Abstract Aim Metronidazole (MTZ) is an antimicrobial agent used to treat anaerobic infections. It has been hypothesized that MTZ may also have anti-inflammatory properties, but the evidence is limited and has not been previously reviewed. Thus, this scoping review aimed to answer the following question: “What is the evidence supporting anti-inflammatory...
Abstract This study aimed to characterize the taxonomic composition of intraradicular multispecies biofilms (IMB) formed in situ in a model to reproduce clinical conditions. Twelve palatal roots of maxillary molars had its canals prepared. Two roots were randomly selected to sterility control. Ten intraoral prosthetic appliances with lateral slots...
Oral bacteria speak a sophisticated glycolanguage transmitted through versatile glycoinfrastructure, carbohydrate-active enzymes, and lectins, which contributes decisively to their success in the oral habitat. Deciphering this glycolanguage opens new avenues for novel antibacterials to treat oral diseases. Abstract The oral cavity harbors...
Abstract Background Considered the second largest and most diverse microbiome after the gut, the human oral ecosystem is complex with diverse and niche-specific microorganisms. Although evidence is growing for the importance of oral microbiome in supporting a healthy immune system and preventing local and systemic infections, the influence of craniomaxillofacial...
