Dental plaque as a biofilm and a microbial community—Implications for treatment
Conclusion An appreciation of ecological principles can lead to new strategies for treatment by identifying and removing the factors that drive dysbiosis, while actively supporting the growth of the natural oral microbiota. Also, the beneficial activities of the resident oral microbiota are retained and the risk of dysbiosis is reduced. (Source: Journal of Oral Biosciences)

Biomaterial properties of titanium in dentistry
Conclusion This review presents an overview of the properties of titanium that are vital for its use in implant dentistry. From a restorative perspective, interaction between implant restoration metals, intra-oral fluorides and pH may cause titanium to corrode. Therefore, in order to avoid the resulting deleterious effects, an understanding of these interactions is important for long-term prognosis of implant restorations.

GLP-1R expression in the major salivary glands of rats
Conclusions This is the first time that GLP-1R expression has been detected in rat PG, SMG, and SLG. Our findings provide new insights into the effects of GLP-1 and GLP-1R in the major salivary glands of rats. Furthermore, our results indicate a new role for GLP-1 in salivary secretion, and potentially a new pathway for glucose metabolism. (Source: Journal of Oral Biosciences)

Inhibition of bone morphogenetic protein-induced osteoblast differentiation
Conclusion In addition to BMP-3, NF-κB, and TLE3, numerous inhibitors suppress BMP-induced osteoblast differentiation. Therefore, a precise understanding of mechanisms underlying the inhibition of osteoblast differentiation may help develop novel methods for treating bone-related diseases or for the tissue engineering of the bone.
