Advances in Periodontal and Peri-Implant Tissues Health Management: 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

It is a pleasure to invite you to submit manuscripts to the forthcoming Special Issue “Advances in Periodontal and Peri-Implant Tissues Health Management: 2nd Edition” that will be published in Dentistry Journal.

Periodontal and peri-implant diseases constitute an important public health problem, most often under-acknowledged and implicated with general health, oral health-related quality of life and socioeconomic burden, thus enhancing the prevention of periodontitis and peri-implantitis onset and progression should be considered crucial. Moreover, due to the interconnections between periodontal, peri-implant and general health status, principally relying on inflammatory response, periodontal immune-microbiome balance and neurobiological and genetic factors, subjects considered high risk for periodontitis and peri-implantitis development, as well as periodontal patients more prone to the onset or worsening of systemic disorders, should be regarded with caution in multi-disciplinary settings, improving interprofessional communication and collaboration.

Original studies, from basic to clinical research, as well as reviews, case series, case reports and short communications, that provide deeper insights into the etiopathogenesis, the putative interconnections with systemic diseases and neoplasms of such complex disorders and the possible mechanisms underlying aggressive, recurrent and refractory cases, potentially paving the way for innovative primary prevention strategies and therapeutic approaches in regards to more comprehensive and integrated management of periodontal and peri-implant diseases, with high-quality precision on a large scale and with personalized periodontal care for high-risk subjects, will be welcome.
