  1. 11. Studies on Pellicle and Early Dental Plaque in Relation to Periodontal Conditions

    Author : Stefan G Rüdiger; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bacterial adherence; in vitro pellicle; in vivo pellicle; periodontitis-associated bacteria; gingival crevicular fluid; plasma proteins; dental biofilm; experimental gingivitis; chronic periodontitis; periodontal pocket; exposed root surfaces;

    Abstract : Background and Hypothesis: Bacterial receptors in dental pellicles may influence colonisation and subsequent plaque formation. Studies on such receptors in the dental pellicles and bacterial adherence have mostly been performed in vitro and focused on proteins of salivary origin. READ MORE

  2. 12. Associations between obesity, periodontal inflammation, subgingival microflora and salivary flow rate

    Author : Cecilia Zeigler; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Obesity is a large health problem and is associated with increased risk of diabetes type II, cardiovascular disease as well as implicated in a wide range of gastrointestinal disorders such as Crohn’s disease and subclinical bowel inflammation. Obesity is also associated with enhanced prevalence of chronic periodontitis in adults. READ MORE

  3. 13. Studies on the Associations between Dental Caries, Periodontal Disease and Different Systemic Conditions

    Author : Hani T Fadel; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adipokines; coronary artery disease; dental caries; obesity; periodontal disease; psoriasis; risk assessment;

    Abstract : Background and aims: Dental caries and periodontal disease are the two most common oral diseases in man. Evidence shows that they may be directly or indirectly related to each other and to other systemic conditions. READ MORE

  4. 14. Periodontal implications of Salvadora persica L

    Author : Reham A Al-Babtain; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Periodontal disease is a major public health problem throughout the world and is the most common cause of tooth loss in adults. For periodontitis to develop, specific gram-negative, anaerobic bacteria must predominate in the subgingival microflora, but simple the presence of these bacteria is insufficient to cause periodontal disease as disease progression involves a complex, sequential relationship between infection, inflammation and tissue destruction.

  5. 15. Associations between oral biofilm, periodontal disease, and systemic health : with a focus on atherosclerosis and breast cancer

    Author : Maha Yakob; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : periodontal disease;

    Abstract : The general hypothesis of this series of studies was that oral infections, particularly periodontal disease, by triggering inflammatory reactions detrimentally affect systemic health where inflammations are known to play a role in the pathogenesis, namely cardiovascular disease and cancer. Consequently, the general aim was to study the association between oral biofilm and certain oral micro-organisms, periodontal disease, and selected inflammatory markers with a focus on atherosclerosis and breast cancer (BC).
