This $582,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research (CFDA 93.121) program, will support research to investigate the use of epigenetic modulators to reverse the effects of peri-implantitis. The University of Rochester will conduct this 5-year research project, which aims to understand the inflammatory and oxidative stress mechanisms that contribute to peri-implantitis, a common...
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...
This federal Project Grant award of $1,963,287.00 from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), aims to develop multi-functional 3D printed dental implants that can effectively prevent peri-implantitis, a common and challenging implant-related oral infection. The key products and services to be delivered under this grant include: Developing highly tunable silver-doped amorphous magnesium phosphate...
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 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 $515,926 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will fund research to develop an in vitro gingival (gum) tissue system to study the role of microbial communities on oral health and disease. The 5-year project, beginning June 1, 2024, will be conducted by the University of Massachusetts Lowell's Office of Research Administration-Lowell. The key objectives are: (1) developing and validating a microphysiological system to study oral...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $5,700,915 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research (CFDA 93.121) program to the Regents of the University of Michigan. The grant, awarded on Sep 12, 2024 with a completion date of Jun 30, 2029, will fund the development of a new class of anticaries therapy that leverages species-specific susceptibilities to fluoride. The goal is to revert cariogenic biofilm dysbiosis and eliminate early childhood...

The key objectives are to: 1) investigate longitudinal periodontal ultrasound data and assess the effect of inflammation on ultrasound attenuation, 2) conduct texture...
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 support research to investigate the role of T cell immune responses to the oral pathogen Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (AA) in the development of periodontal disease. The $248,627 award, effective from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2029, will fund two primary research aims: 1) Assessing systemic T cell responses...
This federal 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 $429,000.00 to the Regents of the University of Michigan to conduct research on the unique characteristics of jawbone biology. The research aims to gain a molecular-level understanding of how osteoblasts in the jawbone respond differently to bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling and mechanical loading...

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 Michigan in creating a functional atlas of the peri-implant sulcus microbiome from inception to disease establishment, pinpointing timelines for the breakdown of microbial homeostasis, and validating these findings using a unique in vitro model. The goal is to improve understanding of the etiopathogenesis of peri-implant diseases, provide timelines for assessing disease risk, and develop predictive indicators of disease progression.
