Biología bucal
Durante las últimas décadas el área de las ciencias odontológicas ha visto una transición en la visión del desarrollo y función de la cavidad bucal y su relación con otros órganos y sistemas, al pasar hacia un enfoque que toma en conjunto el conocimiento desde una perspectiva de biología celular, molecular y bioquímica. Esto tiene un impacto profundo desde el diagnóstico y tratamientos actualmente utilizados hasta la emergencia de nuevas terapias que tienen como objetivo desde realizar diagnósticos personalizados hasta contar con terapias regenerativas. Por esto, es crítico que el clínico y especialista tengan una sólida formación en estas áreas para poder comprender y analizar críticamente todas aquellas estrategias encaminadas a formar parte de su vida profesional. En este curso, nos enfocaremos a dos de las enfermedades más comunes que afectan a la cavidad bucal, la caries dental y la enfermedad periodontal. En la primera sección, hablaremos sobre la bioquímica de la caries dental y como esta es resultado del fenómeno de transición de la disbiósis de la película. Esto lo correlacionaremos con los fenómenos de remineralización dental, así como con el flúor y su relación con la salud dental. Posteriormente hablaremos sobre la biología de la enfermedad periodontal. Veremos cómo los cambios en el ecosistema bucal conducen a los cambios inflamatorios, que perpetúan los estados de gingivitis y enfermedad periodontal. Asimismo, describiremos cuáles son los cambios celulares que se van dando durante esa transición. Finalmente, hablaremos sobre la relación de la cavidad bucal con las enfermedades sistémicas.
