This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), will fund a research project focused on understanding the microbial ecosystem around dental implants and preventing the development of peri-implantitis, a disease that leads to implant failure. The $675,684 award, effective August 1, 2024 through July 31, 2025, will support the Regents of the University of...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $307,000 Project Grant (CFDA 93.121 - Oral Diseases and Disorders Research) to the University of Florida to investigate the expression of cellular senescence markers in gingival tissues of individuals with type 2 diabetes and periodontal disease. The project aims to compare senescence markers in healthy and diseased gingival biopsies between individuals with and without type 2 diabetes, and to correlate senescence...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $432,209 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research (CFDA 93.121) program to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) for a 2-year period starting on August 1, 2023. The funding supports research to investigate the role of the CXCL10-CXCR3 axis in the compounding effects of diabetes mellitus on periodontitis. Specifically, the research aims to further elucidate the role of CXCL10 in the...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), will provide $656,315 to Temple University to study the impact of cyclic strain on the pathogenesis of oral microbes, particularly Candida albicans and denture-related microbiota. The goal is to mechanistically understand how biomaterial cyclic strain, driven by chewing forces, can influence the virulence and dysbiosis of oral...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (CFDA 93.121, Oral Diseases and Disorders Research) provides $158,500.00 to the Trustees of Indiana University, doing business as Indiana University Indianapolis, to conduct research on how diabetes affects oral epithelial stem cells and wound healing. The key objectives are to determine how diabetes disrupts the oral epithelial stem cell microenvironment and impairs stem cell function, leading to...
This federal Project Grant award of $582,000.00 from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), will support research to investigate epigenetic mechanisms underlying peri-implantitis, a common inflammatory condition affecting dental implants. The University of Rochester, the awardee, will use this funding to further develop and study a rat model of peri-implantitis, with the goal of elucidating the...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), aims to develop a multifunctional, 3D-printed dental implant capable of preventing peri-implantitis, a common and challenging implant-related oral infection. The $1,963,287 award to Cleveland State University will fund the development of silver-doped amorphous magnesium phosphate bioceramic particles, which will be incorporated...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $249,999 to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania for the development of a smart dental implant system. The award will support research and educational activities from September 2022 through August 2025. Specifically, the grantee will build a strategy to prevent peri-implant disease through enhancing soft tissue immunity near dental implants. They will develop an ambulatory care platform...
This federal Project Grant award of $185,918 from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), will fund research to evaluate the impact of Medicaid coverage for treatment of periodontal disease on health outcomes for Medicaid beneficiaries. The project aims to assess the effect of periodontal disease treatment coverage on tooth loss, emergency department use for dental problems, oral healthcare costs,...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), will provide $423,500.00 to Nova Southeastern University, Inc. to develop a humanized mouse model of periodontitis. The goal is to investigate the potential pathogenic role of the protein Semaphorin 4D expressed by human osteoclasts in the progression of periodontal disease. This advanced mouse model will allow researchers to...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) under its Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121) provides $434,746 to Nova Southeastern University, Inc. to investigate the impact of diabetes-induced hyperglycemia on the development of peri-implantitis, a common complication following dental implant placement. The project aims to elucidate the mechanisms by which hyperglycemia leads to changes in the oral microbiome and promotes peri-implant inflammation and bone loss. This will involve characterizing microbial shifts in peri-implant and periodontal sites, examining cellular responses to hyperglycemia-associated microbiota, and evaluating the role of key inflammatory mediators. The Forsyth Institute, a non-profit research organization, is a sub-awardee providing bioinformatics support and assisting with experimental design. The project period runs from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2025.
