Bone loss resulting from periodontal disease can precipitate spontaneous tooth migration. Teeth repositioned by orthodontic means are frequently inherently unstable and may need to be permanently retained by some form of splint. A new technique for permanent anterior splinting is described.

In these studies we have attempted to show that cell surface structures are critical antigens for protection against P. gingivalis-induced periodontal destruction. Fimbrillin, and in particular a synthetic 20-amino-acid fimbrillin peptide, exerts a protective effect in gnotobiotic rats, thus identifying them as potentially useful in the development of a vaccine.
