Abstract
AIM This current Mendelian randomization (MR) study aims to comprehensively explore the potential bidirectional link between pulp and periapical disease (PAP) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODOLOGY Summary level data of European-based population genome-wide association studies (GWASs) were employed to undertake this MR study. With the selection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as the instrumental variable, the radial inverse-variance weighted (radial IVW) method with modified second-order weights was applied as the primary method. Additionally, a range of sensitivity analyses were conducted to investigate pleiotropy. Results from different sources of outcome were pooled by meta-analysis with the fixed model. RESULTS The results of this MR analysis did not suggest a significant impact of pulp and periapical disease on type 2 diabetes (combined OR = 1.04, 95% CI: 1.00-1.07, p = .033) and vice versa (OR = 1.04, 95% CI: 0.96-1.14, p = .329). No significant pleiotropy was detected in the final model after the removal of outliers, demonstrating the reliability of the results in our primary analysis. CONCLUSIONS With the limitations inherent in the present MR study, there is no significant evidence in either direction to suggest a causal association between pulp and periapical disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The extrusion of bacteria from infected root canals may lead to increase in symptoms, expansion of periapical lesions, and contribution to systemic diseases. The aim of this study is to investigate a potential proof-of-concept model to study the extent to which bacteria can escape from infected root canals under dynamic loading (simulated chewing). METHODS The study was completed in 2 experiments performed at 2 institutions. Biofilms of Streptococcus intermedius in the first experiment and S. intermedius and Actinomyces naeslundii were allowed to grow in root canals of single-rooted extracted teeth for 3 weeks. The roots of the teeth were suspended in a small chamber containing dental transport medium and were mounted on a lower sample holder of a chewing simulator. In the experimental group, simulated chewing cycles equivalent to 1 year of function were conducted, and then bacterial migration was quantified and compared with stationary teeth. RESULTS All experimental samples of the loading group revealed bacterial penetration in both experiments. Several of the unloaded samples revealed no bacterial penetration. In the first experiment, a significantly higher number of bacteria were able to escape into the periapex of the loaded group compared with the unloaded group (P = .017). In the second experiment, there was no significant difference between the 2 bacterial species used in the amount of extruded bacteria; however, there was a highly significant effect for occlusal loading (P = .0001). CONCLUSIONS The potential for occlusal forces to enhance bacterial extrusion from infected root canals should be further explored.

Effect of Endodontic Irrigating Solutions on Radicular Dentine Structure and Matrix Metalloproteinases-A Comprehensive Review. Dent J (Basel) 2022; 10:dj10120219. [PMID: 36547035 PMCID: PMC9776432 DOI: 10.3390/dj10120219] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2022] [Revised: 11/17/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Irrigating solutions play an important role in the eradication of intracanal microbes and debris dissolution during endodontic treatment. Different combinations of solutions and protocols have been advocated, with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), ethylenediamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA), and chlorhexidine (CHX) remaining the most widely used ones by many clinicians. Although these solutions provide efficient inorganic dissolution and antimicrobial capacity, their use has also been reported to cause undesired effects on root dentin composition and mechanical and biomechanical properties, such as microhardness, surface roughness, bond strength, and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity. Several corroborating studies attribute these changes in mechanical properties of dentine to the use of irrigating solutions, and there are limited reports on how the solutions affect the expression of MMPs, which may be a correlating link to understanding the role of these enzymes in dentin collagen and changes in the mechanical properties of dentin. Hence, using the basis of several studies from the literature, the objective is to comprehensively review the influence of individual and combined irrigating solutions on root dentine structure and the activity of the MMPs.

In Situ Zymography Analysis of Matrix Metalloproteinases Activity Following Endodontic Irrigation Protocols and Correlation to Root Dentine Bond Strength. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14173567. [PMID: 36080644 PMCID: PMC9460487 DOI: 10.3390/polym14173567] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2022] [Revised: 08/04/2022] [Accepted: 08/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The objective was to evaluate the effect of different root canal irrigating solutions on the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and correlation to the push-out bond strength (PBS) and nanoleakage expression (NL) in the root dentin. Seventy-two single-rooted teeth were treated endodontically and distributed into four groups (n = 6 for in-situ zymography, n = 10 for PBS, and n = 2 for NL per group) according to the irrigating solutions used: (I) saline (S); (II) 5.25% sodium hypochlorite (SH); (III) 5.25% SH + 10% citric acid (CA); and (IV) 5.25% SH + 10% CA + 0.2% chlorhexidine (CHX). After root canal obturation, post space was prepared to receive the glass fiber post. Dual-cure resin was used for luting and light polymerization was performed. The root/fiber post assemblies were sectioned and subjected to in situ zymography, and PBS and NL expression analysis tests. The enzymatic activity was quantified and expressed as a percentage of the green fluorescence, while fractographic evaluation was performed after PBS with a stereomicroscope, and data were statistically analyzed at p < 0.05. The zymography analysis shows high expression of MMPs in the middle third of the root in all groups, while the most abundant activity of MMPs following the irrigating solutions is observed in groups I and III, where saline and citric acid are used, respectively. Inversely, group IV, where chlorhexidine is the final rinse, records the lowest MMP activity with the highest PBS, and the statistical analysis of the groups are ranked as: IV > II > III > I (p < 0.05). The combination of SH, CA, and CHX results in lower expression of MMPs and higher push-out bond strength of fiber posts to root dentin, with no difference seen in the nanoleakage expression (p > 0.05); hence, this irrigation regime with chlorhexidine as a final rinse is more favorable than other combinations in ensuring optimal adhesion to root dentine.

Abstract
The ‘Focal Infection Era in Dentistry’ in the late 19th and early 20th century resulted in widespread implementation of tooth extraction and limited the progress of endodontics. The theory proposed that bacteria and toxins entrapped in dentinal tubules could disseminate systemically to remote body parts, resulting in many types of degenerative systemic diseases. This theory was eventually refuted due to anecdotal evidence. However, lately there has been increased interest in investigating whether endodontic disease could have an impact on general health. There are reviews that have previously been carried out on this subject, but as new data have emerged since then, this review aims to appraise the available literature investigating the dynamic associations between apical periodontitis, endodontic treatment, and systemic health. The available evidence regarding focal infection theory, bacteraemia and inflammatory markers was appraised. The review also collated the available research arguing the associations of apical periodontitis with cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, adverse pregnancy outcome and autoimmune disorders, along with the effect of statins and immunomodulators on apical periodontitis prevalence and endodontic treatment prognosis. There is emerging evidence that bacteraemia and low-grade systemic inflammation associated with apical periodontitis may negatively impact systemic health, e.g., development of cardiovascular diseases, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and diabetic metabolic dyscontrol. However, there is limited information supporting the effect of diabetes mellitus or autoimmune disorders on the prevalence and prognosis post endodontic treatment. Furthermore, convincing evidence supports that successful root canal treatment has a beneficial impact on systemic health by reducing the inflammatory burden, thereby dismissing the misconceptions of focal infection theory. Although compelling evidence regarding the association between apical periodontitis and systemic health is present, further high-quality research is required to support and establish the benefits of endodontic treatment on systemic health.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study described the degenerative changes and infection patterns of the pulp tissue associated with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. METHODS The material consisted of 32 extracted teeth with untreated deep caries that were clinically and histologically diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis and were part of the histopathologic collection of 1 of the authors. The controls consisted of intact teeth with normal uninflamed pulps and teeth with reversible pulpitis. Teeth were processed for histopathologic and histobacteriologic analyses. RESULTS All teeth with irreversible pulpitis showed areas of severe acute inflammation, necrosis, microabscesses, and bacterial infection in the pulp chamber. These areas were surrounded by a chronic inflammatory infiltrate, and, at the distance, the pulp tissue was often uninflamed. Bacteria were also observed in the areas surrounding the necrotic foci, both as scattered cells through the extravascular space and at varying numbers within the blood vessel lumen. The number of bacteria and the density of the intravascular bacterial aggregations varied considerably. In one third of the cases, bacteria occurred in the lumen of venules in areas at a considerable distance from the necrotic focus in the coronal third of the root. No intravascular bacteria were noted in the middle and apical segments of the canal. No bacteria were found in the pulps of any of the control specimens. CONCLUSIONS Bacterial invasion and colonization of necrotic areas were observed in the pulp of all teeth with caries exposure and symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. Bacterial penetration of blood vessels occurred in all cases, suggesting that this may be an important mechanism of spread of bacterial infection through the pulp tissue in an endodontic infection.

Abstract
Für die Effektivität und Effizienz einer antibiotischen Prophylaxe vor zahnmedizinischen Eingriffen zum Schutz vor einer infektiösen Endokarditis liegt nur eine geringe Evidenz vor, die keine Rechtfertigung zur generalisierten Therapie von Patienten mit einem erhöhten Endokarditisrisiko darstellt. Aktuelle Leitlinien empfehlen daher, Antibiotika im Rahmen der Endokarditisprophylaxe auf Patienten zu beschränken, die zum einen ein hohes Risiko für die Entstehung einer infektiösen Endokarditis aufweisen und die sich zum anderen zahnärztlichen Eingriffen mit höchstem Endokarditisrisiko unterziehen. Einen hohen Stellwert besitzen allerdings auch Mund- und Hauthygienemaßnahmen, die nicht nur auf Risikopatienten, sondern auch auf die Allgemeinbevölkerung angewendet werden sollten, da die Inzidenz der infektiösen Endokarditis bei Patienten ohne anamnestisch bekannte Herzerkrankung zunehmend ansteigt.

Abstract
Endodontics is the branch of dentistry concerned with the morphology, physiology, and pathology of the human dental pulp and periradicular tissues. Human dental pulp is a highly dynamic tissue equipped with a network of resident immunocompetent cells that play major roles in the defense against pathogens and during tissue injury. However, the efficiency of these mechanisms during dental pulp inflammation (pulpitis) varies due to anatomical and physiological restrictions. Uncontrolled, excessive, or unresolved inflammation can lead to pulp tissue necrosis and subsequent bone infections called apical periodontitis. In most cases, pulpitis treatment consists of total pulp removal. Although this strategy has a good success rate, this treatment has some drawbacks (lack of defense mechanisms, loss of healing capacities, incomplete formation of the root in young patients). In a sizeable number of clinical situations, the decision to perform pulp extirpation and endodontic treatment is justifiable by the lack of therapeutic tools that could otherwise limit the immune/inflammatory process. In the past few decades, many studies have demonstrated that the resolution of acute inflammation is necessary to avoid the development of chronic inflammation and to promote repair or regeneration. This active process is orchestrated by Specialized Pro-resolving lipid Mediators (SPMs), including lipoxins, resolvins, protectins and maresins. Interestingly, SPMs do not have direct anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting or directly blocking this process but can actively reduce neutrophil infiltration into inflamed tissues, enhance efferocytosis and bacterial phagocytosis by monocytes and macrophages and simultaneously inhibit inflammatory cytokine production. Experimental clinical application of SPMs has shown promising result in a wide range of inflammatory diseases, such as renal fibrosis, cerebral ischemia, marginal periodontitis, and cancer; the potential of SPMs in endodontic therapy has recently been explored. In this review, our objective was to analyze the involvement and potential use of SPMs in endodontic therapies with an emphasis on SPM delivery systems to effectively administer SPMs into the dental pulp space.

Abstract
Pulp-capping materials are commonly adopted in the clinic to form reparative dentin and thus protect dental pulp tissues from cases of deep caries, accidentally exposed pulps or partial pulpotomy. Some traditional pulp capping materials used in the clinic include calcium hydroxide and mineral trioxide aggregates. However, there are limitations to thin restorative dentin, and a long period of time is needed to cause degenerative changes in dental pulp. In this paper, injectable colloidal gels were developed to induce the formation of reparative dentin through a simple UV method from methacrylic acid functionalized gelatin loaded with notoginsenoside R1 (Gel-MA/NGR1). The results of the physicochemical property examinations showed that the prepared Gel-MA/NGR1 hydrogel possessed an appropriate interconnected porous microarchitecture with a pore size of 10.5 micrometres and suitable mechanical properties with a modulus of 50-60 kPa, enabling cell adhesion and proliferation. The hydrogel remained hydrophilic with sustained drug release performance. In addition, Gel-MA/NGR1 significantly enhanced the odontogenetic differentiation of mouse dental papilla cells by elevating the expression levels of the dentinogenic markers ALP and OCN and extracellular matrix mineralization. In vivo stimulation was carried out by injecting the precursors into the predrilled alveolar cavity of Sprague-Dawley rats followed by immediate in situ UV crosslinking. The results showed that Gel-MA/NGR1 has a strong capacity to promote reparative dentin formation. Haematoxylin& eosin, Masson, and immunohistochemical staining (DMP-1, DSPP, OCN and RUNX2) and micro-CT were employed to illustrate the effectiveness of dentinogenesis, and the relative volumes of calcification were found to have increased ~175-fold. All of the results showed that the Gel-MA/NGR1 hydrogel promoted reparative dentin formation, which suggests that this hydrogel provides great potential as a pulp-capping material to induce dentin formation.

Antimicrobial, antibiofilm and cytotoxic effects of a colloidal nanocarrier composed by chitosan-coated iron oxide nanoparticles loaded with chlorhexidine. J Dent 2020; 101:103453.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the antimicrobial and antibiofilm effects of a colloidal nanocarrier for chlorhexidine (CHX) on Candida glabrata and Enterococcus faecalis, as well as tested its cytotoxic effect on murine fibroblasts. METHODS Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) were coated with chitosan (CS) and loaded with CHX at 31.2, 78 and 156 μg/mL. Antimicrobial effects were assessed by determining the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), using the broth microdilution method, and fractional inhibitory concentration index (FICI). Preformed biofilms (48 h) were treated with different concentrations of the nanocarrier (24 h) and quantified by colony-forming units (CFUs), total biomass and metabolic activity. For cytotoxicity, the viability of L929 cells was evaluated by MTT assay after 24 and 48 h of exposure to the nanocarrier. Data were submitted to ANOVA and Fisher LSD or Tukey post-hoc tests (α = 0.05). RESULTS MIC and FICI results showed an indifferent interaction among the components of the nanocarrier for all strains evaluated. CHX alone and nanocarrier containing 156 μg/mL CHX did not differ from each other in reducing the number of CFUs. However, the nanocarrier containing 156 μg/mL CHX promoted the highest reductions in total biofilm biomass and metabolism, surpassing the effect of CHX alone. After 24 and 48 h of exposure, the nanocarrier reduced CHX toxicity to the L929 cell at low concentrations. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that the CHX nanocarrier has potential to be used in the control of oral diseases associated with C. glabrata and E. faecalis. CLINICAL RELEVANCE CHX has improved the antibiofilm effect and reduced the cytotoxicity (at low concentrations) when conjugated to CS-coated IONPs. This new colloidal formulation has potential as an alternative antimicrobial agent to pure CHX for the control of biofilm-related oral diseases, such as oral candidiasis and endodontic infections.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the incidence and magnitude of bacteremia after dental extraction and supragingival scaling. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Blood samples were taken before and 5 and 30 min after dental extraction and supragingival scaling from individuals at high (n = 44) or negligible risk (n = 51) for infective endocarditis. The former received prophylactic antibiotic therapy. Samples were subjected to aerobic and anaerobic culture and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction to determine the incidence of bacteremia and total bacterial levels. RESULTS Patients who did not receive prophylactic antibiotic therapy had a higher incidence of positive blood cultures (30% 5 min after extraction) than patients who received prophylactic antibiotic therapy (0% 5 min after extraction; p < .01). Molecular analysis did not reveal significant differences in the incidence or magnitude of bacteremia between the two patient groups either 5 or 30 min after each of the procedures evaluated. Extraction was associated with higher incidence of bacteremia than supragingival scaling by blood culture (p = .03) and molecular analysis (p = .05). CONCLUSIONS Molecular methods revealed that dental extraction and supragingival scaling were associated with similar incidence of bacteremia in groups receiving or not prophylactic antibiotic therapy. However, blood culture revealed that antibiotic therapy reduced viable cultivable bacteria in the bloodstream in the extraction group.

Abstract
Oral health is of particular importance in patients with heart valve diseases because of the risk of infective endocarditis. Recommendations for antibiotic prophylaxis before dental procedures have been restricted, but the modalities of oral evaluation and dental care are not detailed in guidelines. Therefore, a multidisciplinary working group reviewed the literature to propose detailed approaches for the evaluation and management of buccodental status in patients with valvular disease. Simple questions asked by a non-dental specialist may draw attention to buccodental diseases. Besides clinical examination, recent imaging techniques are highly sensitive for the detection of inflammatory bone destruction directly related to oral or dental infection foci. The management of buccodental disease before cardiac valvular surgery should be adapted to the timing of the intervention. Simple therapeutic principles can be applied even before urgent intervention. Restorative dentistry and endodontic and periodontal therapy can be performed before elective valvular intervention and during the follow-up of patients at high risk of endocarditis. The detection and treatment of buccodental foci of infection should follow specific rules in patients who present with acute endocarditis. Implant placement is no longer contraindicated in patients at intermediate risk of endocarditis, and can also be performed in selected high-risk patients. The decision for implant placement should follow an analysis of general and local factors increasing the risk of implant failure. The surgical and prosthetic procedures should be performed in optimal safety conditions. It is therefore now possible to safely decrease the number of contraindicated dental procedures in patients at risk of endocarditis.
