Effect of a Whole-Food Plant-Based Diet on Periodontal Parameters in Patients With Cardiovascular Risk Factors: A Secondary Sub-Analysis of a Randomized Clinical Trial

A trend towards stabilization of the inflammatory parameters [bleeding on probing (BOP), periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA)] was observed in the whole-food plant-based diet (WPBD) group. Because of the non-significant changes within the groups, this study highlights the imperative for future studies.

D-mannose alleviates chronic periodontitis in rats by regulating the functions of neutrophils

D-mannose can alleviate chronic periodontitis in rats by regulating the functions of neutrophils, potentially associated with the expression of translocation 2 (TET2) and glycolysis, providing new insights into the potential application of D-mannose to chronic periodontitis.

Association between oral condition and subjective psychological well-being among older adults attending a university hospital dental clinic: A cross-sectional study

Structural Equation Modeling revealed that oral condition was positively correlated with nutritional status, and nutritional status was positively correlated with the World Health Organization-5 Well-Being Index. These findings suggest that oral condition may influence subjective well-being via nutritional status or social environmental factors.

A Diet Rich in Saturated Fat and Cholesterol Aggravates the Effect of Bacterial Lipopolysaccharide on Alveolar Bone Loss in a Rabbit Model of Periodontal Disease

Results suggest that certain dietary habits can exacerbate some aspects of periodontitis and that bad periodontal health can contribute to dyslipidemia and promote non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) progression, but only under certain conditions.
