal defects associated with a palatal groove can be successfully treated by means of the papilla amplification flap with the use of enamel matrix protein as the regenerative material. The long-term stability of such successful results needs to be determined.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the influence of autologous platelet concentrate (APC) on early wound healing and regeneration outcomes following guided tissue regeneration (GTR) therapy. MATERIAL AND METHODS In 25 patients, two contralateral deep intra-bony defects were treated with beta-TCP and a bioresorbable GTR membrane. They were randomly assigned to test and control procedure. In test defects, APC was additionally applied. After 3, 6, and 12 months, healing results were assessed by clinical parameters and quantitative digital subtraction radiography. RESULTS Post-operative membrane exposures occurred in 48% of the test sites and 80% of the control sites. Both groups revealed a significant clinical attachment level (CAL) gain of 5 mm after 12 months. Eighty-eight per cent of test and control sites showed a CAL gain of > or =4 mm. No clinical parameter revealed significant differences between test and control sites. A significant bone density gain was found in both groups after 3, 6, and 12 months. Only after 6 months, the bone density gain was significantly greater in the test defects. CONCLUSION Within the limits of this study, autologous platelet concentrate did not seem to have a noticeable influence on the clinical and most of the radiographic outcomes following GTR. However, APC might reduce the occurrence of post-operative membrane exposures and accelerate bone density gain.

Abstract
The treatment of periodontitis/peri-implantitis involves the reduction/eradication of periopathogens. After therapy, beneficial and pathogenic species recolonize the subgingival area. The dynamics of recolonization and especially the role of the supragingival environment in this process are still not well-understood. This prospective, split-mouth study followed the early colonization of 'pristine' pockets created during implant surgery (16 partially edentulous patients), to record the time needed before a complex subgingival flora could be established with the supragingival area as the single source. Four subgingival plaque samples were taken from shallow and medium pockets around implants (test), and neighboring teeth (undisturbed microbiota as reference) 1, 2, and 4 wks after abutment connection. Checkerboard DNA-DNA hybridization and culture data revealed a complex microbiota (including several pathogenic species) in the pristine pockets within a wk, with a minimal increase in counts up to 4 wks. Analysis of these data demonstrated that, even with the supragingival environment as the single source for colonizing bacteria, a complex subgingival microbiota can develop within 1 wk.

Abstract
One of the most important indications for guided tissue regeneration (GTR) treatment is class II furcation lesion. However, periodontal regeneration of this type of defect, although possible, is not considered totally predictable, especially in terms of complete bone fill. Many factors may account for variability in the response to regenerative therapy in class II furcation. The purpose of this review is to assess the prognostic significance of factors related to the patient (smoking, stress, diabetes mellitus, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and other acute and debilitating diseases, and the presence of multiple deep periodontal pockets), local factors (furcal anatomy, defect morphology, thickness of gingival tissue and tooth mobility), surgical treatment (infection control, bone replacement grafts combined with barriers or GTR alone, type of barrier and surgical technique), and postoperative period (plaque control, membrane exposure, membrane retrieval and a regular supportive periodontal care program) for successful of GTR in class II furcations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this split-mouth study was to evaluate the clinical response of enamel matrix proteins (EMPs, Emdogain Gel in intra-osseous defects with or without a combined application of a tetracycline-coated expanded polytetrafluoroethylene barrier membrane (e-PTFE, Gore-Tex). METHODS Twelve pairs of intra-osseous periodontal defects in 11 patients received the application of EMPs on the exposed root surface (EMP). One of the two defects received randomly, as an adjunct to EMP treatment, a tetracycline-coated e-PTFE membrane (MEMP). At baseline, 6- and 12-month probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL) and probing bone level (PBL) were measured. RESULTS After 12 months, the EMP defects showed a significant mean PPD reduction of 2.86+/-0.75 mm, a mean gain in CAL of 1.28+/-2.04 mm, a mean PBL gain of 1.63+/-1.21 mm and a mean increase of recession (REC) of 1.56+/-2.30 mm. The MEMP defects showed a significant mean PPD reduction of 3.02+/-1.55 mm, a mean gain in CAL of 1.65+/-1.29 mm, a mean PBL gain of 1.58+/-1.92 mm and a mean increase of REC of 1.38+/-1.63 mm. Except for significantly more post-operative discomfort at the MEMP sites, no significant differences were found between EMP and MEMP defects. CONCLUSION Within the limits of this study, it is concluded that in the treatment of intra-osseous defects with EMP, the adjunctive use of a tetracycline-coated e-PTFE membrane failed to show more gain of CAL and PBL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Medical-grade calcium sulfate (CS) is a biocompatible, bioabsorbable, and clinically versatile ceramic for use in bone repair. This study compared the clinical efficacy of a combination of calcium sulfate dihydrate, as a binder and barrier, and demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) to polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) and DFDBA for the treatment of human periodontal defects. METHODS Two intrabony defects were compared in each of 19 patients with chronic periodontitis. After initial preparation, full-thickness mucoperiosteal flaps were elevated, osseous defects debrided, and the roots prepared (ultrasonic, hand curets, and tetracycline conditioning). Defects were randomly treated with either a combination graft of DFDBA with CS (4:1) covered by a CS barrier or with DFDBA and fitted with an ePTFE barrier. Flaps were coronally positioned to obtain primary closure. Clinical soft tissue measurements were recorded at 6 months, and all study sites were surgically reentered for evaluation. RESULTS The mean presurgical measurements for defects randomized to the CS and ePTFE treatments, respectively, were similar for attachment level (AL; 6.2 +/- 1.8 mm and 6.1 +/- 1.7 mm), probing depth (PD; 6.3 +/- 1.1 mm and 6.2 +/- 1.1 mm), and gingival recession (0.1 +/- 1.9 mm and 0.2 +/- 1.4 mm). Defects treated with CS or ePTFE demonstrated statistically significant (P < or = 0.0001) reductions in mean PD (2.7 +/- 1.4 mm and 3.4 +/- 1.3 mm, respectively) and gains in mean AL (1.8 +/- 1.5 mm and 1.7 +/- 1.4 mm, respectively). Recession increased by 0.8 +/- 1.4 mm at CS sites and 1.6 +/- 1.7 mm at ePTFE-treated sites (P < or = 0.05). Pretreatment mean defect depths were 4.1 +/- 1.0 mm and 3.7 +/- 1.0 mm for CS and ePTFE sites, respectively. Reentry evaluations revealed a mean defect fill of 2.7 +/- 1.5 mm and 2.5 +/- 0.9 mm for the CS and ePTFE sites, respectively, with a corresponding mean defect resolution of 80.3 +/- 18.7% and 76.7 +/- 18.5%. The CS and ePTFE sites did not differ significantly in mean defect fill or defect resolution. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study indicate that calcium sulfate, when used as a binder and barrier in combination with DFDBA, supports significant clinical improvement in intrabony defects, as evidenced by reductions in probing depth, gains in clinical attachment level, and defect fill and resolution. Calcium sulfate represents an important alternative to non-resorbable ePTFE barriers in combination with DFDBA for the treatment of intrabony defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several bioabsorbable collagen membranes are either currently available or under investigation for use in guided tissue regeneration (GTR) procedures. The aim of this 12-month reentry study was to evaluate a diphenylphosphorylazide (DPPA)-cross-linked bovine type I collagen membrane in the healing of mandibular Class II furcation defects. The DPPA technique prevents the inclusion of foreign cytotoxic cross-linking substances in the reticulated molecules, thus providing a more biocompatible product. METHODS Forty non-smoking periodontally compromised adult subjects volunteered for this study, and one defect was randomly selected in each patient. At baseline, plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing depth (PD), gingival margin location (GML), clinical attachment level (CAL), and width of the attached gingiva (AG) were measured. Intrasurgical hard tissue measurements consisted of the vertical open probing attachment level (V-OPAL) and horizontal open probing attachment level (H-OPAL), as well as furcation entrance width (FW) and height (FH) and subclassification of defects according to vertical bone loss. All soft tissue measurements were repeated 12 months after membrane placement using conservative flap reentry surgeries; hard tissue parameters were also assessed at this time. RESULTS DPPA-cross-linked collagen membranes demonstrated good handling characteristics, and no postoperative adverse tissue reactions or clinically detectable localized allergic responses were observed. GI and PI remained low during the entire study period. When the one year reentry values were compared to the baseline measurements, a significant reduction in PD (1.9 +/- 1.4), FW (2.1 +/- 1.7), FH (2.9 +/- 1.6), and gain in CAL (1.7 +/- 1.5), V-OPAL (2.1 +/- 1.9), and H-OPAL (4.7 +/- 1.4) were observed (P < or = 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in GML or AG. Hard tissue improvements resulted in the complete closure of 30% (12) of the defects, and transformation of 67.5% (27) of the defects to Class I, while one defect remained a Class II (2.5%). CONCLUSIONS Based on this 12-month clinical reentry study, a DPPA-cross-linked collagen membrane could be beneficial in GTR treatment of Class II mandibular furcation involvements, both in terms of soft and hard tissue improvements.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to evaluate the periapical and periodontal healing of apicomarginal defects 12 months after periradicular surgery and guided tissue regeneration in a series of consecutively treated patients. STUDY DESIGN Patients with apicomarginal defects who were referred for periradicular surgery were included. Apicomarginal defects were grafted with Bio-Oss bone mineral and covered with a Bio-Gide membrane. Periodontal probing depths (PPDs) and relative attachment levels were measured preoperatively and 12 months postoperatively with a manual force-controlled probe. Periapical healing was assessed clinically and radiographically. RESULTS Of the 23 defects in 22 patients for whom follow-up data were available, 19 were considered clinically and radiographically successful, 2 were doubtful, and 2 were failures. Overall, the baseline median PPD decreased from 9.0 mm to 3.0 mm, corresponding to a median relative attachment level gain of 2.8 mm. In the case of periodontic-endodontic lesions, the median baseline PPD decreased from 9.8 mm to 4.0 mm, corresponding to a median relative attachment level gain of 4.2 mm. Defects that involved a proximal root surface had a significantly higher residual PPD than did defects not involving a proximal root surface. CONCLUSIONS Guided tissue regeneration treatment of apicomarginal defects yields good results in terms of periapical and periodontal healing after 12 months and should be considered as an adjunct to periradicular surgery in such cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontal regeneration success may be limited by placing bone grafts and membranes in infected sites. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that adjunctive subgingival administration of chlorhexidine gelatin bioresorbable chips enhances bone gain when used in conjunction with guided tissue regeneration. METHODS This was a single center, blinded, 2-arm parallel design study of 44 subjects with one or more sites with probing depth and clinical attachment loss > or = 5 mm following initial therapy and radiographic evidence of bone loss. The patients were randomly assigned to receive either chlorhexidine (CHX) chip or sham chip placement one week prior to regenerative therapy that included graft placement and site coverage with guided tissue membranes. Patients also received CHX or sham chip placement, per their randomization, adjunctively to scaling and root planing or maintenance procedures. Periodontal examinations were completed at baseline (8 weeks prior to surgery); 1 week prior to surgery; and at 3, 6, and 9 months postsurgery. The major outcomes for the study were changes in bone height and bone mass as measured from standardized radiographs used for quantitative digital subtraction radiography over the 11-month study period. RESULTS Subjects receiving sham chip placement gained a mean bone height of 1.49 +/- 0.22 mm, while patients receiving the CHX chips gained significantly more bone height (3.54 +/- 0.45 mm; P<0.001). Similarly, subjects receiving CHX chips as an adjunct gained significantly more bone mass (5.57 +/- 0.69 mg; P<0.001) than the standard therapy (2.59 +/- 0.34 mg). CONCLUSIONS These pilot results indicate that locally delivered, controlled-release antimicrobial treatment may improve the amount of bone gain during guided tissue regeneration procedures. These data support the evidence that infection control is an important variable in successful regeneration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine the relative impact of various predictors responsible for the variability in treatment outcome after guided tissue regeneration (GTR) in intraosseous periodontal defects. PATIENTS AND METHODS 30 patients with chronic periodontitis and at least one intraosseous periodontal lesion (> or =4 mm) were enrolled. Following full-mouth scaling, GTR using polylactic acid membranes was performed at one site in each patient. Main periodontal pathogens, defect morphology, membrane exposure and smoking habit were assessed as predictor variables. Alveolar bone level change served as the primary outcome variable in a multiple regression analysis. RESULTS After 12 months, the 29 patients completing the study showed alveolar bone changes ranging from 4 mm bone gain to 1 mm bone loss (mean: 1.6+/-0.4 mm gain). Active smoking (beta-weight:-0.49, P=0.003) and persistence of subgingival infection with P. gingivalis (P.g.) (beta-weight:-0.25, P=0.11) were associated with poor treatment outcome. Deep initial intraosseous defects (beta-weight: 0.32, P=0.045) were associated with favorable treatment outcome, and membrane exposure had no impact on bone gain. CONCLUSION Active smoking was the strongest predictor variable negatively affecting alveolar bone gain following GTR in the treatment of periodontal defects. It was followed by a positive influence of a deeper intraosseous defect and by a negative effect by persistent subgingival infection of P. gingivalis. The relative impact of these factors may be useful in assessing the prognosis of GTR in intraosseous periodontal defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periopathogens and cariogenic species survive more than 48 hours on toothbrushes even under dry storage. This study examined a decontamination of toothbrushes by means of the bactericidal effect of different toothpastes or a special coating of the tufts. METHODS Eight untreated periodontitis patients were professionally brushed, using a new toothbrush per quadrant and 3 different toothpastes containing either amine/stannous fluoride (AmF/SnF2), amine fluoride (AmF), or a mild surfactant as major antibacterial component (excipient), or no paste (C). The brushes were rinsed and stored dry at room temperature. At different time intervals, 4 tufts per toothbrush were processed for selective and non-selective culturing procedures. The protocol was repeated comparing AmF/SnF2 and C with 2 toothbrushes with coated tufts (coat1 and coat2). RESULTS At baseline, C brushes (n = 16) harbored 10(7), 10(8), and 10(6) colony forming units (CFU) of aerobic, anaerobic, and black pigmented species, respectively. After 24 hours 10(6) CFU of aerobic and anaerobic species could still be cultured from 14 of the 16 brushes. Black-pigmented species remained detectable up to 4 hours; detection frequencies for Fusobacterium nucleatum and Streptococcus mutans at 24 hours were 5/16. With AmF/SnF2 and AmF toothpaste the number of adhering bacteria was already 2 log lower at baseline (P<0.05), but not for the excipient (0.5 log, P = 0.7). With AmF/SnF2 no vital species could be detected after 8 hours. AmF reduced the bacterial survival rate significantly more than the excipient, but less than AmF/SnF2 (P<0.05). The bactericidal effect of coat1 and coat2 was negligible when compared to C (P>0.20), and clearly inferior to the AmF/SnF2 paste (P<0.0001). After 24 hours these brushes still harbored >10(5) CFU. CONCLUSIONS Toothpastes can significantly reduce contamination of toothbrushes, but their bactericidal activity is dependent on their composition. Coated tufts failed to limit the bacterial contamination.

Abstract
AIM The comparison of the clinical, radiographic, and microbiological healing results in deep intrabony defects following GTR therapy with two different bioresorbable membranes in a prospective split-mouth design. MATERIAL AND METHODS 31 pairs of contralateral intrabony defects were randomly treated with either an experimental Polydioxanon (PDS) membrane or a Polylactic acid (PLA) matrix barrier. After 6, 12 and 24 months, healing results were assessed using clinical examinations (REC, PPD, CAL, vertical relative attachment gain V-rAG), quantitative digital subtraction radiography (amount and area of bone density changes), and microbiological analysis. RESULTS Postoperative membrane exposures occurred in 14 PDS and 2 PLA treated sites. 6, 12 and 24 months p.o., both membranes provided a significant gain in CAL [median values: 6 months (PDS vs. PLA: 3.0 vs. 3.0 mm); 12 and 24 months (PDS vs. PLA: 4.0 vs. 4.0 mm)], which corresponded to a V-rAG of 57.1% (PDS) vs. 62.5% (PLA) after 24 months. PDS and PLA treated sites revealed significant bone density gain 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery. 38.8% (PDS) vs. 41.8% (PLA) of the initial defect areas showed bone density gain. While the gain in bone density was significantly greater in PDS than in PLA sites, neither CAL gain nor the area of bone density changes revealed significant differences. Microbiological culture revealed similar bacterial loads in PDS and PLA sites during the first 12 months. CONCLUSION This 24-month study indicates that the PDS and PLA membranes can provide similar favorable regeneration results in deep intrabony periodontal defects, although considerably more postoperative membrane exposures have to be expected in PDS treated sites.

Abstract
Self-performed plaque removal using manual or powered toothbrushes and interdental cleaning devices is improved in subjects that have received oral hygiene instructions. Personal oral hygiene coupled with regular professional supragingival debridement may further improve the level of plaque control but still fails to achieve a completely plaque-free dentition. Both patient-performed and professional supragingival plaque removal has an effect on subgingival microbiota that is limited to the marginal 3 mm of the periodontal pocket. At sites with 4 mm or more of probing depth, only subgingival scaling leads to a significant reduction of the bacterial load. The subgingival microflora can be further reduced by pocket elimination surgery. Due to the sequence of bacterial recolonization that occurs following mechanical debridement, the level of periodontal pathogens such as B. forsythus, P. gingivalis and T. denticola may be reduced for several months. Mechanical debridement also influences the patient's immune system response, resulting in antibody titers and avidity against periodontal pathogens. As a basis for the restoration and maintenance of periodontal health, repeated subgingival debridement, as performed in supportive periodontal therapy, can reduce the number and proportions of periodontopathogenic bacteria in subgingival plaque. However, intensive subgingival scaling and root planing should be avoided in sites that probe less than 3 mm, as this is likely to traumatize the periodontium and cause attachment loss.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This commentary compares the abilities of full-mouth disinfection (FDIS), full-mouth root planing (FRP), and partial-mouth disinfection (PDIS) to improve periodontal health. FDIS consists of 4 quadrants of root planing completed within 24 hours with adjunctive chlorhexidine therapies (e.g., rinsing, subgingival irrigation, tongue brushing). FRP denotes 4 quadrants of root planing performed within 24 hours, and PDIS refers to root planing individual quadrants of the dentition, spaced 2 weeks apart. A basic premise of administering full-mouth therapy (FDIS or FRP) is to eliminate or reduce bacterial reservoirs within the oral cavity that could inhibit optimal healing of treated sites or cause periodontal disease initiation or progression. METHODS Controlled clinical trials that compared the abilities of PDIS and full-mouth root planing with and without adjunctive chlorhexidine chemotherapy to alter periodontal status were reviewed. RESULTS Several studies conducted at one treatment center indicated that FDIS and FRP attained greater therapeutic improvements than PDIS with respect to decreasing probing depths (PD), gaining clinical attachment (CAL), diminishing bleeding upon probing, and reducing the subgingival microflora. However, the magnitude of PD reductions and gains of clinical attachment must be carefully interpreted, because initial PD measurements were usually determined after scaling and root planing, which may have caused the results to be overstated. Furthermore, in studies that addressed the utility of FDIS, it was not possible to determine if benefits induced beyond PDIS were due to FRP or administration of multifaceted intraoral chlorhexidine treatments ora combination of both therapies. One investigation that had protocol limitations indicated that similar results were attained by FRP with and without adjunctive chemotherapy. In contrast, recent studies from 2 other treatment centers indicated that there were no significant differences when the efficacy of quadrant-by-quadrant root planing was compared to FRP or FDIS with regard to PD reduction, gains of clinical attachment, and impact on the magnitude and quality of the immune response. POSSIBLE CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Conceptually, full-mouth therapy (FRP or FDIS) could reduce the number of patient visits and facilitate more efficient use of treatment time. In addition, there appears to be no major adverse reactions to full-mouth root planing with or without adjunctive chemotherapy. However, small study populations and non-corroborating data from different treatment centers indicate that additional randomized clinical trials are needed to determine if full-mouth therapy provides clinically relevant improvements beyond PDIS.

Abstract
Dental implant surgery produces bone debris that can be used in the "simultaneous augmentation" technique. Although this debris is contaminated with oral bacteria, a stringent aspiration protocol has been shown to reduce the levels of contamination. Chlorhexidine mouthrinse is a well-proven antibacterial rinse that has been shown to reduce infectious complications associated with dental implants. This study examined the effect of pre-operative rinsing with a 0.1% chlorhexidine digluconate mouthrinse on the bacterial contaminants present in collected bone debris bone (CBD). Twenty partially edentate patients were randomly allocated into equal groups and underwent bone collection using the Frios Bone Collector (FBC) during the insertion of two dental implants. In group T a pre-operative chlorhexidine rinse was used, whilst in group C sterile water was used. For both groups, a stringent bone collection protocol was used. Bone samples were immediately transported for microbial analysis. Colonial and microscopic morphology, gaseous requirements and identification kits were utilised for identification of the isolated microbes. Thirty-nine species were identified including a number associated with disease, in particular Actinomyces odontolyticus, Clostridium bifermentans, Prevotella intermedia, and Propionibacterium propionicum. Samples from group T (chlorhexidine mouthrinse) yielded significantly fewer organisms (P < 0.001) than in group C (sterile water mouthrinse). Gram-positive cocci dominated the isolates from both groups. It is concluded that if bone debris is to be used for the purpose of immediate simultaneous augmentation, a preoperative chlorhexidine mouthrinse should be utilised in conjunction with a stringent aspiration protocol to reduce further the bacterial contamination of CBD.

Abstract
The use of oral implants in the rehabilitation of partially and fully edentulous patients is widely accepted even though failures do occur. The chance for implants to integrate can for example be jeopardised by the intra-oral presence of bacteria and concomitant inflammatory reactions. The longevity of osseointegrated implants can be compromised by occlusal overload and/or plaque-induced peri-implantitis, depending on the implant geometry and surface characteristics. Animal studies, cross-sectional and longitudinal observations in man, as well as association studies indicate that peri-implantitis is characterised by a microbiota comparable to that of periodontitis (high proportion of anaerobic Gram-negative rods, motile organisms and spirochetes), but this does not necessarily prove a causal relationship. However, in order to prevent such a bacterial shift, the following measures can be considered: periodontal health in the remaining dentition (to prevent bacterial translocation), the avoidance of deepened peri-implant pockets, and the use of a relatively smooth abutment and implant surface. Finally, periodontitis enhancing factors such as smoking and poor oral hygiene also increase the risk for peri-implantitis. Whether the susceptibility for periodontitis is related to that for peri-implantitis may vary according to the implant type and especially its surface topography.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although periodontitis has a multi-factorial aetiology, the success of its therapy mainly focuses on the eradication/reduction of the exogenous/endogenous periodontopathogens. Most of the species colonise several niches within the oral cavity (e.g. the mucosae, the tongue, the saliva, the periodontal pockets and all intra-oral hard surfaces) and even in the oro-pharyngeal area (e.g., the sinus and the tonsils). METHODS This review article discusses the intra-oral transmission of periodontopathogens between these niches and analyses clinical studies that support the idea and importance of such an intra-oral translocation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Based on the literature, the oro-pharyngeal area should indeed be considered as a microbiological entity. Because untreated pockets jeopardise the healing of recently instrumented sites, the treatment of periodontitis should involve "a one stage approach" of all pathologic pockets (1-stage full-mouth disinfection) or should at least consider the use of antiseptics during the intervals between consecutive instrumentations, in order to prevent a microbial translocation of periodontopathogens during the healing period. For the same reason, regeneration procedures or the local application of antibiotics should be postponed until a maximal improvement has been obtained in the remaining dentition. This more global approach offers significant additional clinical and microbiological benefits.
