Soft tissue changes following extraction vs. nonextraction orthodontic fixed appliance treatment: a systematic review and meta ‐analysis
The aim of this systematic review was to assess the effect of systematic extraction protocols during orthodontic fixed appliance treatment on the soft tissue profile of human patients. Nine databases were searched until December 2016 for controlled clinical studies including premolar extraction or nonextraction treatment. After elimination of duplicate studies, data extraction, and risk‐of‐bias assessment according to the Cochrane guidelines, random‐effects meta‐analyses of mean differences (MD) or standardized mean differences (SMD) and their 95% CIs were performed, followed by subgroup, meta‐regression, and sen...

Factors predictive of the onset and duration of action of local anesthesia in mandibular third ‐molar surgery: a prospective study
The aim of this study was to assess the influence of patients' and surgical variables on the onset and duration of action of local anesthesia (LA) in mandibular third‐molar (M3) surgery. Patients scheduled for mandibular M3 surgery were considered for inclusion in this prospective cohort study. Patients’ and surgical variables were recorded. Two per cent (2%) lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine was used to block the nerves for extraction of mandibular M3. Then, the onset of action and duration of LA were monitored. Univariate analysis and multivariate regression analysis were used to analyze the data. The final cohort...

Mineral trioxide aggregate enriched with iron disulfide nanostructures: an evaluation of their physical and biological properties
The purpose of this study was to characterize mineral trioxide aggregates (MTA) enriched with iron disulfide (FeS2) nanostructures at different concentrations, and to investigate their storage modulus, radiopacity, setting time, pH, cytotoxicity, and antimicrobial activity. Iron disulfide nanostructures [with particle size of 0.357 ± 0.156 μm (mean ± SD)] at weight ratios of 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 wt% were added to white MTA (wMTA). The radiopacity, rheological properties, setting time, and pH, as well as the cytotoxicity (assessed using the MTT assay) and antibacterial activity (assessed using the broth micr...

The host defense peptide LL ‐37 is detected in human parotid and submandibular/sublingual saliva and expressed in glandular neutrophils
The human host defense peptide, LL‐37, is an important player in the first line of defense against invading microorganisms. LL‐37 and its precursor, hCAP18, have been detected in unstimulated whole saliva but no reports showing hCAP18/LL‐37 in isolated, parotid, and/or submandibular/sublingual saliva have been presented. Here, we measured the levels of hCAP18/LL‐37 in human parotid and submandibular/sublingual saliva and investigated the expression of hCAP18/LL‐37 in parotid and submandibular gland tissue. Parotid and submandibular/sublingual saliva was collected from healthy volunteers, and the levels of hCAP18/...

The immunopathogenic and immunomodulatory effects of interleukin ‐12 in periodontal disease
Interleukin 12 (IL‐12) is an inflammatory cytokine that promotes the response of the immune system. This cytokine has been implicated as a potent stimulator of several diseases characterized by inflammatory‐induced bone destruction, such as rheumatoid arthritis and periodontitis. Yet, the exact role of IL‐12 in the development and progress of periodontitis has not been clarified. Several studies have demonstrated a positive correlation between the level of IL‐12 and the severity of periodontal destruction. Deletion of IL‐12 in mice with periodontitis significantly suppressed the level of bone destruction. Interes...
