New study provides promising results for metformin in periodontitis

Periodontitis, a prevalent global health concern, results in the gradual destruction of tooth-supporting tissues and is often exacerbated by oxidative stress conditions and bacterial changes. Current treatment methodologies include mechanical debridement, anti-inflammatory drugs, and regenerative surgery. The researchpublished in the journal of Genes & Diseases, conducted detailed examinations on cellular interactions with Metformin, investigating its […]
