AB  - Objective: To evaluate an association between bone levels of inflammation/oxidative stress mediators and postoperative discomfort after third molar conventional or piezosurgery. Material and methods: Twenty-six subjects with bilaterally impacted mandibular third molars, who underwent either piezo or conventional surgery, were included in a split-mouth design study. MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) expression, interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) proteins, as well as superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in alveolar bone, were evaluated. Pain intensity, the first pain appearance, analgesic first use and total dose taken, trismus, and swelling were clinically recorded. Results: MiR-21 expression was higher while VEGF protein was lower in piezosurgery vs. conventional groups. The differences in IL-1β protein and SOD activity were not significant between groups. The pain intensity on the first day was significantly decreased in piezosurgery group. The first pain appearance and the first analgesic taken were reported sooner in conventional vs. piezosurgical group. Significantly pronounced trismus on the third day following conventional surgery was found. In conventional group, significantly increased trismus was observed on the third compared to the first postoperative day. MiR-21 showed significant correlation with the first pain appearance. Conclusion: Delayed onset of less pronounced postoperative pain after piezosurgical vs. conventional extraction of impacted lower third molar was significantly associated with expression of bone miR-21. Clinical relevance: Alveolar bone miR-21 may reflect surgical stress and is associated with third molar postoperative pain onset.

AB  - Objective: Leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) represents a natural, low-cost product which may promote tissue healing by mechanisms not fully elucidated. Diabetes mellitus (DM) disrupts bone healing by inducing inflammation and oxidative stress (OS), mechanisms regulated by microRNAs (miRs). The aim of the present study was to investigate the microRNA-21 (miR-21) involvement in diabetic bone regeneration using L-PRF alone or in combination with a standard grafting material. Design: After the induction of diabetes (alloxan 100 mg/kg), four cranial osteotomies were made in diabetic (n = 12) and non-diabetic (n = 12) rabbits: one was left empty and the remaining three were grafted with L-PRF, bovine hydroxyapatite (Bio-Oss®) and L-PRF + Bio-Oss®. Two and eight weeks postoperatively, the samples were harvested for miR-21 expression (Real-time RT-PCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay analyses. Results: Diabetic rabbits showed decreased miR-21 and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) protein expression while increased malondialdehyde (MDA) levels two weeks postoperatively; however, there were no significant differences in miR-21 and MMP-9 levels between diabetic and non-diabetic rabbits in samples taken eight weeks postoperatively. Application of L-PRF and L-PRF + Bio-Oss® improved miR-21 and MMP-9 and decreased MDA levels while Bio-Oss® alone enhanced superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity levels in diabetic rabbits. Conclusion: L-PRF alone or in combination with bovine hydroxyapatite as bone graft could be beneficial in DM since it seems to improve inflammation-modulatory miR-21 expression and decreases oxidative stress. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd

AB  - Aim: Recent studies point at the crucial role of epigenetic mechanisms in the development of multifactorial diseases such as periodontitis and diabetes mellitus (DM) type 2. In addition, circulatory microRNAs (miRs) have emerged as novel biomarkers for various diseases. Aim of this study was to investigate the levels of miR-146a and miR-155 and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of periodontitis patients with (CPDM) and without (CP) DM type 2 as well as in periodontally healthy, control groups (PHDM and PH, respectively). Material and methodsmiR modulation was analysed using quantitative real-time PCR while SOD activity was measured spectrophotometrically. ResultsThe upregulation of miR-146a and miR-155 was observed in CP and CPDM patients' baseline, while the levels decreased after 6weeks of the non-surgical therapy to the levels comparable to PH and PHDM, respectively. Expression levels of miRs positively correlated with SOD activity. Levels of miR-146a were higher in PHDM compared to PH patients. Multivariate analysis revealed that levels of miR-146a and miR-155 were significantly associated with periodontitis when adjusting for age and gender. ConclusionsmiR-146a and miR-155 may be considered as possible novel biomarkers for periodontitis in non-diabetic and type 2 diabetic patients.

AB  - Introduction: The outcome of periapical surgery has been directly improved with the introduction of novel material formulations. The aim of the study was to compare the retrograde obturation quality of the following materials: calcium silicate (Biodentine; Septodont, Saint-Maur-des-Fosses, France), mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA+; Cerkamed Company, Stalowa Wola, Poland), and glass ionomer cement (Fuji IX; GC Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). Methods: Materials' wettability was calculated concerning the contact angles of the cements measured using a glycerol drop. Cements' porosity was determined using mercury intrusion porosimetry and micro computed tomographic (mu CT) imaging. Extracted upper human incisors were retrofilled, and mu CT analysis was applied to calculate the volume of the gap between the retrograde filling material and root canal dentin. Experiments were performed before and after soaking the materials in simulated body fluid (SBF). Results: No statistically significant differences were found among the contact angles of the studied materials after being soaked in SBF. The material with the lowest nanoporosity (Fuji IX: 2.99% and 4.17% before and after SBF, respectively) showed the highest values of microporosity (4.2% and 3.1% before and after SBF, respectively). Biodentine had the lowest value of microporosity (1.2% and 0.8% before and after SBF, respectively) and the lowest value of microgap to the root canal wall ({[}10 +/- 30] x 10(-3) mm(3)). Conclusions: Biodentine and MTA possess certain advantages over Fuji IX for hermetic obturation of retrograde root canals. Biodentine shows a tendency toward the lowest marginal gap at the cement-to-dentin interface.

AB  - Background. The authors investigated morphologic parameters of the palatal cortex that affect the diffusion of local anesthetic solution in the region of the anterior middle superior alveolar (AMSA) nerve block injection site.   Methods. The authors used computed tomographic (CT) and micro-CT imaging to assess 20 human skulls from an anatomic collection. Analysis of the C1 images included frequency, distribution, and width of the nutrient canals in the bony palate, according to to the person's sex and age. Micro-CT analysis involved measuring the thickness and porosity of palatal cortical bone in the area of the AMSA injection site in relation to the thickness and porosity of the opposite buccal cortical bone.   Results. There was a statistically significant difference (P = .042) in the location of the nutrient canals between male specimens (> 50% in the border region) and female specimens (> 50% in the palatal process). Furthermore, the female skulls had significantly wider nutrient canal foramina (P = .042) than did the male skulls. Despite greater thickness, the palatal cortex in the area of the AMSA injection site had slightly greater porosity than did the buccal cortex. A significantly greater number of microcanals penetrated the whole cortical thickness in palatal than in buccal cortical bone (P = .001).   Conclusions. The distribution and width of nutrient canals differed between male and female skulls. At the microscopic level, structural characteristics of the palatal cortex provide a good anatomic basis for the potential of a satisfactory AMSA injection success rate.   Practical Implications. The AMSA technique success rate might be increased if the clinician adjusts the injection site to the distribution of nutrient canals, depending on the sex of the patient.
