Abstract

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that results in a chronic, systemic inflammatory disorder that principally attacks synovial joints. The pathology of the disease process often leads to the destruction of articular cartilage and the bone. Normal bone remodeling cycle requires the balance between bone resorption and bone deposition which is determined by the activities of two principle cell types, namely, osteoclasts and osteoblasts. Osteoblasts and osteoclasts, coupled together via cytokine mediated cell signaling. The dominance of pro-inflammatory cytokines in bone homeostasis leads to osteolysis. Many articles have been published about the pathobiochemical similarity between rheumatoid arthritis and periodontitis, whereas the role of the disease in bone regeneration and osseointegration is less proven. According to the international literature in rheumatoid arthritis, due to frequent periodontitis, decreased salivary secretion, medication, as well as a decrease in bone regenerative potential, rheumatoid arthritis is considered as relative contraindication in implantology. In daily practice, we face more frequently with rheumatoid arthritis which makes the topic so important in oral surgery and implantology. I...Continue Reading

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
