Comparative evaluation of serum cotinine levels in chronic periodontitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Conclusions: The result of this study indicates that increased smoking with COPD causes a higher chance of progression of periodontal destruction but it is not statistically significant. Furthermore, this study indicates that the assessment of serum cotinine levels is a reliable method to evaluate smoking exposure. (Source: Journal of Indian Society of Periodontology)

Expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in gingival tissue biopsy in patients with slowly/moderately and rapidly progressing periodontitis: An observational study
Conclusion: The levels of aMMP-9 and lMMP-9 were increased in both the types of periodontitis when compared with periodontally healthy individuals. A significant correlation was found between PPD and activities of aMMP-9 in slowly/moderately progressing periodontitis patients. However, further studies are required to confirm these findings.

Minimal influence of chronic inflammation on the potency and differentiation characteristics of gingiva-derived mesenchymal stem cells-An in vitro study
Conclusion: The findings showed that the inflammatory environment might have a stimulatory effect on the growth kinetics and ability of colony formation in GMSCs. However, varied osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation was observed between H-GMSCs and I-GMSCs. (Source: Journal of Indian Society of Periodontology)

Piezosurgical corticotomy for rapid orthodontic tooth movement & #8211; A case series
S Swarna Meenakshi, Sankari MalaiappanJournal of Indian Society of Periodontology 2021 25(4):360-364 Prolonged treatment duration is one of the main concerns of patients undergoing orthodontic treatment. In addition to the longer duration, there are several drawbacks such as increased predisposition to root resorption, caries, and gingival recession. Thus, clinicians are always on the lookout for better solutions or alternatives. This is where the technique of corticotomy came in. In the present study, two cases where a piezosurgical corticotomy was done for rapid tooth movement have been discussed. The entire treatment d...

Modified laser-assisted lip repositioning surgery to treat gummy smile
Sana Farista, Aditi Chaudhary, Balaji Manohar, Shanin Farista, Rufi BhayaniJournal of Indian Society of Periodontology 2021 25(4):355-359 Excessive gingival display (EGD), known as “gummy smile,” is a major esthetic hurdle in today's population. The condition occurs due to various etiologies such as skeletal, dentoalveolar, or soft-tissue origin. The treatment modalities range from orthognathic surgery to periodontal plastic procedures. Lip-repositioning surgery (LRS) is a better alternative for the conventional orthognathic surgery and laser-assisted LRS can be a reliable and a less i...

Self-correction of pathologic tooth migration after nonsurgical periodontal treatment in a metabolic syndrome patient with severe periodontitis and drug-influenced gingival enlargement
Hsin-Che Lee, Chao-Nan Wu, Kuo YuanJournal of Indian Society of Periodontology 2021 25(4):350-354 Drug-influenced gingival enlargement (DIGE) and reduced bone support caused by periodontitis are two of the etiologic factors for pathologic tooth migration (PTM). Comprehensive management, including surgical, orthodontic, and prosthodontic treatment, is usually required for recovery from severe DIGE and PTM. An 85-year-old Taiwanese male with a history of hypertension and uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (DM) visited our dental department for severe gingival enlargement and spontaneous bleeding. He was diagnosed as having adva...

Comparison of clinical efficacy of diode laser and erbium, chromium: Yttrium, scandium, gallium, and garnet for implant stage 2 recovery procedure & #8211; A randomized control clinical study
Conclusion: Considering the advantages of both these laser systems such as less anesthesia, less surgical trauma and faster healing, and post-operative comfort, lasers are an effective tool for implant stage two recovery techniques. However, since diode lasers are more cost effective when compared to Er, Cr:YSGG, diode lasers may meet the clinical needs when compared to hard-tissue lasers.
