Abstract:
Oral inflammatory diseases caused by odontogenic infections cover a wide range and have a high incidence rate,which can affect the morphology and function of the maxillofacial area and seriously en-danger oral health.Macrophages are important immunoactive cells in oral tissues,which can be polarized into M1/M2 type in different microenvironments,and then exert pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory effects,and are widely involved in the progression of odontogenic infectious diseases.In infections caused by oral mi-crobial factors such as bacteria,the distribution characteristics and polarization direction of macrophages in tis-sues are specific.At present,the research on macrophage polarization-related inflammatory diseases has attrac-ted more and more attention,and the regulation of macrophage M1/M2 polarization is gradually being used in the treatment of related diseases,and many research progress has been made in the diagnosis and treatment of odontogenic infectious diseases.In this paper,we elaborate on the distribution characteristics,polarization trends and related applications of macrophage polarization in common oral inflammatory diseases such as pul-pitis,apical periodontitis,periodontitis and peri-implantitis which are mainly caused by dental infections.The aim is to provide new ideas and targets for the diagnosis and treatment of oral inflammatory diseases.
