WELCOME INVITATION

Dear Colleagues,

It is with great pleasure that I invite you to attend the 1st International Quintessence Symposium on Oral Health: The Oral-Systemic Connection in San Diego, February 7–8, 2014, at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina. This unique gathering will bring to-gether the most prominent clinicians and researchers on the subject of the oral-systemic connection.

Over the past several decades, an impressive body of knowledge has accumulated about the impact of oral infections on overall health and well-being. Studies have found im-portant associations that are now being evaluated for causative relationships. New infor-mation is being published at a rapid pace, and clinicians must sort through sometimes confl icting published fi ndings.

This symposium provides an opportunity for participants to hear the latest scientifi c in-formation on the associations between oral diseases and health and learn how to inter-pret claims made by scientists working on this subject.

I am confi dent that this symposium will bring clarity and understanding to a subject of utmost importance to all health care professionals. Not only will you benefi t from the knowledge gained from the gathered experts, but you will also be able to apply this knowledge for the benefi t of your patients.

I look forward to welcoming you to San Diego and the 1st International Quintessence Symposium on Oral Health: The Oral-Systemic Connection.

8:15 AM–9:00 AM

Causation, Correlation, Complexity, Confusion, and Oral HealthDonald M. Brunette, PhD

To establish causation, the cause and the effect should be connected through a biologically plau-sible mechanism. The definitive means of estab-lishing causation is through experimentation, such as randomized controlled clinical trials. But such trials are often not possible, and criteria for judging the strength of the evidence for causa-

tion from less rigorous study designs demonstrating associations consequently have evolved. The standard causal inference criteria include strength of the association, dose-response relationship, time sequence, consistency, specificity, biologic plausibility, and independence from confounders. Besides frequentist-based sta-tistical models, other ways of investigating relationships, such as Bayesian networks and complexity theory, have been developed. The output of sophisticated statistical analyses can be confusing even for scientists, so there is a need to consider how best to pres-ent such information. This presentation will discuss these concepts using examples from the dental literature and focusing on ques-tions dentists can use in assessing causal relationships, as well as methods of presenting their analysis in understandable terms to their patients.

9:00 AM–9:45 AM

The Role of Inflammation in Oral-Systemic InteractionsThomas E. Van Dyke, DDS, PhD

Recent studies have suggested a relationship be-tween oral infection, in particular periodontal disease, and systemic diseases that goes beyond simple associations. Epidemiologic studies have implicated periodontal disease as imparting ex-cess risk for the development of cardiovascular disease and stroke and as a risk factor for preterm

low–birth weight babies in pregnant women. In addition, studies in diabetics have revealed that untreated periodontal disease can lead to diabetic complications and have a direct impact on glyce-mic control in diabetic patients. The available evidence associat-ing periodontal disease with risk for systemic disease centers on the role of bacteria from the oral cavity and bacteremia but always in the context of initiation or amplification of local and systemic inflammation. The role of inflammation in cardiovascular disease, pregnancy complications, obesity, and diabetes, particularly type 2, is well documented. The role of periodontal inflammation as a local, extravascular source of inflammation that has significant im-pact on systemic inflammation and inflammatory disease is begin-ning to be understood. This presentation will provide an overview of current concepts in local infection and inflammation as modi-fiers of systemic disease.

10:15 AM–11:00 AM

The Oral Microbiome and Systemic HealthWenche S. Borgnakke, DDS, MPH, PhD

Collectively, the microorganisms in the oral cavity have been referred to as the oral microflora, oral microbiota, or, more recently, the oral microbiome. Our understanding of the human oral microbi-ome is in a revolutionary phase of development to the point of science having to rethink and re-write most of what was hitherto known. High-

throughput genetic-based assays and powerful, novel bioinfor-matics tools recently made it possible to comprehensively survey the human oral microbiome to identify and determine the preva-lence of previously unknown or not culturable organisms. The abil-ity to fully describe the microbiome that inhabits the human body, including the oral microbiome, suggests a need to restudy these flora and their relationships with health and disease. With these new methods, the role of the oral microbiome in periodontal dis-ease and in diseases and conditions associated with periodontal disease is currently being studied. Evidence will be presented for systemic diseases and conditions that implicate oral organisms.

11:00 AM–11:45 AM

The Cardiovascular System and Oral InfectionsMaurizio Tonetti, DMD, PhD, MMSc

Periodontitis and atherosclerotic cardiovascu-lar disease are highly prevalent, socially relevant chronic diseases. Epidemiologic evidence has linked these two diseases, although the nature of the association remains a matter of debate. Is it due to shared risk factors, or is there a true causal link? Intervention trials provide an initial reading

light. Under both scenarios, there are important clinical conse-quences and reasonable action that needs to be implemented by oral health care professionals. These concepts and their practical implications will be explored.

11:45 AM–12:30 PM

Obesity and Oral HealthIra B. Lamster, DDS, MMSc

There is an epidemic of obesity in the United States and across the globe. It has been estimated that 1 in 4 adults is overweight and 1 in 10 is obese. Obe-sity is associated with a variety of significant health problems, including an increased risk of type 2 dia-betes, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases, and certain malignancies. Obesity has also been

linked to a number of changes in the oral cavity. Obesity has been investigated as a risk factor for periodontitis. Obesity is also a cause of obstructive sleep apnea, a condition associated with abnormal pauses in breathing. In the future, dental professionals can have a role in the general management of obesity by identifying patients who are overweight or obese, referring them to a health care pro-vider for comprehensive care, and then becoming involved in the longer-term management of these individuals.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABSTRACTS

2:00 PM–2:45 PM

The Association of Periodontal Disease and DiabetesRobert J. Genco, DDS, PhD

Periodontal disease is an infectious complica-tion of diabetes. People with diabetes, especially those with poor glycemic control, are two to three times more likely than those without diabetes to have periodontal disease. Diabetes likely increases susceptibility to periodontal disease by impairing wound healing. Diabetes also leads to a hyperin-

flammatory state, which exaggerates periodontal tissue destruc-tion. It is, however, a two-way street in that diabetes is a risk factor for periodontal disease, and periodontal disease makes diabetes glycemic control worse. Patients with diabetes and periodontal disease also suffer from higher mortality and morbidity from heart and kidney disease. Periodontal treatment in patients with diabe-tes contributes to better glycemic control and helps to preserve a functioning dentition, which allows individuals to maintain a diet higher in fiber and lower in fats and refined carbohydrates. Such a diet is also beneficial to the long-term management of patients with diabetes.

2:45 PM–3:30 PM

Pregnancy Outcomes and Oral InfectionsPanos N. Papapanou, DDS, PhD

For the past two decades, the link between peri-odontal diseases and adverse pregnancy out-comes has been extensively studied in both animalmodels and observational and experimental inter-vention trials. Although uncertainties still remain, patients need to be informed and provided with care according to the best available evidence. This

presentation will explore the scientific rationale, discuss current epidemiologic data, and address results from intervention studies in order to provide oral health care professionals with an under-standing of the association between oral infections and pregnan-cy outcomes.

8:15 AM–9:00 AM

Links between the Oral Microbiota and Pulmonary DiseaseFrank A. Scannapieco, DDS

Associations between poor oral health and pul-monary diseases are possible through a variety of mechanisms. This presentation will provide an overview of the latest information on the problems of aspiration pneumonia and nosoco-mial-acquired pneumonia, especially ventilator- associated pneumonia (VAP). Both infections lead

to serious consequences for morbidity and mortality in institution-al settings. Results from a recent randomized trial that tested the effects of the oral topical antimicrobia chlorhexidine on the oral flora of ventilated patients will be presented. Biologic mechanisms involving the oral microflora and host response that influence pneumonia will be discussed. Practical advice on how to translate this information into everyday practice will be presented.

9:00 AM–9:45 AM

Osteoporosis: The Oral-Systemic ConnectionRobert E. Marx, DDS

Osteoporosis is an age- and hormone-related thinning of the cancellous trabeculae and cortex, which structurally weakens bone at varying de-grees and thus makes it more prone to fracture. Osteoporosis involving the jaws causes a thinning of their bony trabeculae and cortex, just as it does in other bones; this is often referred to as type III

or type IV bone. It is much more difficult to gain primary stability during implant placement, and there is reduced osseointegration potential. However, the greatest impact of osteoporosis on the jaws is a condition now known as drug-induced osteonecrosis of the jaws (DIONJ). All oral and intravenous bisphosphonates marketed for osteoporosis, as well as oral denosumab, have caused DIONJ. Yet, alendronate (Fosamax) because of its potency and a recom-mended dose that is twice that of other oral bisphosphonates, has been responsible for more than 90% of all reported cases and has even caused femur fractures. It is the osteoporosis drug of greatest oral impact.

10:15 AM–11:00 AM

Fusobacterium nucleatum: A Model Organism for Investigating the Mechanisms of Oral Bacteria in Extraoral InfectionsYiping W. Han, PhD

Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn), a heterogeneous gram-negative anaerobe, is ubiquitous in the oral cavity and associated with various forms of peri-odontal diseases. It is infrequently found in the normal floras elsewhere in the body but highly prevalent in the diseased microbiota, having been isolated from infections and abscesses in the liver,

spleen, lungs, blood, brain, and intrauterine cavities. Recently, Fn has been recognized as an emerging gut pathogen associat-ed with inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer. Is Fn merely associated with these diseases, or does it play a causative

ABSTRACTS

role? We have previously demonstrated the mechanisms by which oral Fn cause intrauterine infection leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes. We have recently started to investigate the role of Fn in colorectal carcinoma. Fn promotes carcinogenesis both in vitro and in vivo. A specific virulence determinant and its interaction with the host have been identified. The details of this investigation will be discussed.

11:00 AM–11:45 AM

Oral Complications in Immunocompromised Patients: The Oncology PrototypeDouglas E. Peterson, DMD, PhD, FDS RCSEd

Oral complications in immunocompromised pa-tients can result in clinically impactful sequelae, in-cluding compromised quality of life as well as de-creased patient survival in select cases. In addition, the oral lesions can be expensive to manage, re-sulting in increased use of typically limited health care resources. This presentation will address the

state-of-the-science of this field, focusing on the myelosuppressed oncology patient as the prototype. Evidence-based strategies for prevention and management of oral disease caused by high-dose as well as emerging molecularly targeted cancer therapies will be discussed. Acute toxicities, including oral mucosal injury, pain, and infection, will be emphasized in relation to the complex interface of the oral cavity with overall systemic status. The presentation will highlight novel basic, translational, and clinical research that could lead to transformational strategies for oncology patient manage-ment in the future. The discussion will also compare and contrast the cancer patient prototype with other relevant models of immu-nocompromised patients, including those with AIDS.

11:45 AM–12:30 PM

Oral Manifestations of Systemic DiseasesSook-Bin Woo, DMD, MMSc

The general dentist in his or her daily practice en-counters a variety of mucosal disorders, most of which are straightforward and easy to diagnose. However, even banal-appearing lesions may be a manifestation of systemic disease or a side effect of treatment for systemic disease. Furthermore, the oral signs may be the first presentation, and

the dentist is in a unique position to help render an early diagno-sis. This presentation will consider six common oral conditions that are encountered in routine general dental practice. For each, there will be a common “default” diagnosis, followed by a discussion of other conditions that may look similar but represent the oral presentation of a systemic condition. The differences in history and clinical findings, as well as diagnostic tests that may help dis-tinguish between each of them, will also be presented. The con-ditions to be discussed include aphthous-like oral ulcers, lichen planus and lichenoid lesions, gingivitis, gingival hyperplasia, pig-mented macules, and nonhealing extraction sockets.

2:00 PM–2:45 PM

Salivary Biomarkers for Oral and Systemic DiseasesDavid T. Wong, DMD

Saliva has long been considered a “mirror of the body” that reflects the state of overall health. A wide range of systemic diseases, such as diabetes and Sjögren syndrome, have oral manifestations that clinicians (physicians and dentists) encounter in patients at various stages of disease develop-ment. Advances in the science of salivary diagnos-

tics have led to identification of disease signatures of candidate biomarkers and/or confirmation of genetic susceptibility for sys-temic conditions, particularly in molecular oncology. Development of the salivary proteome, transcriptome, micro-RNA, metabolome, and microbiome as diagnostic alphabets fully enables saliva to be translated for personalized individual medicine applications. Sali-vary biomarker panels have been developed for oral cancer, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, and ovarian cancer. Cou-pled with the development of point-of-care technologies and the emerging trend of chairside screening for medical conditions, the clinical impact of scientifically credentialed salivary biomarkers for molecular oncology application will improve access to care, reduc-ing health disparities and impacting global health.

2:45 PM–3:30 PM

The Role of the Oral Health Care Professional in Overall Health and Well-BeingBarbara L. Greenberg, MSc, PhD

The role of prevention and the integration of health care providers across disciplines is a critical component of the recent health care reform era. Early identification of individuals at increased risk of developing diseases of increasing significance, such as coronary heart disease and diabetes mel-litus, through point-of-care testing in a dental set-

ting could be a significant component of any prevention-oriented health care initiative. Early detection and, consequently, interven-tion could prevent the onset or control the severity of disease and improve health care delivery. Involving oral health care pro-fessionals in strategies to identify individuals at increased risk for coronary heart disease and diabetes can be an effective means of expanding preventive efforts aimed at slowing the development of these diseases and provide a portal into the general health care system for individuals who are not routinely engaged with a pri-mary care provider. This session will provide updated information on the epidemiology of the diseases, recommended and validated available diagnostic screening tests, use of the screening tests, in-terpretation of the test results, and approaches to discussing test results with patients and making referrals to a physician.

8:15 AM–9:00 AM

Causation, Correlation, Complexity, Confusion, and Oral HealthDonald M. Brunette, PhD

To establish causation, the cause and the effect should be connected through a biologically plau-sible mechanism. The definitive means of estab-lishing causation is through experimentation, such as randomized controlled clinical trials. But such trials are often not possible, and criteria for judging the strength of the evidence for causa-

tion from less rigorous study designs demonstrating associations consequently have evolved. The standard causal inference criteria include strength of the association, dose-response relationship, time sequence, consistency, specificity, biologic plausibility, and independence from confounders. Besides frequentist-based sta-tistical models, other ways of investigating relationships, such as Bayesian networks and complexity theory, have been developed. The output of sophisticated statistical analyses can be confusing even for scientists, so there is a need to consider how best to pres-ent such information. This presentation will discuss these concepts using examples from the dental literature and focusing on ques-tions dentists can use in assessing causal relationships, as well as methods of presenting their analysis in understandable terms to their patients.

9:00 AM–9:45 AM

The Role of Inflammation in Oral-Systemic InteractionsThomas E. Van Dyke, DDS, PhD

Recent studies have suggested a relationship be-tween oral infection, in particular periodontal disease, and systemic diseases that goes beyond simple associations. Epidemiologic studies have implicated periodontal disease as imparting ex-cess risk for the development of cardiovascular disease and stroke and as a risk factor for preterm

low–birth weight babies in pregnant women. In addition, studies in diabetics have revealed that untreated periodontal disease can lead to diabetic complications and have a direct impact on glyce-mic control in diabetic patients. The available evidence associat-ing periodontal disease with risk for systemic disease centers on the role of bacteria from the oral cavity and bacteremia but always in the context of initiation or amplification of local and systemic inflammation. The role of inflammation in cardiovascular disease, pregnancy complications, obesity, and diabetes, particularly type 2, is well documented. The role of periodontal inflammation as a local, extravascular source of inflammation that has significant im-pact on systemic inflammation and inflammatory disease is begin-ning to be understood. This presentation will provide an overview of current concepts in local infection and inflammation as modi-fiers of systemic disease.

10:15 AM–11:00 AM

The Oral Microbiome and Systemic HealthWenche S. Borgnakke, DDS, MPH, PhD

Collectively, the microorganisms in the oral cavity have been referred to as the oral microflora, oral microbiota, or, more recently, the oral microbiome. Our understanding of the human oral microbi-ome is in a revolutionary phase of development to the point of science having to rethink and re-write most of what was hitherto known. High-

throughput genetic-based assays and powerful, novel bioinfor-matics tools recently made it possible to comprehensively survey the human oral microbiome to identify and determine the preva-lence of previously unknown or not culturable organisms. The abil-ity to fully describe the microbiome that inhabits the human body, including the oral microbiome, suggests a need to restudy these flora and their relationships with health and disease. With these new methods, the role of the oral microbiome in periodontal dis-ease and in diseases and conditions associated with periodontal disease is currently being studied. Evidence will be presented for systemic diseases and conditions that implicate oral organisms.

11:00 AM–11:45 AM

The Cardiovascular System and Oral InfectionsMaurizio Tonetti, DMD, PhD, MMSc

Periodontitis and atherosclerotic cardiovascu-lar disease are highly prevalent, socially relevant chronic diseases. Epidemiologic evidence has linked these two diseases, although the nature of the association remains a matter of debate. Is it due to shared risk factors, or is there a true causal link? Intervention trials provide an initial reading

light. Under both scenarios, there are important clinical conse-quences and reasonable action that needs to be implemented by oral health care professionals. These concepts and their practical implications will be explored.

11:45 AM–12:30 PM

Obesity and Oral HealthIra B. Lamster, DDS, MMSc

There is an epidemic of obesity in the United States and across the globe. It has been estimated that 1 in 4 adults is overweight and 1 in 10 is obese. Obe-sity is associated with a variety of significant health problems, including an increased risk of type 2 dia-betes, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases, and certain malignancies. Obesity has also been

linked to a number of changes in the oral cavity. Obesity has been investigated as a risk factor for periodontitis. Obesity is also a cause of obstructive sleep apnea, a condition associated with abnormal pauses in breathing. In the future, dental professionals can have a role in the general management of obesity by identifying patients who are overweight or obese, referring them to a health care pro-vider for comprehensive care, and then becoming involved in the longer-term management of these individuals.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABSTRACTS

2:00 PM–2:45 PM

The Association of Periodontal Disease and DiabetesRobert J. Genco, DDS, PhD

Periodontal disease is an infectious complica-tion of diabetes. People with diabetes, especially those with poor glycemic control, are two to three times more likely than those without diabetes to have periodontal disease. Diabetes likely increases susceptibility to periodontal disease by impairing wound healing. Diabetes also leads to a hyperin-

flammatory state, which exaggerates periodontal tissue destruc-tion. It is, however, a two-way street in that diabetes is a risk factor for periodontal disease, and periodontal disease makes diabetes glycemic control worse. Patients with diabetes and periodontal disease also suffer from higher mortality and morbidity from heart and kidney disease. Periodontal treatment in patients with diabe-tes contributes to better glycemic control and helps to preserve a functioning dentition, which allows individuals to maintain a diet higher in fiber and lower in fats and refined carbohydrates. Such a diet is also beneficial to the long-term management of patients with diabetes.

2:45 PM–3:30 PM

Pregnancy Outcomes and Oral InfectionsPanos N. Papapanou, DDS, PhD

For the past two decades, the link between peri-odontal diseases and adverse pregnancy out-comes has been extensively studied in both animalmodels and observational and experimental inter-vention trials. Although uncertainties still remain, patients need to be informed and provided with care according to the best available evidence. This

presentation will explore the scientific rationale, discuss current epidemiologic data, and address results from intervention studies in order to provide oral health care professionals with an under-standing of the association between oral infections and pregnan-cy outcomes.

8:15 AM–9:00 AM

Links between the Oral Microbiota and Pulmonary DiseaseFrank A. Scannapieco, DDS

Associations between poor oral health and pul-monary diseases are possible through a variety of mechanisms. This presentation will provide an overview of the latest information on the problems of aspiration pneumonia and nosoco-mial-acquired pneumonia, especially ventilator- associated pneumonia (VAP). Both infections lead

to serious consequences for morbidity and mortality in institution-al settings. Results from a recent randomized trial that tested the effects of the oral topical antimicrobia chlorhexidine on the oral flora of ventilated patients will be presented. Biologic mechanisms involving the oral microflora and host response that influence pneumonia will be discussed. Practical advice on how to translate this information into everyday practice will be presented.

9:00 AM–9:45 AM

Osteoporosis: The Oral-Systemic ConnectionRobert E. Marx, DDS

Osteoporosis is an age- and hormone-related thinning of the cancellous trabeculae and cortex, which structurally weakens bone at varying de-grees and thus makes it more prone to fracture. Osteoporosis involving the jaws causes a thinning of their bony trabeculae and cortex, just as it does in other bones; this is often referred to as type III

or type IV bone. It is much more difficult to gain primary stability during implant placement, and there is reduced osseointegration potential. However, the greatest impact of osteoporosis on the jaws is a condition now known as drug-induced osteonecrosis of the jaws (DIONJ). All oral and intravenous bisphosphonates marketed for osteoporosis, as well as oral denosumab, have caused DIONJ. Yet, alendronate (Fosamax) because of its potency and a recom-mended dose that is twice that of other oral bisphosphonates, has been responsible for more than 90% of all reported cases and has even caused femur fractures. It is the osteoporosis drug of greatest oral impact.

10:15 AM–11:00 AM

Fusobacterium nucleatum: A Model Organism for Investigating the Mechanisms of Oral Bacteria in Extraoral InfectionsYiping W. Han, PhD

Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn), a heterogeneous gram-negative anaerobe, is ubiquitous in the oral cavity and associated with various forms of peri-odontal diseases. It is infrequently found in the normal floras elsewhere in the body but highly prevalent in the diseased microbiota, having been isolated from infections and abscesses in the liver,

spleen, lungs, blood, brain, and intrauterine cavities. Recently, Fn has been recognized as an emerging gut pathogen associat-ed with inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer. Is Fn merely associated with these diseases, or does it play a causative

ABSTRACTS

role? We have previously demonstrated the mechanisms by which oral Fn cause intrauterine infection leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes. We have recently started to investigate the role of Fn in colorectal carcinoma. Fn promotes carcinogenesis both in vitro and in vivo. A specific virulence determinant and its interaction with the host have been identified. The details of this investigation will be discussed.

11:00 AM–11:45 AM

Oral Complications in Immunocompromised Patients: The Oncology PrototypeDouglas E. Peterson, DMD, PhD, FDS RCSEd

Oral complications in immunocompromised pa-tients can result in clinically impactful sequelae, in-cluding compromised quality of life as well as de-creased patient survival in select cases. In addition, the oral lesions can be expensive to manage, re-sulting in increased use of typically limited health care resources. This presentation will address the

state-of-the-science of this field, focusing on the myelosuppressed oncology patient as the prototype. Evidence-based strategies for prevention and management of oral disease caused by high-dose as well as emerging molecularly targeted cancer therapies will be discussed. Acute toxicities, including oral mucosal injury, pain, and infection, will be emphasized in relation to the complex interface of the oral cavity with overall systemic status. The presentation will highlight novel basic, translational, and clinical research that could lead to transformational strategies for oncology patient manage-ment in the future. The discussion will also compare and contrast the cancer patient prototype with other relevant models of immu-nocompromised patients, including those with AIDS.

11:45 AM–12:30 PM

Oral Manifestations of Systemic DiseasesSook-Bin Woo, DMD, MMSc

The general dentist in his or her daily practice en-counters a variety of mucosal disorders, most of which are straightforward and easy to diagnose. However, even banal-appearing lesions may be a manifestation of systemic disease or a side effect of treatment for systemic disease. Furthermore, the oral signs may be the first presentation, and

the dentist is in a unique position to help render an early diagno-sis. This presentation will consider six common oral conditions that are encountered in routine general dental practice. For each, there will be a common “default” diagnosis, followed by a discussion of other conditions that may look similar but represent the oral presentation of a systemic condition. The differences in history and clinical findings, as well as diagnostic tests that may help dis-tinguish between each of them, will also be presented. The con-ditions to be discussed include aphthous-like oral ulcers, lichen planus and lichenoid lesions, gingivitis, gingival hyperplasia, pig-mented macules, and nonhealing extraction sockets.

2:00 PM–2:45 PM

Salivary Biomarkers for Oral and Systemic DiseasesDavid T. Wong, DMD

Saliva has long been considered a “mirror of the body” that reflects the state of overall health. A wide range of systemic diseases, such as diabetes and Sjögren syndrome, have oral manifestations that clinicians (physicians and dentists) encounter in patients at various stages of disease develop-ment. Advances in the science of salivary diagnos-

tics have led to identification of disease signatures of candidate biomarkers and/or confirmation of genetic susceptibility for sys-temic conditions, particularly in molecular oncology. Development of the salivary proteome, transcriptome, micro-RNA, metabolome, and microbiome as diagnostic alphabets fully enables saliva to be translated for personalized individual medicine applications. Sali-vary biomarker panels have been developed for oral cancer, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, and ovarian cancer. Cou-pled with the development of point-of-care technologies and the emerging trend of chairside screening for medical conditions, the clinical impact of scientifically credentialed salivary biomarkers for molecular oncology application will improve access to care, reduc-ing health disparities and impacting global health.

2:45 PM–3:30 PM

The Role of the Oral Health Care Professional in Overall Health and Well-BeingBarbara L. Greenberg, MSc, PhD

The role of prevention and the integration of health care providers across disciplines is a critical component of the recent health care reform era. Early identification of individuals at increased risk of developing diseases of increasing significance, such as coronary heart disease and diabetes mel-litus, through point-of-care testing in a dental set-

ting could be a significant component of any prevention-oriented health care initiative. Early detection and, consequently, interven-tion could prevent the onset or control the severity of disease and improve health care delivery. Involving oral health care pro-fessionals in strategies to identify individuals at increased risk for coronary heart disease and diabetes can be an effective means of expanding preventive efforts aimed at slowing the development of these diseases and provide a portal into the general health care system for individuals who are not routinely engaged with a pri-mary care provider. This session will provide updated information on the epidemiology of the diseases, recommended and validated available diagnostic screening tests, use of the screening tests, in-terpretation of the test results, and approaches to discussing test results with patients and making referrals to a physician.

tics have led to identification of disease signatures of candidate biomarkers and/or confirmation of genetic susceptibility for sys-temic conditions, particularly in molecular oncology. Development of the salivary proteome, transcriptome, micro-RNA, metabolome, and microbiome as diagnostic alphabets fully enables saliva to be translated for personalized individual medicine applications. Sali-vary biomarker panels have been developed for oral cancer, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, and ovarian cancer. Cou-pled with the development of point-of-care technologies and the emerging trend of chairside screening for medical conditions, the clinical impact of scientifically credentialed salivary biomarkers for molecular oncology application will improve access to care, reduc-ing health disparities and impacting global health.

2:45 PM–3:30 PM

The Role of the Oral Health Care Professional in Overall Health and Well-BeingBarbara L. Greenberg, MSc, PhD

The role of prevention and the integration of health care providers across disciplines is a critical component of the recent health care reform era. Early identification of individuals at increased risk of developing diseases of increasing significance, such as coronary heart disease and diabetes mel-litus, through point-of-care testing in a dental set-

ting could be a significant component of any prevention-oriented health care initiative. Early detection and, consequently, interven-tion could prevent the onset or control the severity of disease and improve health care delivery. Involving oral health care pro-fessionals in strategies to identify individuals at increased risk for coronary heart disease and diabetes can be an effective means of expanding preventive efforts aimed at slowing the development of these diseases and provide a portal into the general health care system for individuals who are not routinely engaged with a pri-mary care provider. This session will provide updated information on the epidemiology of the diseases, recommended and validated available diagnostic screening tests, use of the screening tests, in-terpretation of the test results, and approaches to discussing test results with patients and making referrals to a physician.

8:15 AM–9:00 AM

Causation, Correlation, Complexity, Confusion, and Oral HealthDonald M. Brunette, PhD

To establish causation, the cause and the effect should be connected through a biologically plau-sible mechanism. The definitive means of estab-lishing causation is through experimentation, such as randomized controlled clinical trials. But such trials are often not possible, and criteria for judging the strength of the evidence for causa-

tion from less rigorous study designs demonstrating associations consequently have evolved. The standard causal inference criteria include strength of the association, dose-response relationship, time sequence, consistency, specificity, biologic plausibility, and independence from confounders. Besides frequentist-based sta-tistical models, other ways of investigating relationships, such as Bayesian networks and complexity theory, have been developed. The output of sophisticated statistical analyses can be confusing even for scientists, so there is a need to consider how best to pres-ent such information. This presentation will discuss these concepts using examples from the dental literature and focusing on ques-tions dentists can use in assessing causal relationships, as well as methods of presenting their analysis in understandable terms to their patients.

9:00 AM–9:45 AM

The Role of Inflammation in Oral-Systemic InteractionsThomas E. Van Dyke, DDS, PhD

Recent studies have suggested a relationship be-tween oral infection, in particular periodontal disease, and systemic diseases that goes beyond simple associations. Epidemiologic studies have implicated periodontal disease as imparting ex-cess risk for the development of cardiovascular disease and stroke and as a risk factor for preterm

low–birth weight babies in pregnant women. In addition, studies in diabetics have revealed that untreated periodontal disease can lead to diabetic complications and have a direct impact on glyce-mic control in diabetic patients. The available evidence associat-ing periodontal disease with risk for systemic disease centers on the role of bacteria from the oral cavity and bacteremia but always in the context of initiation or amplification of local and systemic inflammation. The role of inflammation in cardiovascular disease, pregnancy complications, obesity, and diabetes, particularly type 2, is well documented. The role of periodontal inflammation as a local, extravascular source of inflammation that has significant im-pact on systemic inflammation and inflammatory disease is begin-ning to be understood. This presentation will provide an overview of current concepts in local infection and inflammation as modi-fiers of systemic disease.

10:15 AM–11:00 AM

The Oral Microbiome and Systemic HealthWenche S. Borgnakke, DDS, MPH, PhD

Collectively, the microorganisms in the oral cavity have been referred to as the oral microflora, oral microbiota, or, more recently, the oral microbiome. Our understanding of the human oral microbi-ome is in a revolutionary phase of development to the point of science having to rethink and re-write most of what was hitherto known. High-

throughput genetic-based assays and powerful, novel bioinfor-matics tools recently made it possible to comprehensively survey the human oral microbiome to identify and determine the preva-lence of previously unknown or not culturable organisms. The abil-ity to fully describe the microbiome that inhabits the human body, including the oral microbiome, suggests a need to restudy these flora and their relationships with health and disease. With these new methods, the role of the oral microbiome in periodontal dis-ease and in diseases and conditions associated with periodontal disease is currently being studied. Evidence will be presented for systemic diseases and conditions that implicate oral organisms.

11:00 AM–11:45 AM

The Cardiovascular System and Oral InfectionsMaurizio Tonetti, DMD, PhD, MMSc

Periodontitis and atherosclerotic cardiovascu-lar disease are highly prevalent, socially relevant chronic diseases. Epidemiologic evidence has linked these two diseases, although the nature of the association remains a matter of debate. Is it due to shared risk factors, or is there a true causal link? Intervention trials provide an initial reading

light. Under both scenarios, there are important clinical conse-quences and reasonable action that needs to be implemented by oral health care professionals. These concepts and their practical implications will be explored.

11:45 AM–12:30 PM

Obesity and Oral HealthIra B. Lamster, DDS, MMSc

There is an epidemic of obesity in the United States and across the globe. It has been estimated that 1 in 4 adults is overweight and 1 in 10 is obese. Obe-sity is associated with a variety of significant health problems, including an increased risk of type 2 dia-betes, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases, and certain malignancies. Obesity has also been

linked to a number of changes in the oral cavity. Obesity has been investigated as a risk factor for periodontitis. Obesity is also a cause of obstructive sleep apnea, a condition associated with abnormal pauses in breathing. In the future, dental professionals can have a role in the general management of obesity by identifying patients who are overweight or obese, referring them to a health care pro-vider for comprehensive care, and then becoming involved in the longer-term management of these individuals.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABSTRACTS

2:00 PM–2:45 PM

The Association of Periodontal Disease and DiabetesRobert J. Genco, DDS, PhD

Periodontal disease is an infectious complica-tion of diabetes. People with diabetes, especially those with poor glycemic control, are two to three times more likely than those without diabetes to have periodontal disease. Diabetes likely increases susceptibility to periodontal disease by impairing wound healing. Diabetes also leads to a hyperin-

flammatory state, which exaggerates periodontal tissue destruc-tion. It is, however, a two-way street in that diabetes is a risk factor for periodontal disease, and periodontal disease makes diabetes glycemic control worse. Patients with diabetes and periodontal disease also suffer from higher mortality and morbidity from heart and kidney disease. Periodontal treatment in patients with diabe-tes contributes to better glycemic control and helps to preserve a functioning dentition, which allows individuals to maintain a diet higher in fiber and lower in fats and refined carbohydrates. Such a diet is also beneficial to the long-term management of patients with diabetes.

2:45 PM–3:30 PM

Pregnancy Outcomes and Oral InfectionsPanos N. Papapanou, DDS, PhD

For the past two decades, the link between peri-odontal diseases and adverse pregnancy out-comes has been extensively studied in both animalmodels and observational and experimental inter-vention trials. Although uncertainties still remain, patients need to be informed and provided with care according to the best available evidence. This

presentation will explore the scientific rationale, discuss current epidemiologic data, and address results from intervention studies in order to provide oral health care professionals with an under-standing of the association between oral infections and pregnan-cy outcomes.

8:15 AM–9:00 AM

Links between the Oral Microbiota and Pulmonary DiseaseFrank A. Scannapieco, DDS

Associations between poor oral health and pul-monary diseases are possible through a variety of mechanisms. This presentation will provide an overview of the latest information on the problems of aspiration pneumonia and nosoco-mial-acquired pneumonia, especially ventilator- associated pneumonia (VAP). Both infections lead

to serious consequences for morbidity and mortality in institution-al settings. Results from a recent randomized trial that tested the effects of the oral topical antimicrobia chlorhexidine on the oral flora of ventilated patients will be presented. Biologic mechanisms involving the oral microflora and host response that influence pneumonia will be discussed. Practical advice on how to translate this information into everyday practice will be presented.

9:00 AM–9:45 AM

Osteoporosis: The Oral-Systemic ConnectionRobert E. Marx, DDS

Osteoporosis is an age- and hormone-related thinning of the cancellous trabeculae and cortex, which structurally weakens bone at varying de-grees and thus makes it more prone to fracture. Osteoporosis involving the jaws causes a thinning of their bony trabeculae and cortex, just as it does in other bones; this is often referred to as type III

or type IV bone. It is much more difficult to gain primary stability during implant placement, and there is reduced osseointegration potential. However, the greatest impact of osteoporosis on the jaws is a condition now known as drug-induced osteonecrosis of the jaws (DIONJ). All oral and intravenous bisphosphonates marketed for osteoporosis, as well as oral denosumab, have caused DIONJ. Yet, alendronate (Fosamax) because of its potency and a recom-mended dose that is twice that of other oral bisphosphonates, has been responsible for more than 90% of all reported cases and has even caused femur fractures. It is the osteoporosis drug of greatest oral impact.

10:15 AM–11:00 AM

Fusobacterium nucleatum: A Model Organism for Investigating the Mechanisms of Oral Bacteria in Extraoral InfectionsYiping W. Han, PhD

Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn), a heterogeneous gram-negative anaerobe, is ubiquitous in the oral cavity and associated with various forms of peri-odontal diseases. It is infrequently found in the normal floras elsewhere in the body but highly prevalent in the diseased microbiota, having been isolated from infections and abscesses in the liver,

spleen, lungs, blood, brain, and intrauterine cavities. Recently, Fn has been recognized as an emerging gut pathogen associat-ed with inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer. Is Fn merely associated with these diseases, or does it play a causative

ABSTRACTS

role? We have previously demonstrated the mechanisms by which oral Fn cause intrauterine infection leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes. We have recently started to investigate the role of Fn in colorectal carcinoma. Fn promotes carcinogenesis both in vitro and in vivo. A specific virulence determinant and its interaction with the host have been identified. The details of this investigation will be discussed.

11:00 AM–11:45 AM

Oral Complications in Immunocompromised Patients: The Oncology PrototypeDouglas E. Peterson, DMD, PhD, FDS RCSEd

Oral complications in immunocompromised pa-tients can result in clinically impactful sequelae, in-cluding compromised quality of life as well as de-creased patient survival in select cases. In addition, the oral lesions can be expensive to manage, re-sulting in increased use of typically limited health care resources. This presentation will address the

state-of-the-science of this field, focusing on the myelosuppressed oncology patient as the prototype. Evidence-based strategies for prevention and management of oral disease caused by high-dose as well as emerging molecularly targeted cancer therapies will be discussed. Acute toxicities, including oral mucosal injury, pain, and infection, will be emphasized in relation to the complex interface of the oral cavity with overall systemic status. The presentation will highlight novel basic, translational, and clinical research that could lead to transformational strategies for oncology patient manage-ment in the future. The discussion will also compare and contrast the cancer patient prototype with other relevant models of immu-nocompromised patients, including those with AIDS.

11:45 AM–12:30 PM

Oral Manifestations of Systemic DiseasesSook-Bin Woo, DMD, MMSc

The general dentist in his or her daily practice en-counters a variety of mucosal disorders, most of which are straightforward and easy to diagnose. However, even banal-appearing lesions may be a manifestation of systemic disease or a side effect of treatment for systemic disease. Furthermore, the oral signs may be the first presentation, and

the dentist is in a unique position to help render an early diagno-sis. This presentation will consider six common oral conditions that are encountered in routine general dental practice. For each, there will be a common “default” diagnosis, followed by a discussion of other conditions that may look similar but represent the oral presentation of a systemic condition. The differences in history and clinical findings, as well as diagnostic tests that may help dis-tinguish between each of them, will also be presented. The con-ditions to be discussed include aphthous-like oral ulcers, lichen planus and lichenoid lesions, gingivitis, gingival hyperplasia, pig-mented macules, and nonhealing extraction sockets.

2:00 PM–2:45 PM

Salivary Biomarkers for Oral and Systemic DiseasesDavid T. Wong, DMD

Saliva has long been considered a “mirror of the body” that reflects the state of overall health. A wide range of systemic diseases, such as diabetes and Sjögren syndrome, have oral manifestations that clinicians (physicians and dentists) encounter in patients at various stages of disease develop-ment. Advances in the science of salivary diagnos-

tics have led to identification of disease signatures of candidate biomarkers and/or confirmation of genetic susceptibility for sys-temic conditions, particularly in molecular oncology. Development of the salivary proteome, transcriptome, micro-RNA, metabolome, and microbiome as diagnostic alphabets fully enables saliva to be translated for personalized individual medicine applications. Sali-vary biomarker panels have been developed for oral cancer, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, and ovarian cancer. Cou-pled with the development of point-of-care technologies and the emerging trend of chairside screening for medical conditions, the clinical impact of scientifically credentialed salivary biomarkers for molecular oncology application will improve access to care, reduc-ing health disparities and impacting global health.

2:45 PM–3:30 PM

The Role of the Oral Health Care Professional in Overall Health and Well-BeingBarbara L. Greenberg, MSc, PhD

The role of prevention and the integration of health care providers across disciplines is a critical component of the recent health care reform era. Early identification of individuals at increased risk of developing diseases of increasing significance, such as coronary heart disease and diabetes mel-litus, through point-of-care testing in a dental set-

Is there a biologic plausibility for an association between oral infections/disorders and systemic health? Can treatment of oral infections and disorders reduce the risk of adverse sys-temic outcomes? Is it safe to provide dental care for patients with a specifi c systemic condition? Written with the practicing dentist in mind, this book answers questions about the associa-tion between oral infections/disorders and systemic health and provides clinicians with information relevant to daily practice.
