INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES FOR EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF PERIODONTAL DISEASES
Abstract
Early diagnosis of periodontal diseases, such as gingivitis and periodontitis, is crucial for preventing irreversible tissue destruction and tooth loss. Traditional clinical methods—including probing depth measurement and radiographic imaging—often detect the disease only after significant damage has occurred. Recent advances in bioengineering and molecular diagnostics have enabled a paradigm shift toward minimally invasive, real-time, point-of-care detection. Key innovations include salivary biomarkers, lab-on-a-chip biosensors, wearable electrochemical devices, and artificial intelligence–driven analytics. For example, microRNA-based detection platforms such as nanopore sensors can measure periodontitis-associated miRNAs in saliva with high sensitivity. These cutting-edge technologies enable early, non‑invasive screening, personalized risk stratification, and better monitoring of therapeutic response in precision periodontology. As these diagnostic tools mature and integrate into clinical workflows, they have the potential to transform periodontal care and improve long-term oral health outcomes.
