Abstract

Objectives

A narrative review on the NO properties and their relationship with the oral environment describing NO’s molecular origin, role, and perspectives regarding oral pathological, physiological, and regenerative processes for future applications and possible use as prevention or treatment in dentistry.

Materials and methods

Pubmed was searched using the word “nitric oxide.” Reviews, clinical studies, and experimental studies were eligible for the screening process. Similar search procedures were then performed with the additional search words “conservative dentistry,” “orthodontics,” “endodontics,” “implants,” “periodontics,” “oral cancer,” “pulp revascularization,” and “oral surgery.” Furthermore, references of included articles were examined to identify further relevant articles.

Results

There is a relationship between NO production and oral diseases such as caries, periodontal diseases, pulp inflammation, apical periodontitis, oral cancer, with implants, and orthodontics. Studies on this relationship and uses of NO, in diagnosis, prevention, and treatment, are being developed. Also, some NO and oral cavity patents have already registered.

Conclusions

The understanding of how NO can interfere in oral health maintenance or disease processes can contribute to elucidate the disease development and optimize treatment approaches.

Clinical relevance

NO has considerable biotechnological potential and can contribute to improving diagnostics and treating the oral environment. As a biomarker, NO has an important role in the early diagnosis of diseases. Regarding treatments, NO can possibly be used as a regulator of inflammation, anti-biofilm action, replacing antibiotics, inducing apoptosis of cancerous cells, and contributing to the angiogenesis. All these studies are initial considerations regarding the relationship between NO and dentistry.
