Over the past decades obesity has been increasing worldwide and represents a major risk factor for many chronic diseases. Meta-analyses have demonstrated that obesity is also associated with periodontitis, a bacteria-induced inflammatory disease of the tooth-supporting tissues. Obesity is characterized by excess adipose tissue, which secrets bioactive molecules called adipokines. Although…
With a high success ratio observed by the use of implants (97%), the development of new alloys and surface treatments has been the main objective in the Implantology research area. Periodontal tissue responses towards these modifications are determinant for implant integration with the human body. The proposition of this study is characterize a new titanium-molybdenum alloy with different…
Several studies have been conducted to understand distinctly the effects of periodontal diseases and of orthodontic movements on the periodontal tissues. But the effects of both processes presented together have not been fully elucidated. The aim of these in vitro and in vivo studies is to investigate the interactions of microbial and biomechanical signals on models that mimic the influe…

Osteoporosis is an osteometabolic disease, characterized by a reduction in bone mass in long bones and vertebrae, which occurs due to a decrease in estrogen levels, especially in postmenopausal women. Recently, a new drug based on an anti-sclerostin antibody (Scl-Ab) was approved for postmenopausal osteoporosis treatment. Its mechanism of action corresponds to an increase in the activity …
With the technical, scientific, and industrial advancement, the variety of surface characteristics and possibilities for the surface treatment of titanium opens an opportunity to improve its biological performance. Accelerating the osseointegration process has been investigated, in an attempt to shorten the installation of the final prosthesis and extend the longevity of rehabilitation tr…
The aim of this research project is to evaluate in vivo and in vitro the effect of obesity on periodontal tissue remodeling induced by mechanical orthodontic force. For the in vivo study, the samples collected in the student Master's research (2016/00732- 0) will be used. Proteomics analysis of the animals periodontal ligament induced by orthodontic movement and submitted or not to obesit…
Studies have been conducted to better understand the effects of periodontal disease on periodontal tissues. However, there is no consensus in the literature about these effects on the periodontal tissues of obese individuals. The objective of the present study is to evaluate in vivo the effect of obesity on the progression of periodontal disease. A total of 40 rats were distributed in 4 e…
Surface treatments, development of new alloys and functionalization of the surfaces of implants with bioactive elements have been objectives of recent studies in the area of Dentistry aiming to contribute to the osseointegration process. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the physicochemical and biological characteristics of 15 molybdenum titanium disks subjected to the chemical-hyd…
Connective tissue destruction in periodontal diseases can potentially involve the action of several types of host-derived proteinases. Among them, the cysteine proteinases, especially cathepsins, have the ability to degrade many extracellular matrix components, mainly collagen. The cysteine proteinase is also known to play an important role in the beginning and progression of immune-infla…

Surface treatments, development of new alloys and functionalization of implant surfaces with bioactive elements have been the objective of recent studies in the area of implant dentistry aiming to contribute to the process of osseointegration. The functionalization of the titanium surface with strontium can be performed by different methods. The purpose of this study is to compare, in vit…
Additive manufacturing is currently receiving significant attention in the field of tissue engineering and biomaterial science. The development of precise, affordable 3-dimensionally printing technologies has provided a new platform for novel research to be undertaken in 3D scaffold design and fabrication. Thus, the aim of this study will be to evaluate porcine bone marrow-derived progeni…
Many studies have been conducted to better understand the effects of periodontal disease and orthodontic tooth movement on periodontal tissues. However, the scientific literature shows no studies that assess these effects in periodontal tissues during obesity. The aim of this research project is to evaluate the effect of biomechanical force in the progression of periodontal disease in nor…
