SENSORS & DIAGNOSTICS 2024; 3:1119-1134. [PMID: 39007012 PMCID: PMC11238172 DOI: 10.1039/d3sd00317e] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
Point of care (POC) diagnostic devices provide a method for rapid accurate identification of disease through analysis of biologically relevant substances. This review focuses on the utility of POC testing for early detection of periodontitis, a critical factor in treating the disease. Accessing the oral cavity for biological sampling is less invasive when compared to other internal test sites, and oral fluids contain biomarkers indicative of periodontitis. The ease of access makes the mouth an excellent target location for the development of POC devices. In this review, accepted standards in industry by which these devices must adhere, provided by the World Health Organization such as REASSURED and CLIA, are discussed. An overview is provided for many periodontal biomarkers currently being investigated as a means of predicting periodontal disease and its progression. POC devices currently being investigated for the identification and monitoring of periodontal disease such as paper-based and lab-on-a-chip based devices are outlined. Limitations of current POC devices on the market are provided and future directions in leveraging biomarkers as an adjunctive method for oral diagnosis along with AI-based analysis systems are discussed. Here, we present the ESSENCE sensor platform, which combines a porous non-planar electrode with enhanced shear flow to achieve unprecedented sensitivity and selectivity. The combination of the ESENCE chip with an automated platform allows us to meet the WHO's ASSURED criteria. This platform promises to be an exciting POC candidate for early detection of periodontitis.

Clin Oral Investig 2023; 28:27. [PMID: 38147192 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-023-05443-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/17/2023] [Indexed: 12/27/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Recently, matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) has been used to diagnose periodontal disease in a point-of-care (POC) test in order to save time and cost relative to the traditional diagnostic workflow. This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance of INCLIX TRF MMP-8, a POC testing device for periodontitis using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values. MATERIALS AND METHODS Full-mouth periodontal examination and radiographic analysis were used for evaluating periodontal condition based on the 2018 classification of periodontal disease. A dichotomous diagnosis of clinical periodontal condition was performed using the POC device. The relationships among periodontal condition and the concentration of MMP-8, tooth loss (TL), gingival index (GI), plaque index (PI), and alveolar bone loss (ABL) were assessed by the Spearman rank correlations (rs). RESULTS In all, 108 cases of non-periodontitis (NP) and 191 cases of periodontitis (P), including 38 cases of periodontitis stage I, 42 cases of periodontitis stage II, 99 cases of periodontitis stage III, and 11 cases of periodontitis stage IV, were enrolled in this study. Diagnostic accuracy in assessing periodontal condition with the POC device improved when it was used with participants aged ≥ 40 years. There were weak positive correlations between periodontal condition and MMP-8 and between periodontal condition and GI (rs2 = 0.1124 and rs2 = 0.0906, respectively), whereas a strong positive correlation between periodontal condition and alveolar bone loss (rs2 = 0.6877) was observed. CONCLUSION The POC device investigated in this study is a potential tool to distinguish between NP and P in individuals ≥ 40 years of age.

Leppilahti JM, Tervahartiala T, Kautiainen H, Räisänen I, Ahonen M, Uitto V, Sorsa T, Mäntylä P. Correlations between different protein species of oral rinse MMP-8 and patient-related factors. Clin Exp Dent Res 2023; 9:1021-1033. [PMID: 37877535 PMCID: PMC10728547 DOI: 10.1002/cre2.803] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/26/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to examine correlations between different oral rinse matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8 protein species in western blot (WB) analysis, quantitative MMP-8 measurements, and patient-related factors. Elevated activated MMP-8 (aMMP-8) associate with periodontitis and a diagnostic point-of-care technology has been developed based on aMMP-8. In WB, different MMP-8 protein species can be analyzed. Relative abundancy of fragmented 20-25 kDa forms in WB has been associated with and reflects MMP-8 activation and related fragmentation and elevated quantitative aMMP-8 measurements. MATERIAL AND METHODS A random sample of 192 participants from a periodontal disease screening study was used for this study. Oral rinse samples for biomarker analyses were collected before clinical periodontal examinations. aMMP-8 immunofluorometric (IFMA) and WB analysis (utilizing the same monoclonal antibody, 8708), polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) elastase activity test and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMP)-1 ELISA levels were performed from the oral rinse samples. Distinct MMP-8 protein species were differentiated in the WB analysis. Principal component (PC) analysis was conducted to explore correlation patterns between the different species. Adjusted correlation analysis between the extracted PCs of WB and aMMP-8 IFMA levels and multilevel regression analysis were conducted to explore if the other periodontal disease-related biomarkers and clinical surrogate measures and patient-related factors are co-variating with the extracted components. RESULTS Distinct correlation patterns between the MMP-8 protein species were observed. The first four PCs explained 89% of the whole variance in PC analysis. Statistically significant correlation (p < 0.05) were observed as follows: PC1 positively with 21 kDa (r = .69) and 25 kDa fragments (r = .55) and negatively with 150 kDa complexes (r = -.46). PC2 correlated with 45 (r = .70) and 55 kDa (r = .65) activated forms, PC3 with 70-80 kDa latent proforms (r = .63) and 90-100 kDa complexes (r = .67), and PC4 with 35 kDa fragments (r = .81). There were significant correlations between quantitative (IFMA) aMMP-8 measurements and PC1 (p < 0.001), PC2 (<0.05) and PC3 (<0.05) but not with PC4. In multilevel regression models age, PMN elastase activity, TIMP-1 levels, and a number of 4-5 mm periodontal pockets were associated with PC1, nonsmoking with PC2, age and PMN elastase activity with PC3, and age and smoking with PC4. CONCLUSIONS Relative abundancy of fragmented 21-25 kDa protein species was correlated with the quantitative aMMP-8 (IFMA) measurements, which is in line with previous results. Different patient-related factors (smoking, age, proteolytic activity) may modify the formation of different MMP-8 protein species in oral rinse samples and may cause variability in quantitative aMMP-8 measurement.

Dentists' perceptions and usability testing of the implant disease risk assessment IDRA, a tool for preventing peri‑implant disease: A qualitative study. J Dent 2023; 136:104630. [PMID: 37488043 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2023.104630] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/26/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION we aimed to explore dentists' perceptions toward the implementation of a dental informatics risk assessment tool which estimates the risk for a patient to develop peri‑implantitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS the Implant Disease Risk Assessment Tool (IDRA) was presented to a convenience sample of seven dentists working in a university clinic, whom were asked to use IDRA with the information of three clinical cases whilst thinking aloud and then fill the System Usability Scale (SUS). A semi-structured interview technique was used with audio record to allow free expression of participants' perceptions related to the IDRA. The interviews information was categorized and analyzed by the authors. RESULTS to our knowledge, this is the first study conducted to develop a qualitative usability test of IDRA, evaluating the effectiveness, efficiency, and users' satisfaction. There were more variations in responses the greater the degree of complexity of the clinical case. Generally, the participants classified the tool as good, getting usability values of 77,2 (SD 19,8) and learnability 73,2 (SD 24,5). CONCLUSION four additional factors should be considered to improve IDRA tool: 1) considering the relation between contour angle and peri-implant tissue height; 2) automatic periodontal classification in the IDRA tool after completing the periodontogram in the clinical software; 3) presentation of a flowchart to assist therapeutic decisions alongside the final score defined by the IDRA tool; 4) integrating of precision tests such as Implantsafe® DR… (dentognostics gmbh, Jena) and Oralyzer®(dentognostics gmbh, Jena). CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE etiology and pathogenesis of peri‑implant diseases is multifactorial. These tools must follow a natural integration to be easily applied in a clinical setting. It is important to study their usability from the clinicians' point of view, evaluating the effectiveness, efficiency, and users' satisfaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The link between diabetes and periodontitis is bi-directional: high glucose levels increase the risk of periodontitis and elevated oral fluid aMMP-8 as well as diabetic development while untreated periodontitis worsens glycaemic control. METHODS Type-2 patients (N = 161) underwent an aMMP-8 Point-of-Care Test (POCT) at diabetes clinics. If the test was positive, the patient was sent to an oral health care clinic and oral health examination, health-promoting as well as necessary treatment procedures were carried out. Only 41 patients underwent full clinical evaluations. At the end of the treatment, an aMMP-8 POCT (B) was performed and if the test was positive, the treatment was continued and a new test (C) was performed, aiming for test negativity. The glycated haemoglobin (GHbA1c) test was performed approximately 6 months from the original appointment. RESULTS GHbA1c concentrations did not decrease during the follow-up. The concentrations of aMMP-8 assessed by POCT, and clinical parameters decreased. Changes in GHbA1c and aMMP-8 levels assessed by POCT during the treatment correlated positively with each other (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION aMMP-8 POCT proved its reliability, and that its use is beneficial in the diabetes clinic, it enables identifying patients with periodontal findings reliably and guides them directly to an oral health clinic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyse the correspondence between aMMP-8 PoC test results and the clinical endpoints of non-surgical periodontal treatment in stage III/IV periodontitis. BACKGROUND The diagnostic success of the active-matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) point-of-care (PoC) test has been demonstrated in various studies, but the evidence of its accuracy following periodontal treatment is limited. MATERIALS AND METHODS Altogether 42 stage III/IV grade C periodontitis patients were included in this prospective diagnostic study. Clinical periodontal indices were recorded, aMMP-8 PoC test was applied and mouthrinse was collected before and at 6, 12 and 24 weeks after non-surgical periodontal treatment. Quantitative aMMP-8 levels were determined with immunofluorometric assay (IFMA) for the verification of the PoC test results. The accuracy of the aMMP-8 PoC test was assessed using previously established clinical endpoints as references. RESULTS Sensitivity and specificity of aMMP-8 PoC test to indicate clinical endpoints were ranged as follows: Sensitivity 71.4% at baseline, 39.3%-42.4% at week 6, 28.6%-32.4% at week 12 and 35.3%-42.9% at week 24; specificity 64.3%-80% at week 6, 40%-57.1% at week 12 and 56%-64.3% at week 24. CONCLUSIONS The accuracy of aMMP-8 PoC test in identifying clinical endpoints after non-surgical periodontal treatment is reduced in relation to baseline. Individual healing patterns of each diseased pocket eventually limit the accuracy of the dichotomous aMMP-8 oral rinse test during the post-treatment period.

Effects of a 2-Year Early Childhood Vitamin D3 Intervention on Tooth Enamel and Oral Health at Age 6-7 Years. Horm Res Paediatr 2022; 96:385-394. [PMID: 36473453 DOI: 10.1159/000528536] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2022] [Accepted: 11/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of the study was to compare the effects of a 30 µg/day versus 10 µg/day vitamin D supplementation, given during the two first years of life, on oral health at the age of six to 7 years. METHODS In 2013-2016, we conducted a randomized, double-blinded, clinical trial from age 2 weeks to 2 years of daily vitamin D3 supplementation (10 vs. 30 µg), including 975 healthy infants. For the present follow-up study at age 6-7 years, a sample of 123 children underwent oral examination by investigators blinded to the intervention group. Tooth enamel defect and caries findings, oral rinse active matrix metalloproteinase-8 levels, and tooth eruption were recorded. The intervention groups were compared with χ2 and Mann-Whitney U tests. Associations of the oral health outcomes were evaluated with correlation analysis and logistic regression. RESULTS Of the children (median age 7.4 years, 51% boys), 56% belonged to the 30 µg intervention group. Developmental defect of enamel (DDE) was found in 39% of the children in the 10 µg intervention group and in 53% of the 30 µg group (p = 0.104). In total, 94% of children were vitamin D sufficient (25[OH]D ≥50 nmol/L) and 88% had caries-free teeth. No associations were found between vitamin D intervention group in infancy and oral health or the presence of DDE. CONCLUSION Daily supplementation with 10 µg vitamin D3 in the Northern Hemisphere seems adequate in healthy children younger than 2 years in ensuring good oral health at early school age.

Abstract
Objectives The aim of this study was to validate an active matrix metalloproteinase (MMP‐8) point‐of‐care diagnostic tool in COVID‐19 patients with periodontal disease. Subjects, Materials, and Methods Seventy‐two COVID‐19‐positive and 30 COVID‐19‐negative subjects were enrolled in the study. Demographic data were recorded, periodontal examination carried out, and chairside tests run for evaluating the expression of active MMP‐8 (aMMP‐8) in the site with maximum periodontal breakdown via gingival crevicular fluid sampling as well as via a mouth rinse‐based kit for general disease activity. In COVID‐19‐positive patients, the kits were run again once the patients turned COVID‐19 negative. Results The overall (n = 102) sensitivity/specificity of the mouthrinse‐based kits to detect periodontal disease was 79.41%/36.76% and that of site‐specific kits was 64.71%/55.88% while adjusting for age, gender, and smoking status increased the sensitivity and specificity (82.35%/76.47% and 73.53%/88.24, respectively). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis for the adjusted model revealed very good area under the ROC curve 0.746–0.869 (p < .001) and 0.740–0.872 (p < .001) (the aMMP‐8 mouth rinse and site‐specific kits, respectively). No statistically significant difference was observed in the distribution of results of aMMP‐8 mouth rinse test (p = .302) and aMMP‐8 site‐specific test (p = .189) once the subjects recovered from COVID‐19. Conclusions The findings of the present study support the aMMP‐8 point‐of‐care testing (PoCT) kits as screening tools for periodontitis in COVID‐19 patients. The overall screening accuracy can be further increased by utilizing adjunctively risk factors of periodontitis. The reported noninvasive, user‐friendly, and objective PoCT diagnostic methodology may provide a way of stratifying risk groups, deciding upon referrals, and in the institution of diligent oral hygiene regimens.

[PMID: 35575900 DOI: 10.1111/jre.12999] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2022] [Revised: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 04/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Assessment of biomarkers, specifically active matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8), in saliva/oral rinses is a promising diagnostic approach for periodontal health and disease. Different oral fluids have specific advantages and limitations. This study investigates the effect of sampling different fluids on the accuracy of an aMMP-8 point of care test (POCT). METHODS Unstimulated whole saliva, a first, and a second oral rinse were sequentially taken from 95 consecutive adults. aMMP-8 was quantitatively determined with a lateral flow immunoassay (index test). A full-mouth periodontal examination was used to establish a diagnosis according to the 2017 World Workshop classification of periodontal diseases (reference standard). Diagnostic measures of the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), sensitivity, and specificity were assessed and compared. RESULTS In all oral fluid samples, periodontitis patients (N = 61) had significantly elevated aMMP-8 levels and increased test positivity rates compared with subjects with periodontal health or gingivitis (N = 34). The intra-individual comparison showed that aMMP-8 levels were significantly higher in 1st oral rinse compared with other samples (1st oral rinse > saliva = 2nd oral rinse, p = .007). The aMMP-8 test using 1st oral rinse exhibited the best accuracy for detecting periodontitis with a sensitivity of 80.3%, a specificity of 67.8% and an AUROC of 0.740. CONCLUSIONS A 30-second oral rinse with water omitting the prerinse provided the best accuracy to discriminate periodontal health and disease with an aMMP-8 POCT. This regimen seems promising for further studies in large representative populations to verify the current findings.

Abstract
Outcome expectations of direct pulp capping in carious teeth are obscured by a clinically unknown infiltration and breakdown of the dental pulp tissue. Histologic studies showed that this soft tissue breakdown is related to the innate immune system. We hypothesized 1) that a neutrophil biomarker could predict the outcome of direct pulp capping and 2) that using sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) as a lavage solution to remove necrotized infected pulp tissue could improve it. In this randomized trial in mature posterior teeth causing no or mild discomfort with carious pulpal exposures, pulpal fluid was collected to assess neutrophil gelatinase (matrix metalloproteinase 9 [MMP-9]) per total protein (TP) levels as a predictive local biomarker. Subsequently, the dentin-pulp wound was randomly washed with a 2.5% NaOCl or a physiologic saline solution (1:1 allocation), capped with mineral trioxide aggregate, and the tooth was immediately restored with a resin-based composite restoration. Ninety-six patients were included, and 84 individuals could be followed up to treatment failure or clinically confirmed pulp survival after a minimum of 1 y. The entire data were fitted to a Cox proportional hazards model to assess the influence of the observational variables MMP-9/TP and discomfort with the randomized lavage treatment on pulp survival. The Kaplan-Meier pulp survival rates after 1 y were 55% for saline and 89% for NaOCl lavage. The inflammatory state of the pulp tissue as reflected by MMP-9/TP levels and NaOCl lavage had a highly significant (P < 0.001 and P = 0.004, respectively) impact on pulp survival, while mild preoperative discomfort did not. In conclusion, MMP-9/TP showed great promise as a predictive local biomarker, and NaOCl lavage considerably improved the survival time of cariously exposed and directly capped pulps.

Abstract
The authors of this narrative review aimed to address various experimental methods and make recommendations for how research should move forward in the context of studying biomarkers in clinical Endodontic research. The approach adopted is exemplified using two prominent clinical problems, namely (a) the ‘reversible’ versus ‘irreversible’ pulpitis conundrum and (b) persistent idiopathic dentoalveolar pain (PIDAP). Pulpitis under deep caries or dentinal cracks is understood from a histological perspective, but clinical assessment tools to indicate irreversibly inflamed aspects of the dental pulp are elusive. PIDAP, on the other hand, is a diagnosis of exclusion; its pathophysiology is complex and not understood sufficiently to avoid unnecessary dental treatments. This review addresses how diagnostic biomarkers could further our understanding of those and other clinical problems, and how issues can be tackled from a methodological point of view. Hence, different methodological approaches to identify suitable diagnostic biomarker(s) or use known biomarkers are presented. The importance of asking a relevant research question, collecting the most suitable fluid and using the ideal collection vehicle for the research question under investigation is discussed based on the defined clinical problems.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Active matrix metalloproteinase (aMMP)-8 utilized in point-of-care testing (POCT) is regarded as a potential biomarker for periodontal and peri-implant diseases. Various host and microbial factors eventually influence the expression, degranulation, levels and activation of aMMP-8. The type of oral fluids (saliva, mouthrinse, gingival crevicular, and peri-implant sulcular fluids [GCF/PISF], respectively) affect the analysis. AREAS COVERED With this background, we aimed to review here the recent studies on practical, inexpensive, noninvasive and quantitative mouthrinse and GCF/PISF chair-side POCT lateral flow aMMP-8 immunoassays (PerioSafe and ImplantSafe/ORALyzer) and how they help to detect, predict, monitor the course, treatment and prevention of periodontitis and peri-implantitis. The correlations of aMMP-8 POCT to other independent and catalytic activity assays of MMP-8 are also addressed. EXPERT OPINION The mouthrinse aMMP-8 POCT can also detect prediabetes/diabetes and tissue destructive oral side-effects due to the head and neck cancers' radiotherapy. Chlorhexidine and doxycycline can inhibit collagenolytic human neutrophil and GCF aMMP-8. Furthermore, by a set of case-series we demonstrate the potential of mouthrinse aMMP-8 POCT to real-time/online detect periodontitis as a potential risk disease for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The clinical interdisciplinary utilization of aMMP-8 POCT requires additional oral, medical, and interdisciplinary studies.

Abstract
Objectives This case control study examined the associations of HLA antigens and periodontitis with the salivary level of active MMP‐8 (aMMP‐8). Materials and Methods A total of 202 subjects, registered as Swiss bone marrow donors, participated in the study. HLA‐A, ‐B, and ‐C types were determined by serology or PCR. Saliva samples were collected from subjects, followed by a periodontal examination. The salivary level of aMMP‐8 was determined with immunofluorometric assay. Results The mean salivary level of aMMP‐8 was directly comparable to the grade of periodontitis and increased from healthy to mild/moderate to severe (125.0 ± 132.1, 200.6 ± 170.2, 290.1 ± 202.3 ng/ml; p < 0.001 between each group, respectively). The only association between the HLA types and the salivary level of aMMP‐8 was observed in subjects with HLA‐A11. Subjects with healthy periodontium and HLA‐A11 had a lower level of aMMP‐8 (49.2 ± 32.5 ng/ml) compared with subjects without HLA‐A11 (123.6 ± 119.2; p = 0.048). Among subjects with periodontitis, a higher level of aMMP‐8 (394.2 ± 255.6 ng/ml) was observed in subjects with HLA‐A11 compared with subjects without HLA‐A11 (201.1 ± 146.1 ng/ml; p < 0.002). This finding was statistically significant also after adjusting for sex, age, smoking, tooth brushing and the number of medications (p < 0.05). Conclusions HLA‐A11 is associated with the salivary level of aMMP‐8 which contributes to the subject's immune and inflammatory response in periodontium.

Abstract
AIM To explore the feasibility of screening for periodontitis by measuring biomarkers, namely total proteolytic activity (TPA), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8, chitinase, lysozyme or their combination, in saliva, oral rinse and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF). MATERIAL AND METHODS Subjects were recruited among healthy/gingivitis individuals and untreated periodontitis patients in Academic Centre for Dentistry Amsterdam (ACTA). All participants donated samples of unstimulated whole saliva, oral rinse and GCF. The protein concentrations and MMP-8 levels were determined by ELISA. Enzymatic activities were measured using appropriate fluorogenic substrates. RESULTS In oral rinse samples, periodontitis patients (n = 19) exhibited significantly higher concentrations of MMP-8 and TPA than controls (n = 20). MMP-8 in combination with chitinase explained 88% of the variance and assigned a subject to control or periodontitis group, with best accuracy (87.2%) in oral rinse. CONCLUSIONS The combination of MMP-8 and chitinase in the current oral rinse procedure has the potential to discriminate periodontitis from periodontal health/gingivitis.

Abstract
Aim To assess the diagnostic utility of an oral rinse active matrix metalloproteinase‐8 (aMMP‐8) point‐of‐care test (POCT) for differentiating periodontal health, gingivitis, as well as different stages and grades of periodontitis. Materials & Methods The aMMP‐8 index test was undertaken in 408 consecutive adults, followed by a full‐mouth periodontal examination. The reference standard was the 2017 World Workshop classification of periodontal diseases. Sensitivity, specificity, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) were assessed. Results 68.6% of the participants were diagnosed with periodontitis, including Stages I (15.9%), II (15.9%), III (29.7%) and IV (7.1%). A positive aMMP‐8 POCT was associated with periodontitis after adjusting for age, gender, tobacco smoking and systemic diseases, while it was unable to differentiate among the stages/grades of periodontitis and between gingivitis/periodontal health. This test showed a sensitivity of 33.2% and a specificity of 93.0% for detecting periodontitis (threshold level >10 ng/ml). The levels of aMMP‐8 adjusted by the number of teeth present (aMMP‐8/NTP) performed better for periodontitis (sensitivity: 67.1%; specificity: 68.8%). Notably, aMMP‐8/NTP were strongly predictive for Stage IV periodontitis (threshold level =0.4312 ng/ml) (sensitivity: 89.7%; specificity: 73.6%; and AUROC: 0.856). The test performance greatly improved in combination with age and smoking, with a sensitivity of 82.5%, a specificity of 84.4%, and an AUROC of 0.883. Conclusion This aMMP‐8 POCT is able to detect periodontitis with better specificity than sensitivity across the spectrum of its severity. This test may be useful for periodontal screening in conjunction with subject characteristics and/or other sensitive screening tools. Further validation studies are needed.

Abstract
Periodontal diseases comprise a group of globally prevalent, chronic oral inflammatory conditions caused by microbial dysbiosis and the host immune response. These diseases specifically affect the tooth-supporting tissues (i.e., the periodontium) but are also known to contribute to systemic inflammation. If left untreated, periodontal diseases can ultimately progress to tooth loss, lead to compromised oral function, and negatively impact the overall quality of life. Therefore, it is important for the clinician to accurately diagnose these diseases both early and accurately chairside. Currently, the staging and grading of periodontal diseases are based on recording medical and dental histories, thorough oral examination, and multiple clinical and radiographic analyses of the periodontium. There have been numerous attempts to improve, automate, and digitize the collection of this information with varied success. Recent studies focused on the subgingival microbiome and the host immune response suggest there is an untapped potential for non-invasive oral sampling to assist clinicians in the chairside diagnosis and, potentially, prognosis. Here, we review the available toolkit available for diagnosing periodontal diseases, discuss commercially available options, and highlight the need for collaborative research initiatives and state-of-the-art technology development across disciplines to overcome the challenges of rapid periodontal disease diagnosis.

Evaluation of active matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) chair-side test as a diagnostic biomarker in the staging of periodontal diseases. Arch Oral Biol 2021; 124:104955. [PMID: 33556789 DOI: 10.1016/j.archoralbio.2020.104955] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2019] [Revised: 10/05/2020] [Accepted: 10/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE There is a need for a reliable complementary diagnostic tool that ideally helps to screen, differentiate sites, activities of and predict future periodontal tissue destruction. The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the screening and prevention potential of the chair-side/point-of-care (PoC) diagnostic test of salivary active matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) levels at different stages of periodontal disease and periodontal health. MATERIAL & METHODS 80 individuals were included in this study; 18 with periodontitis stage 3 (P-Stage III), 19 with periodontitis stage-4 (P-Stage IV), 21 with gingivitis, and 22 with clinically healthy periodontium (H). The aMMP-8 levels in GCF and saliva were analyzed by chairside point-of-care aMMP-8 lateral flow immunotest and also by a time-resolved immunofluorescence assay (IFMA). RESULTS The sensitivity of the chair-side/PoC test was 83.9 % while specificity was 79.2 %. The aMMP-8 IFMA levels in GCF were significantly higher in P-Stage IV group than P-Stage III, gingivitis and healthy groups (p = 0.01, p = 0.001, p = 0.00, respectively). Moreover, P-Stage III and gingivitis groups had significantly higher aMMP-8 IFMA levels than the healthy group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The aMMP-8 chair-side test showed promising results in its ability to recognize and predict the inflammatory status even at the very initial/early stages. aMMP-8 chair-side test could be a valuable adjunctive diagnostic and preventive tool to conventional clinical methods in detecting periodontal disease.

Low association between bleeding on probing propensity and the salivary aMMP-8 levels in adolescents with gingivitis and stage I periodontitis. J Periodontal Res 2020; 56:289-297.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Bleeding on probing (BOP) is a widely accepted measure used in periodontal diagnostics. Previous studies suggest that several factors can affect BOP propensity. The aim of this study was to investigate the relative impact of different local and modifying factors on BOP levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS The oral health of five hundred and forty-four adolescents (two birth cohorts) aged 15-17 years living in Kotka, Finland, was examined including periodontal probing depth, visible plaque index, root calculus, and BOP. Whole saliva samples were collected and measured for active matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) by time-resolved immunofluorometric assay (IFMA). RESULTS Bacterial plaque/calculus accumulation (oral hygiene) had a major influence on BOP levels. The relative impact was several times greater compared with the extent of periodontal pocketing, aMMP-8 levels, smoking, toothbrushing, or gender. Furthermore, BOP levels were significantly elevated among adolescents with poor oral hygiene than good oral hygiene even if adjusted for the extent of periodontal pocketing (P < .001). BOP levels could be low even if several ≥ 4 mm deep periodontal pockets existed. The difference in the extent of periodontal pocketing was not significant between the two birth cohorts of adolescents (P = .731). CONCLUSIONS BOP levels can be regarded as an important indicator of the extent of bacterial challenge and its adverse effects on the gingival inflammation. However, the level of oral hygiene may mask the association between the extent of gingival bleeding and the severity of the periodontal inflammatory condition. Thus, relying on BOP levels (below 10% or 20%) may provide insufficient information about the periodontal treatment need of an adolescent depending on his/her level of oral hygiene. Yet, more research is needed to confirm the results, also in adult populations.

Abstract
Severe periodontitis is ranked as the sixth most prevalent disease affecting humankind, with an estimated 740 million people affected worldwide. The diagnosis of periodontal diseases mainly relies upon assessment of conventional clinical parameters. However, these parameters reflect past, rather than current, clinical status or future disease progression and, likely, outcome of periodontal treatment. Specific and sensitive biomarkers for periodontal diseases have been examined widely to address these issues and some biomarkers have been translated as point-of-care (PoC) tests. The aim of this review was to provide an update on PoC tests for use in the diagnosis and management of periodontal diseases. Among the PoC tests developed so far, active matrix metalloproteinase-8 has shown promising results in terms of diagnostic and prognostic values. However, further studies are required to increase the sensitivity and specificity via combining more than one biomarker and merging these test kits with periodontal risk assessment tools. Furthermore, the validity of these test kits needs to be investigated by applying the results in further independent studies and the impact on these test kits’, together with the results of risk factors for periodontal diseases, such as diabetes and smoking, also needs to be examined.

Abstract
Periodontal disease is a chronic multifactorial infectious and inflammatory disease associated with several chronic systemic diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases (CVD), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension, Alzheimer’s disease and so on. These same systemic diseases have been associated with severe COVID-19 infections. Several recent studies have suggested hypotheses for the potential association between periodontal disease and severe COVID-19. Periodontal disease is also one of the most prevalent diseases globally. All this supports the importance of good oral health, also in the COVID-19 era. Thus, new strategies and approaches to identify patients at risk of periodontal disease could be beneficial to enhance secondary prevention, especially if targeted to COVID-19 risk groups. Diagnostic biomarkers for periodontal disease have been researched extensively. Potential biomarkers in oral fluid with currently available rapid non-invasive point-of-care technology, such as aMMP-8, could help to extend screening and identification of patients at risk for periodontal disease also to situations and places where professional dental expertise and equipment are limited or unavailable. i.e., nursing and care homes, and rural and distant places. The oral fluid point-of-care technologies could also be useful in the hands of medical professionals (diabetes, CVD, etc.) to identify patients at risk for undiagnosed periodontal disease and to refer them to a dentist for examination and evaluation. Finally, if there is a causality between periodontal disease and severe COVID-19 infections, these point-of-care oral fluid biomarker technologies could possibly also help in the assessment of the risk of deterioration and complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Salivary diagnostic using matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) and S100 for periodontitis is a promising issue. However, its prognostic effect is still unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic ability of salivary MMP-9 and S100A8 for periodontitis through non-surgical periodontitis treatment clinical trial. MATERIALS AND METHODS Total 149 participants, 99 periodontitis and 50 healthy, were recruited. Among 99 non-surgical periodontitis treatment participants, 74 participants were revisited after three months. Periodontitis was classified as stage II-IV of new classification of periodontitis proposed at 2018. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit was used to quantify salivary MMP-9 and S100A8. Receiver operating characteristic curve was applied for diagnostic ability. Paired t test was applied for prognostic ability evaluating changes in salivary markers between pre- and post-treatment. RESULTS Salivary MMP-9 and S100A8 were associated with periodontitis (p < .05). The screening ability of algorithm using salivary MMP-9 and S100A8 for periodontitis was 0.86 (p < .05). After treatment, reduction rate of salivary S100A8 and MMP-9 was 83.7% and 23.5%, respectively, (p < .05): only salivary S100A8 was superior compared to clinical parameters. CONCLUSION Algorithm using salivary MMP-9 and S100A8 showed high diagnostic power for periodontitis. Both salivary S100A8 and MMP-9 showed prognostic ability for periodontitis, but S100A8 was better.

Abstract
Background:
Periodontal therapy consists of eliminating the inflammation, treating periodontal pockets, motivating the patient for oral hygiene, and, if necessary, for surgical treatment. Recently, the application of a diode laser is widely being investigated for periodontal disease treatment.
Objective:
The analysis and evaluation of the clinical and biochemical impact of diode laser periodontal treatment, compared to either surgical or non-surgical, therapy, was the aim of this study.
Methods:
The study involved 80 patients older than 18 with at least 20 teeth. Evaluation of periodontal parameters was done conveniently on a single-rooted tooth (incisive, canine, premolar) on six surfaces, before the start of periodontal therapy, and after three, and six months. The laser used in the study was a diode laser with a wavelength of 980 nm. Digital X-rays were taken for bone level evaluation before and after the treatment. The presence of a bone destruction mediator (Matrix metalloproteinase-8 - MMP-8) was evaluated by the dipstick immunoassay test. Biochemical analysis and radiographic measurements were evaluated at the baseline and six months after the treatment. The statistical analysis included χ2-test and one-way ANOVA.
Results:
The results of this study showed that diode laser treatment was more effective in reducing periodontal clinical parameters, lowering MMP-8 levels and reducing the bone loss, compared to the group treated with scaling and root planning, or with a surgical approach.
Conclusion:
Diode laser may be considered as an effective alternative for periodontal treatment, with benefits in clinical and biochemical parameters.

Abstract
Objectives
Asymptomatic apical periodontitis (AAP) is one of the most widespread chronic inflammatory diseases in the field of dental medicine. Active matrix metalloproteinase (aMMP-8) previously demonstrated diagnostic potential as a biomarker for AAP in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF). The aim of this study was to determine the levels and diagnostic accuracy of aMMP-8 in GCF from teeth with AAP.
Materials and Methods
In this cross-sectional study, GCF samples were obtained from teeth with AAP (sample group,
n
= 31) and their contralateral teeth (control group,
n
= 31). Clinical and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) parameters were used for the diagnosis and assessment of AAP and the determination of clinically healthy marginal periodontal tissues. One pool GCF sample per tooth was obtained from the whole crevice’s perimeter. aMMP-8 levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
Statistical Analysis
Wilcoxon signed ranks test and Spearman rank correlation coefficient (rs) were used as statistical tools. The significance level was set at
p
< .05.
Results
The two groups demonstrated biomarker levels corresponding to a healthy marginal periodontal tissue. aMMP-8 levels were statistically and significantly higher in the samples collected from teeth with AAP. Lesions with greater volume showed correspondingly larger diameters. No statistically significant correlation between aMMP-8 levels and lesions’ volume or diameter was discovered.
Conclusion
GCF composition is modified by AAP only to a minimal extent. Further research is needed to substantiate the utilization of aMMP-8 as a potential biomarker for the diagnosis of the disease as well as to explore its relationship with other biomarkers.

Abstract
The diagnostic accuracy of point-of-care (PoC) applications may be compromised in individuals with additional inflammatory conditions. This cross-sectional study examined the performance of a commercial oral rinse active matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) PoC immunotest in individuals with (n = 47) and without Crohn's disease (CD) (n = 41). Oral rinse collected from the participants was analyzed by the PoC immunotest. Molecular forms and fragments of salivary MMP-8 were detected by western immunoblotting. The sensitivity of the immunotest for periodontitis was 60.0% in the CD group and 90.0% in the control group. The respective specificity was 75.0% and 80.0%. In both groups, clinical diagnosis of periodontitis exhibited a significant association with the immunotest results, however, the odds ratio (OR) was more than ten-fold in controls (OR 54.3, 95% CI: 3.1-953, p = 0.006) in comparison to CD patients (OR 5.2, 95% CI: 1.3-21.6, p = 0.022). According to Western immunoblot results, the immunotest MMP-8 positivity was not related to elevated levels of molecular forms and fragments of MMP-8 in the CD group, as in the control group. The diagnostic accuracy of the aMMP-8 PoC oral rinse immunotest is reduced in CD patients, which may be related to lower levels or undetectable complexes.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the utility of incorporating active matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) as a biomarker into the new periodontitis classification system (stage/grade) presented in 2018. This study included 150 Greek adults aged 25-78, of whom 74 were men and 76 women. Participants were tested with an aMMP-8 point-of-care mouthrinse test, after which a full-mouth clinical examination was performed to assess their periodontal and oral health. The aMMP-8 levels in mouthrinse were significantly lower among healthy patients compared with patients in more severe periodontitis stages and grades (Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn-Bonferroni test for pairwise post-hoc comparisons; p < 0.01 and p < 0.05, respectively). Furthermore, aMMP-8 levels were less correlated with plaque levels than bleeding on probing (BOP) (Spearman's rho = 0.269, p < 0.001; Spearman's rho = 0.586, p < 0.001); respectively). Thus, aMMP-8 was more robust to the confounding effects of oral hygiene than traditional periodontal parameter bleeding on probing. The aMMP-8 point-of-care mouthrinse test can be utilized as an adjunctive and preventive diagnostic tool to identify periodontal disease, classified by stage and grade, and ongoing periodontal breakdown chairside in clinical practice in only 5 min. Overall, integrating aMMP-8 into the new periodontitis classification system seems beneficial.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Peptidoglycan recognition protein 1 (PGLYRP1), a member of peptidoglycan recognition proteins, is known to be involved in the proinflammatory response toward bacterial infections. Recently, PGLYRP1 was identified as a ligand for triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1). Although PGLYRP1 is involved in immune and inflammatory responses, its levels in initial stages of periodontal disease in adolescents are currently unknown. OBJECTIVES We aimed to investigate salivary levels of PGLYRP1 and its correlation with TREM-1, polymorphonuclear leukocyte elastase (PMN elastase), and an active matrix metalloproteinase 8 (aMMP-8) in adolescents. METHODS Whole saliva samples (n = 537) were collected from 15- to 16-y-old adolescents at Kotka Health Center, Finland, prior to periodontal examination, including measurement of periodontal pocket depth (PPD), visible plaque index (VPI), and bleeding on probing (BOP). Adolescents, clustered as periodontally healthy, gingivitis, or subclinical periodontitis, were tested for salivary levels of TREM-1, PGLYRP1, and PMN elastase by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and aMMP-8 by a time-resolved immunofluorometric assay (IFMA). RESULTS Salivary levels of PGLYRP1 and aMMP-8 were significantly higher in adolescents with subclinical periodontitis and gingivitis compared to individuals with healthy periodontium. TREM-1 and PMN elastase levels were higher in adolescents with subclinical periodontitis compared to healthy individuals but did not reach significance. PGLYRP1 correlated positively with BOP, PPD, VPI, aMMP-8, and TREM-1. CONCLUSIONS Elevated PGLYRP1 levels in adolescents with gingivitis and subclinical periodontitis and its positive correlation with TREM-1 and aMMP-8 may indicate an association of PGLYRP1 with initial stages of periodontal disease. Sex and poor oral hygiene but not smoking are also associated with higher levels of PGLYRP1. However, PGLYRP1 has a lower discriminating capacity and is therefore a less reliable marker alone in the diagnosis of initial stages of periodontal disease in adolescents. KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER STATEMENT PGLYRP1, a member of peptidoglycan recognition proteins, is a ligand for TREM-1. Elevated PGLYRP1 levels in adolescents with gingivitis and subclinical periodontitis and its positive correlation with TREM-1 and aMMP-8 may indicate an association of PGLYRP1 with initial stages of periodontal disease. However, it has a lower discriminating capacity and is therefore a less reliable marker alone in the diagnosis of periodontal disease in adolescents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was the investigation of concentration and prevalence of selected periodontal pathogenic bacteria and concentration of active matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) within a group of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and to compare the results with a group of healthy control subjects (HC). METHODS Fifty-nine IBD patients with Crohn`s disease (CD, n = 30) or ulcerative colitis (UC, n = 29) and 59 HC were included in this cross-sectional study. Based on periodontal probing depth (PD) and clinical attachment level (CAL), periodontitis was classified as healthy/mild, moderate, or severe. aMMP-8 was analyzed from gingival crevicular fluid using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Eleven selected periodontal pathogenic bacteria were analyzed in subgingival plaque samples using polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS IBD patients showed higher CAL (P < 0.01), more severe periodontitis (P = 0.04), gingival bleeding (P < 0.01) and aMMP-8 concentration (P < 0.01) than HC. Only in CD, increasing severity of periodontitis was associated with an increase in aMMP-8 concentration (P = 0.02). The prevalences of Eubacterium nodatum and Eikenella corrodens were significantly lower in IBD compared to HC (P = 0.01). Additionally, the prevalence of Eikenella corrodens was significantly higher in CD compared to the UC group (P = 0.04). Further statistically significant differences in selected bacteria between IBD and HC or CD and UC groups could not be found (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The results reveal changes in host immune response of IBD patients in terms of aMMP-8. Only in CD increasing aMMP-8 was associated with severity of periodontal disease. The role of periodontal pathogenic bacteria in the interrelationship between IBD and periodontitis remains unclear.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM-1) is a cell-surface receptor involved in amplification of inflammatory response to bacterial infections, along with its ligand peptidoglycan recognition protein 1 (PGLYRP1). TREM-1 is shed by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) to its soluble (s) form. The aim of the study is to investigate association of sTREM-1 and PGLYRP1 with oral inflammatory burden among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) at predialysis and posttransplantation stages. METHODS One hundred forty-four patients with CKD were examined at predialysis, and oral infection foci were treated prior to kidney transplantation. Fifty-three patients were available for follow-up after transplantation. Oral inflammatory burden was assessed by the Periodontal Inflammatory Burden Index (PIBI) and Total Dental Index. sTREM-1, PGLYRP1, and interleukin (IL)-1β were measured in saliva by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and MMP-8 was measured by immunofluorometric assay. RESULTS In the predialysis stage, sTREM-1 and PGLYRP1 were positively associated with IL-1β, MMP-8, and PIBI. More specifically, patients with deeper probing depth (PD) (at least two sites with ≥6 mm) had higher concentrations of salivary sTREM-1 and PGLYRP1 compared with those with shallower PD. Higher concentrations of PGLYRP1 and IL-1β were associated with a higher number of teeth (> 25). On follow-up, higher PGLYRP1 and sTREM-1 were associated with one or more sites with ≥4 mm PD. CONCLUSIONS sTREM-1 and PGLYRP1 are elevated in patients with CKD with poor oral health and positively correlate with number of active periodontal pockets after oral infection therapy. Moreover, they positively correlate with MMP-8 and IL-1β. Hence, the salivary sTREM-1/PGLYRP1 axis could be useful as a diagnostic marker for oral infection within patients with CKD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim was to examine the caries incidence in adolescents using the Public Dental Service (PDS) during a 5-year period in relation to their caries experience at baseline and risk classification. METHODS A 5-year retrospective cohort study based of the dental records from 17 PDS clinics in south-eastern Sweden was conducted; 159 individuals born in 1997 were included, and their caries risk was classified at 12 and 17 years of age. Caries prevalence and documented risk groups were assessed at baseline and after 5 years. RESULTS The increment of caries (both initial and manifest caries) was higher, to a statistically significant degree, after 5 years in adolescents who were recorded as caries-free at baseline compared to individuals with caries at baseline (P < .001). In individuals with caries at baseline, the greatest increment of caries was found at approximal sites (P < .001). At baseline, individuals were classified as low (94%), medium (6%) and high risk (0%). After 5 years, the figures were 74%, 20% and 6%, respectively. Although classified in a low-caries risk group, 9% had ≥6 decayed or filled surfaces at baseline, and 23% did after 5 years. Approximately 62% of individuals were registered as caries-free at baseline, and 45% were after 5 years. CONCLUSIONS There was an increase in caries over 5 years, especially among adolescents without caries experience at baseline. The majority of adolescents had the same risk classification after 5 years. Further research with a larger sample size is needed to evaluate risk assessment for caries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Active matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) enzymes are associated with inflammation and the degradation of implant-supporting tissues. A high concentration of these enzymes in the peri-implant sulcular fluid (PISF) has been associated with a pathological condition. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the ability of a chair-side MMP-8 test to individuate pathological peri-implant site. The working hypothesis is that positive response to MMP-8 test corresponds to pathological values of periodontal indexes. A secondary working hypothesis is that PISF sampling method influences the test accuracy. METHODS Fifty implants from 50 patients were evaluated during scheduled follow-up appointments in a clinical setting using the MMP-8 chair-side test and periodontal indices (probing depth, bleeding on probing, plaque index and peri-implant inflammation index). Two methods of PISF sampling were tested. RESULTS The MMP-8 test demonstrated significant diagnostic capacity and good sensitivity and accuracy regarding indices of bleeding on probing, plaque index, and peri-implant inflammation index but fair agreement. CONCLUSIONS Further studies should be performed to better define the interpretation of the MMP-8 chair-test results and their correlation to peri-implant indexes.

Abstract
Periodontitis is an economically important disease which is highly prevalent worldwide. Current diagnostic approaches are time-consuming and require interpretation of multiple aspects of clinical and radiographic assessment. Chair-side monitoring of inflammatory mediators of periodontitis could provide immediate information about disease activity, which can inform patient management. We aimed to develop a novel prototype biosensor to measure salivary matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) using specific antibodies and surface acoustic wave (SAW) technology. The analytical performance of the prototype biosensor was compared to standard enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using unstimulated saliva samples obtained from patients with periodontitis before and after non-surgical treatment (N = 58), patients with gingivitis (N = 54) and periodontally healthy volunteers (N = 65). Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) analysis for distinguishing periodontitis from health revealed an almost identical performance between the sensor and ELISA assays (area under curve values (AUC): ELISA 0.93; SAW 0.89). Furthermore, both analytical approaches yielded readouts which distinguished between heath, gingivitis and periodontitis, correlated identically with clinical measures of periodontal disease and recorded similar post-treatment decreases in salivary MMP-8 in periodontitis. The assay time for our prototype device is 20 minutes. The prototype SAW biosensor is a novel and rapid method of monitoring periodontitis which delivers similar analytical performance to conventional laboratory assays.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) expression has been associated with tissue development, invasive cancer cell behavior, and inflammation. The associations of increased expression of MMPs with diseases have led to intensive research activities to develop MMP inhibitors. Here, the questions are addressed which associations between increased levels of any MMP with dental diseases may be cause or consequence, whether MMP levels may be of diagnostic value and whether and which MMP inhibitors need further investigations for use in dental diseases. METHODS To study the role of MMPs and to discriminate between cause or consequence, the literature about measurements of MMPs and about the use of inhibitory drugs and genetic knockout animal models in dentistry was compared. RESULTS The only FDA-approved treatment with MMP inhibitors is tetracyclines for periodontitis, whereas a diagnostic test for activated MMP-8 in oral fluids is valued in practical periodontology. The MMP literature in dentistry is artificially skewed to the gelatinases MMP-2 and MMP-9 and to enamelysin, alias MMP-20. The basis for this observation is, respectively, the widely used and sensitive technique of gelatin zymography and enamel proteins as substrates of MMP-20. Studies on additional MMPs are gaining interest in dentistry and MMP inhibitors may provide new applications. In addition, drugs with proven effects for the treatment of dental diseases may be found to act through MMP inhibition. CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE In conclusion, research on MMPs and inhibitors may provide practical applications beyond diagnosis and treatment of periodontitis and will be, directly or indirectly, beneficial for patients with dental or periodontal diseases.

Abstract
The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate associations between salivary active matrix-metalloproteinase 8 (aMMP-8) and periodontitis severity, potentially periodontal pathogenic bacteria as well as blood parameters in generally healthy participants. Therefore, 188 participants with a mean age of 48.9 ± 8 years were examined. The periodontitis severity was assessed based on periodontal probing depth and clinical attachment loss. Both, aMMP-8 and microbiological analysis were performed using a validated, commercially available test system. Blood values were utilized from regular differential blood count. The aMMP-8 findings were associated with the periodontitis severity (P < 0.01), as well as with the prevalence of Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, Prevotella intermedia, Parvimonas micra, Camphylobacter rectus and Eubacterium nodatum (Pi < 0.05). No associations between aMMP-8 and the examined blood parameters were found (Pi > 0.05). In conclusion, salivary aMMP-8 findings seem to reflect periodontal disease severity as a result of an immunoreaction, especially against bacteria with high periodontal pathogenic potential.

[PMID: 30909530 PMCID: PMC6468891 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics9010034] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2019] [Revised: 03/16/2019] [Accepted: 03/21/2019] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
This cross-sectional study compares the effectiveness of an active MMP-8 (aMMP-8) point-of-care (PoC)/chairside mouthrinse test to the conventional bleeding on probing (BOP) (cutoff 20%) test in detecting subclinical periodontitis/pre-periodontitis in Finnish adolescents. The study was carried out at the Kotka Health Center, Finland. A total of 47 adolescents (30 boys/17 girls) aged 15–17 were first tested with the aMMP-8 PoC test, followed by a full-mouth evaluation of clinical parameters of oral health including periodontal, oral mucosal, and caries assessment. A periodontist performed these clinical examinations. The aMMP-8 PoC test result had much stronger association with subclinical periodontitis than the BOP 20% test (2.8–5.3 times stronger in terms of odds ratio). The aMMP-8 PoC test had ≥2 times higher sensitivity than the BOP 20% test with, generally, the same specificity. Further, the aMMP-8 PoC test had generally better accuracy and lower false negative percentages. The aMMP-8 PoC test seemed to be more effective than the conventional BOP test in detecting subclinical periodontitis/pre-periodontitis in adolescents reducing the risk of their undertreatment. However, the sample size may be a limiting factor, and more studies are needed to confirm our results for both adolescents and adults.

[PMID: 30614160 DOI: 10.1111/odi.13030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2018] [Revised: 12/19/2018] [Accepted: 12/21/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
In order for chairside diagnostic testing to make an impact on dental therapy, practitioners require a better understanding of genetic mutations contributing to the pathophysiology of periodontal disease. Commensal and pathogenic bacterial colonization in oral cavity tissues produces a cascade of proinflammatory signaling pathways ultimately detrimental to host tissues. Resolving inflammation is a multifactorial process involving the downregulation of proinflammatory cytokines while allowing commensal bacterial levels to return to normal. Because of the complicated nature of commensal bacteria and oral health homeostasis, the emphasis of dental therapy should place renewed focus on limiting destructive inflammation rather than solely eliminating bacteria. Salivary diagnostics are an easy, non-invasive way to assess inflammatory markers. Inflammatory cytokine levels can help determine the subclinical health of a patient, showing the transition from health to gingivitis, or periodontitis, prior to clinical presentation. Single nucleotide polymorphism mutations can aid in determining increased risk of developing periodontitis. Taken together, and alongside regular clinical evaluations, chairside diagnostics help individualize treatment plans to slow, or halt, the progression of disease-before tissue destruction can take place. While more studies are needed analyzing specific mutations across periodontal categories, chairside diagnostics present an exciting adjunct to improve patient care.

Cross-sectional analysis of risk factors for subclinical periodontitis; active matrix metalloproteinase-8 as a potential indicator in initial periodontitis in adolescents.

[PMID: 30397915 DOI: 10.1002/jper.18-0450] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2018] [Revised: 09/23/2018] [Accepted: 10/19/2018] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate how different patient-related risk indicators might be associated with the odds of developing subclinical periodontitis in adolescents. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 252 Finnish individuals aged 15 to 16 years, of whom 141 were boys and 111 girls. A specially trained dentist performed clinical examinations: measurements included periodontal indexes (bleeding on probing, visible plaque index, root calculus, and probing depth, smoking by pack-years, periodontal bacteria (Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, Prevotella intermedia, Prevotella nigrescens, and Treponema denticola) and the potential salivary periodontal biomarkers (active matrix metalloproteinase-8 [aMMP-8], polymorphonuclear leukocyte elastase [PMN elastase], and total protein, albumin, immunoglobulin A, immunoglobulin G, and immunoglobulin M). Results were analyzed by ordinal logistic regression, one-way analysis of variance, Fisher exact test, and Kruskal-Wallis H test. RESULTS The main finding of this study was that subclinical periodontitis in adolescents was statistically significantly associated with elevated salivary aMMP-8 but not with PMN elastase. Also, adolescents with subclinical periodontitis had statistically significantly higher levels of bleeding on probing, root calculus, and dental plaque than adolescents without subclinical periodontitis. CONCLUSIONS We suggest that the main risk factor for subclinical periodontitis in adolescents is the partly calcified, dysbiotic bacterial biofilm, which interacts with the immune defenses of the host; this leads to gingival inflammation and eventually to deepening periodontal pockets. This proinflammatory subclinical periodontitis stage, which represents stage I periodontitis in the new classification, is reflected as elevated salivary aMMP-8 levels in oral fluids.

Abstract
Traditional periodontal disease diagnostics are based mainly on clinical examination and radiographs. They assess only past tissue destruction and provide no information on the current disease status or its future progression. The objective is to find out if an active matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) point-of-care (PoC) test could provide a cost-effective way to get around this limitation. This cross-sectional study used 47 adolescents and 70 adults, who were clinically examined and their aMMP-8 PoC tested. The aMMP-8 PoC test results and patients’ treatment need, based on the community periodontal index of treatment needs (CPITN), were compared and analyzed using Fisher’s exact test. In terms of CPITN, the aMMP-8 PoC test gave no false positives for both adolescents and adults. All healthy patients got a negative test result, while a positive test result indicated periodontal treatment need correctly. Finally, there was a significant association between a patient’s aMMP-8 PoC test result and his/her treatment need (p = 0.001 for adolescents, p = 0.001 for adults). In conclusion, more accurate diagnostics of periodontal diseases’ activity and progression using an aMMP-8 PoC test may help to reduce oral health care costs by reducing patient overtreatment, improving patient outcome, and reducing the need for complex periodontal therapy.

Abstract
Levels of and especially the degree of activation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-8) in oral fluids (i.e., saliva, mouth rinse, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and peri-implantitis sulcular fluid (PISF)) increase to pathologically elevated levels in the periodontal and peri-implant diseases. This study aimed at collecting and collating data from previously published studies and determining whether active MMP-8 (aMMP-8) could serve as a biomarker for the diagnosis and prevention of periodontal and peri-implant diseases. The literature search identified a total of 284 articles. Out of 284 articles, 61 articles were found to be relevant. Data obtained from the selected studies were combined, and it indicated that aMMP-8 in oral fluids exerts the strong potential to serve as a useful adjunctive diagnostic and preventive biotechnological tool in periodontal and peri-implant diseases. aMMP-8 can be used alone or in combination with other proinflammatory and/or microbiological biomarkers.

Abstract
A novel qualitative point-of-care test of activated matrix metalloproteinase-8 (aMMP-8) using noninvasive oral rinse sampling procedures has been developed for the early detection of collagen breakdown indicating periodontal tissue destruction. The main object of this study was to assess the reliability of the test in a low-income setting to identify participants with history of periodontal destruction detected as alveolar bone loss (ABL) in radiographs. This cross-sectional study included 486 women who had recently delivered in rural Malawi. The aMMP-8 test and dental panoramic radiographs were taken within 48 h of delivery. The performance of the test in comparison to radiological examinations was tested by following the standards for reporting of diagnostic accuracy studies protocol (STARD) with respective statistical measures and 95% confidence intervals. From the 486 eligible participants, 461 mothers with complete data, aged from 15 to 46 years (mean 24.8, SD 6.0) were included in the analysis. ABL was identified in 116 of 461 participants. There was 56% agreement between the aMMP-8 test results and detected ABL (yes or no) in radiographs. Calculated sensitivity of the test was 80% (72–87%), specificity 48% (43–54%), positive predictive value 34% (31–37%), negative predictive value 88% (83–91%), positive likelihood ratio 1.55 (1.35–1.77), and negative likelihood ratio 0.41(0.28–0.60). The aMMP-8 test sensitivity and negative predictive value to identify the ABL cases were relatively high, but there was additionally a high rate of test-positive results in participants without ABL, especially in young mothers, leading to low overall agreement between the test results and radiological bone loss. Further longitudinal studies are needed to examine if the test positive subjects are in risk of future bone loss before the detectable signs of periodontitis in radiographs.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of this retrospective cross-sectional study was to evaluate whether salivary findings of active matrix-metalloproteinase 8 (aMMP-8) chairside (point of care; POC) tests were associated with periodontal risk assessment parameters in patients receiving supportive periodontal therapy (SPT). Methods A total of 125 patients receiving regular SPT were included, and their records were examined. The following inclusion criteria were used: a diagnosis of chronic periodontitis, at least 1 non-surgical periodontal treatment (scaling and root planning) with following regular SPT (minimum once a year), at least 6 remaining teeth, and clinical and aMMP-8 findings that were obtained at the same appointment. In addition to anamnestic factors (e.g., smoking and diabetes), oral hygiene indices (modified sulcus bleeding index [mSBI] and approximal plaque index), periodontal probing depth simultaneously with bleeding on probing, and dental findings (number of decayed, missing, and filled teeth) were recorded. Salivary aMMP-8 levels were tested using a commercial POC test system (Periomarker, Hager & Werken, Duisburg, Germany). Statistical analysis was performed using the t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, Fisher's exact test, and χ2 test, as appropriate (P<0.05). Results Only the mSBI was significantly associated with positive salivary aMMP-8 findings (aMMP-8 positive: 27.8%±20.9% vs. aMMP-8 negative: 18.0%±14.5%; P=0.017). No significant associations were found between aMMP-8 and smoking, diabetes, periodontal parameters, or parameters related to the maintenance interval (P>0.05). Conclusions Salivary aMMP-8 chairside findings were not associated with common parameters used for periodontal risk assessment in patients receiving SPT. The diagnostic benefit of POC salivary aMMP-8 testing in risk assessment and maintenance interval adjustment during SPT remains unclear.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of anti-rheumatic medications on salivary matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8 levels and MMP-8/TIMP (tissue inhibitor of MMPs)-1 ratio in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and periodontal findings during a 1-year follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS Salivary MMP-8 was measured by an immunofluorometric assay and TIMP-1 by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of 53 patients with early untreated RA (ERA), naïve to synthetic disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs), of 28 patients with chronic RA (CRA), candidates for biologic DMARDs and of 43 age- and sex-matched controls. Periodontal health was evaluated by bleeding on probing (BOP), pocket depth (PD), and periodontal inflammatory burden index (PIBI). Examinations were conducted twice for RA patients and once for controls. RESULTS Salivary MMP-8 level and MMP-8/TIMP-1 ratio associated positively with PIBI in patients with chronic RA (MMP-8: p < 0.001 at baseline, p = 0.002 after follow-up; MMP-8/TIMP-1 ratio p < 0.001, p = 0.003, respectively) and in controls (MMP-8: p = 0.010, MMP-8/TIMP-1 ratio: p = 0.010). Salivary MMP-8 levels were highest at the early stage of RA. The used DMARDs, synthetic or biologic, did not affect salivary MMP-8 concentrations. CONCLUSIONS The use of synthetic or biologic DMARDs did not affect salivary MMP-8 levels in RA patients regardless the duration of RA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study prospectively the association of salivary and serum matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8, tissue inhibitor of MMPs (TIMP)-1 and interleukin (IL)-6 with periodontal and systemic inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We hypothesized that biomarker concentrations reflect inflammation. METHODS Fifty three early untreated RA (ERA) and 28 chronic RA (CRA) patients, underwent rheumatological and dental examinations at baseline and one year later after starting first conventional or biological disease modifying antirheumatic drug. We included 43 control subjects. Saliva and serum samples were analyzed for MMP-8, TIMP-1 and IL-6. Periodontal health was assessed by bleeding on probing (BOP), pocket depth (PD) and periodontal inflammatory burden index (PIBI); RA disease activity was assessed by disease activity score DAS28. Joint destruction was analyzed by the modified Sharp-van der Heijde (SHS) method. RESULTS Serum MMP-8 (p < .001; p < .001) and IL-6 (p < .001; p = .002) were significantly higher in CRA vs. other study groups during the study. Salivary MMP-8 (p = .010) and IL-6 (p = .010) were significantly higher in ERA vs. other study groups at baseline. Salivary MMP-8 was associated with periodontal parameters. CONCLUSION Elevated serum concentrations of MMP-8 and IL-6 in CRA patients reflected chronic RA, while elevated salivary concentrations of MMP-8 levels in ERA patients reflected increased periodontal inflammation. Key messages Concentrations of inflammatory biomarkers in serum and saliva were different between patients with RA and healthy controls. Concentrations of MMP-8 and of IL-6 in serum were elevated in patients with chronic RA reflecting joint inflammation and the burden of established RA. Concentrations of MMP-8 in saliva was elevated already at the early stage of RA and the level of salivary MMP-8 was associated with poor periodontal health both in patients with early and in those with chronic RA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical evaluation of periodontal inflammation does not fully reflect the disease activity. Extensive studies have been conducted out on gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) components that might serve as potential diagnostic markers for periodontitis, among which matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) has shown to be promising, but there were no studies for individuals in China. The aim of this study was to compare clinical diagnostic parameters and levels of active MMP-8 (aMMP-8) in GCF and oral rinse samples from the Chinese patients with varying degrees of periodontal inflammation. METHODS GCF and oral rinse samples were obtained from 60 participants into two groups, a periodontitis group and a control group, specified by the presence and number of pocket depths or attachment loss. The aMMP-8 levels in GCF and oral rinse samples was quantified by ELISA using specific monoclonal antibodies. Logistic and linear regression models were employed for testing the correlation between aMMP-8 levels and periodontal condition, as well as diagnostic sensitivity and specificity. RESULTS Periodontitis group (mean = 24.84 ng/ml) exhibited significantly higher aMMP-8 levels than control group in GCF (p < 0.001). The aMMP-8 levels in oral rinse samples ranged from 0.05 to 2.18 ng/ml, but differences were not statistically significant between the two groups (p > 0.1). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed a highest threshold of 6.66, with a corresponding sensitivity and specificity of 0.8 and 0.9, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Measuring aMMP-8 levels in GCF may have potentiality for complementary early diagnosis of periodontal disease and inflammation in the Chinese population.
