Levels of and especially the degree of activation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-8) in oral fluids (i.e., saliva, mouth rinse,gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and peri-implantitis sulcular fluid (PISF)) increase to pathologically elevated levels in theperiodontal and peri-implant diseases. (is study aimed at collecting and collating data from previously published studies anddetermining whether active MMP-8 (aMMP-8) could serve as a biomarker for the diagnosis and prevention of periodontal andperi-implant diseases. (e literature search identified a total of 284 articles. Out of 284 articles, 61 articles were found to berelevant. Data obtained from the selected studies were combined, and it indicated that aMMP-8 in oral fluids exerts the strongpotential to serve as a useful adjunctive diagnostic and preventive biotechnological tool in periodontal and peri-implant diseases.aMMP-8 can be used alone or in combination with other proinflammatory and/or microbiological biomarkers.
1. Introduction
Periodontitis and peri-implantitis, globally common infection-induced oral inflammatory disorders of teeth and dental im-plants supporting soft and hard tissue, i.e., periodontium andperi-implatium, involve destruction of both soft and hardtissues, as active periodontal and peri-implant degradation(APD). Periodontal/peri-implant tissues are mainly made upof type I collagen. (e proteolytic enzyme mainly re-sponsible for the active periodontal/peri-implant soft andhard tissue degeneration (APD) is matrix metalloproteinase(MMP-8), also known as collagenase-2 or neutrophil col-lagenase. MMP-8 is a member of the MMP family. Struc-turally related but genetically distinct MMPs are Ca2+- andZn2+-dependent endopeptidases capable of degradationof almost all extracellular matrix and basement membraneprotein components both in physiologic repair and patho-logic destruction of tissues, such as a breakdown of
extracellular matrix in embryonic development, woundhealing, and tissue remodeling [1].
(e MMP family is divided into six protease groups:collagenases (MMP-1, MMP-8, and MMP-13), gelatinases(MMP-2 and MMP-9), stromelysins (MMP-3, MMP-10, andMMP-11), matrilysins (MMP-7 and MMP-26), member-typeMMPs (MMP-14, MMP-15, MMP-16, MMP-17, and MMP-12), and other nonclassified MMPs, given their auxiliarycontrasts [2]. Among all of these groups, the collagenasegroup is of particular relevance in periodontal disease as it canefficiently cleave native collagen fibers I, II, and III. MMP-8has been categorized under the interstitial collagenase sub-group of the MMP family. Activities of MMPs are inhibitedand regulated by the endogenous or natural tissue inhibitorsof tissue inhibitors of MMP (TIMPs) and α2-macroglobulin[3].(e imbalance betweenMMPs and TIMPs often results inirreversible periodontal and peri-implant destructive pa-thology involving irreversible APD [3–5].

Recently, an increased level of MMP-8, especially inactivated/active form (aMMP-8), in oral fluids is associatedwith and reflects periodontal and peri-implant inflammation/diseases especially in clinical active phases [3, 6–8]. Peri-odontal and peri-implant degeneration (APD) is caused byinterstitial collagenase MMP-8 and not by bacterial enzymes[9]. MMP-8 is released from neutrophils by selective de-granulation triggered by potent periodontopathogenic bac-teria and their virulence factors together with host-derivedproinflammatory mediators [3, 7]. Gingival fibroblasts, whenstimulated by proinflammatorymediators, such as interleukin(IL)-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α, can produce collage-nolytic MMPs including MMP-8 [10]. (e level of active, butnot latent or total, collagenase-2/MMP-8 reflects, predicts,and is related to progressive periodontal and peri-implantdisease activity [11]. Elevated levels of aMMP-8 in oral fluids(saliva, mouth rinse, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF), and peri-implant sulcular fluid (PISF)) were found to be associatedwith clinical periodontal parameters, i.e., probing pocketdepth (PPD), bleeding on probing (BOP), and clinical at-tachment loss (CAL) [12]. (e levels of aMMP-8 decreaseafter successful periodontal and peri-implant treatments[7, 13, 14].
A number of studies that have been performed utilizepoint-of-care (PoC)/chair-side analysis of elevated aMMP-8in saliva/oral fluids [15–17]. A study comparing a PoCimmunoflow tool with the standard gold laboratory-basedone concluded that concentration of aMMP-8 in oral fluidsis useful in distinguishing periodontal diseases from healthysubjects [15]. Lateral flow immunoassay of aMMP-8 hasbeen shown to have high sensitivity for at least two sites withBOP and two sites with deepened periodontal pockets [18].Sorsa et al. demonstrated that immunofluorometric assay(IFMA) and DentoAnalyzer-PoC-test could detect aMMP-8from GCF samples, and these methods are comparable withthe chair-side/PoC aMMP-8 dip-stick test [6]. (e Amer-sham enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) fortotal MMP-8 immunoactivities was not in line with thePoC/chair-side immune tests, specific for aMMP-8 [6]. Fewstudies demonstrated the associations of various periodontalpathogens in oral fluids with the levels of aMMP-8 andsuggested to use in combination with aMMP-8 with otherproinflammatory and microbiological biomarkers that maypotentially improve the diagnostic accuracy [6, 7]. (epresent review aimed at collecting and collating the datafrom published literature regarding the potential of aMMP-8in saliva/oral fluids to be used as a biomarker and predictorfor periodontal and peri-implant diseases [6, 7, 19, 20].
2. Materials and Methods
2.1. Study Identification. A literature search was performedin two electronic databases PubMed and Cochrane toidentify related studies of the past 15 years. In addition tothis, other relevant studies were identified by manualsearching. Keyword used for study identification in all da-tabases were “MMP-8 and periodontal inflammation,”“MMP-8 and peri-implantitis,” and “MMP-8 and low-dosedoxycycline.” (e synonyms such as MMP-8, collagenase-2,
and neutrophil collagenase were also searched in combi-nation with periodontitis. (e electronic search was donefrom November 11, 2016, to July 30, 2018.
2.2. StudySelection. All identified studies were screened, andthe selection process was done on the basis of inclusion andexclusion criteria.
2.2.1. Inclusion Criteria. Inclusion criteria are as follows:
(1) Randomized controlled trials(2) Observational studies(3) Review articles(4) Studies included low-dose doxycycline/sub-
antimicrobial dose doxycycline (L/SDD) as an ad-junctive drug for treatment of periodontal diseases
2.2.2. Exclusion Criteria. Exclusion criteria are as follows:
(1) Written in language other than English(2) Case reports(3) (esis(4) Animals studies(5) Diagnosis of periodontal disease was not written(6) Experimental gingivitis
3. Results
3.1. Study Selection and Data Abstraction. (e literaturesearch identified a total of 284 articles. Out of 284 articles,data of 61 articles were selected. Data obtained from selectedstudies were combined and summarized in the present study(Table 1).
3.2. Sources of MMP-8 in the Oral Cavity. A major source ofMMP-8 (neutrophil-type MMP-8) in humans are degra-nulating triggered neutrophils, but MMP-8 (mesenchymalcell-type MMP-8) is also de novo expressed and secreted insmall amounts by non-PMN-lineage cells such as epithelialcells, smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts, macrophages, andendothelial cells [74–77]. Neutrophil collagenase/polymorphonuclear leukocyte- (PMN-) derivedcollagenase-2/MMP-8 differs from interstitial collagenasessecreted by other cells in that it is synthesized only duringthe myelocyte stage of development of neutrophils in thebone marrow and stored as a latent enzyme, i.e., latent pro-MMP-8 (Mr 85 kDa) within the specific granules of PMN.Pro-MMP-8 is rapidly released from activated PMN un-dergoing selective subcellular granule degranulation and isthen activated through the cysteine switch mechanism often,but not always, associated with selective N-terminal pro-teolysis to yield the active form of the enzyme (Mr 65 kDa)and activation fragments [3, 74–77].
(e main source of oral salivary collagenase is PMNsthat enter the oral cavity through gingival sulcus [11, 75]. It isevident from the fact that collagenase was only detected in

whole oral saliva of subjects and not in secretions of majororal salivary glands. Furthermore, whole oral saliva collectedfrom edentulous subjects did not show a significant amountof collagenase [75].
Oral fluid (GCF, PISF, mouth rinse, and saliva) colla-genases exert similarity with PMN- or neutrophil-typecollagenase-2 (MMP-8). It degrades type I and II colla-gens significantly faster than the type III collagen. Its mo-lecular weight is 65–70 kDa, same as collagenase of thePMNs/neutrophils/MMP-8 and gingival sulcus [3, 7]. It isactivated by gold thioglucose, which only activatesPMN/neutrophil collagenase [3, 7, 75, 77].
3.3. Active and Latent Forms. Most of the oral salivarycollagenase found in a healthy mouth is in the latent form,whereas in case of periodontal or/and peri-implant diseasepatient(s), it is in active or activated (aMMP-8) form to-gether with activation fragments [3, 43, 75, 77]. Studies doneby Gangbar et al. and Lee et al. [11, 76] demonstrated thatoral fluid active collagenase, but not latent, is related andreflects to progressive clinical periodontal disease activity,i.e., loss attachment or APD. aMMP-8 in oral fluids pre-cedes, predicts, is associated with, and reflects on on-goingor future/developing progressive, often hidden and sub-clinical, periodontal and peri-implant disease activity, i.e., CAL,APD, and active peri-implant degeneration [3, 6, 7, 17, 76, 77].Significant correlations have been found between aMMP-8and progressing severity of periodontal and peri-implantdiseases [3, 4, 6, 7, 26]. Successful periodontal and peri-implant treatment significantly reduces aMMP-8 levels inoral fluids [3, 6, 7, 17, 78, 79].
3.4.MMP-8andCorrelationwithPeriodontalDiseases. It hasbeen documented in several studies that salivary and oralfluids at aMMP-8 levels are higher in subjects with localizedand generalized periodontitis than in healthy controls butthe levels reduced after nonsurgical periodontal therapy,i.e., scaling and root planning (SRP) [12, 39, 41, 43, 53].Furthermore, aMMP-8, but not latent/total MMP-8, levelscould differentiate between periodontitis and gingivitis aswell [59]. A slight increase inMMP-8 levels could be observedin case of gingivitis, which shows a decrease after dentalprophylaxis or secondary preventive interventions [57].
Nwhator et al. demonstrated that aMMP-8, measured bylateral flow chair-side/PoC immunoassay (PerioSafe®), isdirectly proportional to the oral hygiene status [18]. It showsa positive correlation with chronic periodontitis and BOP butonly in the presence of two or more sites having the deepenedPPD of not less than 5mm; these aMMP-8 PoC findingsindicate that such deepened sites are APD affected. (esensitivity of immunoassay for a single site affected by chronicperiodontitis was found to be less [18]. Levels of aMMP-8 inoral fluids have been demonstrated to correlate with clinicalperiodontal parameters in particularly PPD, and it also re-flects the effect of treatment [12, 18, 44, 47, 54, 62]. Levels ofaMMP-8 are not only associated with clinical periodontalparameters status but also showed significant association withradiological parameters. aMMP-8 levels have been shown to
differentiate subjects with a severe bone loss with those witha slight bone loss [53, 58]. Izadi Boroujeni et al. demonstrateda sensitivity of 87% and specificity of 60% of aMMP-8 ina PoC detection of generalized chronic periodontitis [62].
In children, sites with aggressive periodontitis showhigher levels of MMP than adults with chronic periodontitis[33]. Baeza et al. reported in their study that aMMP-8 levelsin chronic periodontitis were elevated [69]. When aMMP-8levels were measured by ELISA, the cutoff point wasidentified as 13 ng/ml chronic periodontitis case [69].
In number of previous investigations, aMMP-8 levelshave been reported to predict periodontal disease pro-gression [3, 7, 76, 77]. aMMP-8 levels differentiate betweensubjects with stable and progressing periodontitis; theseconfirmatory findings have been repeatedly recorded byindependent immune and catalytic activity assays specific foraMMP-8 [6, 8, 80, 81]. While predicting periodontal diseaseprogression, highest sensitivity was noted with salivary/oralfluid aMMP-8, whereas GCF aMMP-8 showed high speci-ficity [56, 59, 63, 71].
Leppilahti et al. established cutoff levels for smoking andnonsmoking periodontal patients to predict site-specificlevels of treatment outcomes [56, 57, 59, 63]. (e mostoptimal cutoff value among smokers was 0.045, whereas fornonsmokers, the calculated value was 0.085.(ese values canbe helpful in longitudinal monitoring of the disease statusduring the maintenance period [56, 57, 59, 63].
3.5. Study Specimens. Oral fluids, such as mouth rinse, GCF,PISF, and saliva, have been used as specimens [3, 6, 7].Mouth-rinse samples can be collected quickly, non-invasively, and the collection process is less time-consumingas compared to a collection of GCF and PISF. Mouth-rinseassay is useful for screening purposes mainly, but it does notprovide exact information or identification/localizationabout the sites of clinically active disease. Whole saliva,variation in the salivary flow rate, use of antimicrobialmedication, and smoking habits may have an impact on theresults. GCF and PISF provide site-specific information,therefore useful in the personalized treatment plan of anindividual [53]. Johnson et al. reported that when measuredwith lateral flow immunoassay, saliva showed 4.1 timeshigher concentration of MMP-8 in periodontal patients thanperiodontal healthy controls [15].
Correlation between aMMP-8 levels in serum and oralfluids have been tested in few studies [34, 41, 56, 71]. Noacket al. reported a significant correlation between aMMP-8concentration in the serum and severity of periodontaldisease. In addition, serum MMP-8 concentration was alsofound to show a positive correlation with a subgingivalbacterial load [71]. Differing from findings of Noack et al.[71], others on serum concentration of MMP-8 failed to findany correlation with periodontal disease [34, 41]. (esevarying associations can also be affected by differences inthe use of clinical indices utilized to assess periodontalhealth and disease as well as systemic assessments of patientsand healthy controls. Additionally, various mediations mayaffect systemic and serum aMMP-8. [34, 41, 56, 71] Only one

study reported that fibroblasts were used as a study specimento evaluate its role in the pathophysiology of peri-implantitis.[34] When proinflammatory and matrix degrading responsesof gingival and granulation tissue fibroblasts to an in vitrochallenge to Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) werecompared between subjects with healthy periodontium andpatients with periodontitis and peri-implantitis lesion, MMP-8 expression was found higher in nonchallenged peri-implantitis fibroblasts than in fibroblasts from healthyperiodontium. (is indicates that the inflammatory responsewas more pronounced in fibroblasts from periodontitis andperi-implantitis than in fibroblasts from periodontally healthyindividuals. (ese findings suggest that the exposure ofprolonged inflammation, i.e., periodontal/peri-implant dis-ease experience and burden, can affect and promote cells’ability to express MMP-8 [34].
Passoja et al. did not find any correlation between peri-odontal disease and serum MMP-8 levels [34]. A studyperformed by Ozçaka et al. showed that the levels of MMP-8in the serum of patients with chronic periodontitis did notsignificantly differ from periodontal healthy subjects [41].Kinney et al. showed that serum levels of biomarkers did notplay any significant role in the diagnosis of periodontitis [56].
3.6. Immunoassays Used to Detect aMMP-8 (IFMA, Den-toAnalyzer, DentoELISA, ELISA as Neutrophil Collagenase-2Immunoassays). MMP-8 detected by the IFMA techniquecorrelates more strongly with the periodontal and peri-implant status, and better diagnostic accuracy is foundhigher than that of ELISA [58, 59]. A possible reason is thatELISAmostly detects all forms of MMP-8 (total/latent MMP-8), whereas IFMA selectively identifies activated neutrophiland fibroblast-type isoforms of MMP-8, then particularly inthe active form (aMMP-8) [6]. A study done by Leppilahtiet al. shows that results of IFMA were comparable withDentoELISA but not with commercial Amersham ELISA;IFMA and DentoELISA utilize the same aMMP-8 antibody[6–8, 18, 24, 28, 42, 64, 70, 82] Total MMP-8 levels measuredby the Amersham ELISA test did not correlate with values ofperiodontal parameters [6–8, 42, 83].
Baeza et al. reported aMMP-8, measured by IFMA, to beless accurate in differentiating periodontitis from healthysites. Differing from the other studies, the performance ofDentoELISA was comparable to IFMA [69]. In chronicperiodontitis patients, a positive correlation was observedbetween PPD and aMMP-8, measured by IFMA. CALshowed a positive correlation with aMMP-8, measured byIFMA and DentoELISA.[69]. Lateral-flow chair-side/PoC-PerioSafe® and ImplantSafe® immunotests (Figure 1), withand without the quantitative reader ORALyzer®, utilized thesame aMMP-8 antibody as IFMA andDentoELISA, and theyall correlate well with each other [13, 17, 61, 65, 78, 84, 85].
3.7. aMMP-8 Level in Oral Fluids of Smokers. According toMantyla et al., the mean aMMP-8 levels in smokers werefound to be lower compared to non-smokers, but sites withthe progressive disease show similar or higher levels ofaMMP-8 in both smokers and nonsmokers [28]. Heikkinen
et al. found similar results when comparing levels of aMMP-8 levels between smokers and nonsmokers, but the differencefound was not statistically significant. Levels of aMMP-8reduced after SRP but sites with exceptionally elevatedaMMP-8 concentrations clustered in smokers did not showa significant decrease in aMMP-8 after SRP. (ese sites witha poor response may indicate sites at elevated risk and wereeasily identified by the chair-side/PoC aMMP-8 test. [28, 38]Baseline GCF aMMP-8 levels have been shown to predictaMMP-8 levels during maintenance of periodontitis. Par-ticularly in smokers, high levels of aMMP-8 at the baselineindicated a poor response to periodontal treatment [60].
According to Heikkinen et al., smoking affects the bio-marker values in a dose-dependent manner. Formersmokers were found to have a similar level of aMMP-8 ascompared to nonsmokers. Furthermore, obesity was foundto be a confounder. Values of aMMP-8 among nonsmokersdid not remain statistically significant when bodymass indexvalues were taken into account during analysis. However, thevalues were not affected in case of male smokers [38].
In contrast to these studies, Passoja et al. and Miller et al.did not find any significant correlation of smoking with anelevated aMMP-8 level in their independent studies done on

saliva and GCF, respectively [29, 34]. Results of a study byGursoy et al. showed that aMMP-8 was higher in non-smoking periodontitis patients than controls, and insmokers’, only statistically significant parameter was TIMP-1 level that could differentiate between periodontitis patientsand control. (e ratio of aMMP-8, measured by the IFMAmethod, and TIMP-1 could successfully differentiate be-tween periodontitis and healthy smoking subjects as well. Apossible explanation for this finding, according to the au-thors, is that MMP-8 is less effective in mediating tissuedegradation in the smoker subjects. It also indicates thatsmoking eventually can affect the detection of the potentialbiomarkers of periodontal disease [37].
3.8. MMP-8 Levels before and after Nonsurgical =erapy.Gonçalves et al. demonstrated that SRP and use of systemicantibiotics effectively reduced local levels of specific MMPsin case of localized aggressive periodontitis. [54] Leppilahtiet al. showed in their study that in patients who underwentazithromycin antibiotic treatment, the MMP-8 levels in GCFspecifically are more stable and remain lower than a pre-defined cutoff level [63].
A study done by Konopka et al. showed that SRP im-proves all examined clinical periodontal parameters, apartfrom CAL. However, the GCF levels of MMP-8 after therapyin the periodontitis patient was still found to be higher thana control group [47]. In contrast to this finding, Gonçalveset al., found that level of MMP-8 in GCF was comparable tohealthy sites. Most marked reduction in MMP-8 levels wasnoticed in a short period, i.e., 3–6 months after receivingtreatment [54].
Nonsurgical therapy with and without antibiotics canreduce the level of active and total collagenase/MMP-8 [11]At the beginning of the treatment, the total collagenaseactivity was found similar to that of active collagenasedemonstrating that most of the collagenase present at thisstage was in an active form [11]. However, Konopka et al.could not find any correlation between clinical parametersand amount of humoral factors after the therapy, while theyshowed a correlation at the baseline with PPD and a prox-imal plaque index (PI) [47]. Baseline GCF MMP-8 levelsstrongly predict the change in level during a maintenanceperiod [59, 63]. Elevated baseline levels of GCF MMP-8 insmokers indicate a weak response to therapy [59, 60, 63].
3.9. Host Response Modulation. (is term is recently in-troduced in dentistry andmeansmodifying destructive aspectsof inflammatory host response that develops in periodontaland peri-implant tissues as a result of inflammatory outcometo chronic subgingival bacterial plaque. (e purpose of thistherapy was to restore a balance between proinflammatorymediators and anti-inflammatorymediators. Host modulationby low-dose-doxycycline/sub-antimicrobial-dose-doxycycline(L/SDD) medication also efficiently inhibits and reducesgingival tissue and oral fluid aMMP-8 and at the same timeceases the progression of periodontal/peri-implant tissuedestruction (APD) [3, 7, 66]. Only L/SDD has been licensedand accepted by FDA as a host responsemodulator andMMP-
inhibitory drug in humans for the treatment of periodontaldisease until now [66]. In L/SDD, doxycycline 20mg is givenorally twice a day or 40mg once a day to produce serum levelsof doxycycline, which is too low to produce any antimicrobialeffects but enough effective to inhibit/downregulate aMMP-8[7]. In contrast to traditional dose (100mg, once, or twicedaily), L/SDD does not cause any bacterial resistance todoxycycline and does not alter normal flora, a composition ofbacterial biofilm and their susceptibility to doxycycline andother antibiotics, even after long-term (up to 24 months) dailyadministration [66]. Furthermore, L/SDD causes a significantreduction in the levels of inflammatory mediators, mediatorsof collagenolysis (� aMMP-8), collagen degradation products,proinflammatory cytokines, and periodontal connective tissuedestruction. [32] It has been shown to inhibit alveolar boneloss during periodontitis due to its ability to reduce gingivaloxidative stress and aMMP-8 [32].
Evidence suggests that L/SDD has a strong potential formodulation of host response in beneficially aiding diseasemanagement when used as an adjunct medication to con-ventional mechanical therapy, SRP [27]. L/SDD reducespostsurgical BOP, PPD, and periodontal bone resorption[66]. L/SDD has been shown to support periodontal treat-ment like SRP as well as reduce the related systemic low-grade inflammation [31].
Emingil et al. concluded in their study that use of L/SDDtogether with SRP in the chronic periodontitis patientshowed better clinical results/treatment outcomes as com-pared to SRP alone. A significant decrease in gingival in-flammation scores at 3 months, and PPD reduction at 9months was observed in the L/SDD group compared toa placebo group and was maintained until the end of 12months [25]. In a study, L/SDD caused 36% reduction ofbone height loss, when added to periodontal maintenance[36]. Sorsa et al. concluded that L/SDD, when coupled withSRP, could inhibit the activity or decrease expression of hostMMPs, especially aMMP-8, by a mechanism that is un-related to its antimicrobial property [3, 6, 7].
3.10. Effect ofMetal Restorations. According to a study doneby Khuslinski et al. on practically healthy subjects with intactperiodontium and patients with chronic generalized peri-odontitis with various structural materials of dental resto-rations [46], the level of MMP-8 surpassed the normal onlyin oral fluids of patients with chronic generalized peri-odontitis with metal restorations. In patients with chronicgeneralized periodontitis with or without metal dentalrestorations, obtained correlation coefficients indicate trig-gered biochemical cascade accompanied by the activation ofcytokine production in response to etiological factors. (egroup of patients with periodontitis and metal restorationsdemonstrated a reaction that is more marked.
3.11. Association of Periodontal Microorganism withMMP-8.(e presence of subgingival microorganisms, mainly Trep-onema denticola (T. denticola), seemed to increase the levelsof salivary albumin, the total protein contain in saliva, andlevels of MMP-8 in GCF. (ere is a possibility that both T.

denticola and Tannerella forsythia (T. forsythia) have in-duced a cascade-type host response with increased releaseand activation of MMP-8 in GCF [35, 50, 86]. T. denticolaand P. gingivalis-derived proteases (dentosilin and gingi-pain, respectively) can proteolytically and efficiently activateand convert latent pro-MMP-8 to aMMP-8 [45, 86, 88].
3.12. MMP-8 and Genetic Background. According to Heik-kinen et al., genetic polymorphism of MMP-3 and vitamin Dreceptor found to be linked to initial periodontitis in Finnishadolescents, and aMMP-8 PoC/chair-side immunoassayPerioSafe® mouth-rinse test can be used for on-line PoCdetection of initial periodontitis or preperiodontitis in ado-lescent patients with such type of genetic predisposition.(is indicates the preventive potential of the PerioSafe®ORALyzer®-aMMP-8 chair-side/PoC test [70].(us, aMMP-8 mouth-rinse chair-side/PoC test positivity and 3 or more>4mm pockets associated with the vitamin-D receptor andMMP-3 single-nucleotide polymorphisms. No associationwas found between single nucleotide polymorphism studiedwith the positivity of aMMP-8 [70].
3.13. MMP-8 in Dental Peri-implantitis. An inflammatoryreaction associated with loss of supporting bone beyondinitial biological bone remodeling around a dental implant,called peri-implantitis, is commonly reported as one of thesignificant contributors to dental implant failure [88–91].(e etiopathogenesis in case of peri-implantitis showsconsiderable similarity to periodontitis and shows compa-rable bacterial colonization and exudate of immune cells[88]. Similar to the periodontitis, aMMP-8 levels were re-peatedly found to be pathologically elevated in diseased PISFas well [21–23, 30, 35, 45, 68, 82]. Both PMN- and non-PMN-type MMP-8 isoforms particularly in active formshave been observed in PISF of peri-implantitis patients[21–23, 30, 82]. However, Wang et al. reported that MMP-8alone was not able to differentiate peri-implantitis patientsfrom healthy patients [67]. T. denticola and Prevotellaintermedia were reported to show diagnostic ability in caseof peri-implantitis [67, 72, 73]. Gingival inflammationshowed correlation to aMMP-8 levels in PISF [22, 23]. Maet al. found that aMMP-8 in PISF, assessed by IFMA, as-sociated with enhanced bone loss indicating that aMMP-8participated in peri-implant bone loss and osteolysis [21].Ritzer et al. [49] demonstrated by the 24/7-chewing-gumMMP-8 assay that elevated levels of MMP-8 could be de-tected in peri-implantitis oral fluids confirming and furtherextending the findings of Teronon et al., Kivela-Rajamakiet al., Xu et al., and Kivela-Rajamaki et al. [21–23, 30, 82].
Ramseier et al. reported a positive correlation betweenMMP-8, PI, and BOP in both GCF and PISF [65]. Ziebolzet al. have demonstrated that PISF aMMP-8 levels can bekept successfully low during maintenance in patients un-dergoing successfully supportive implant therapy indicatingthat successful professional maintenance intervention isassociated with low (<20 ng/ml) PISF aMMP-8 levels similarto the healthy peri-implant status [73, 78, 79]. Similarclinical parameters and MMP-8 levels were obtained with
both zirconium and titanium abutments at the end of 1 year.However, initially, titanium abutment was reported to showhigher PISF MMP-8 levels and probing depth [72].
(us, elevated levels of aMMP-8 in PISF associate sig-nificantly and repeatedly with peri-implant inflammationand bone loss/osteolysis [21–23, 30, 78]. Low (<20 ng/ml) inaMMP-8 levels in PISF reflects and indicates healthy and/orsuccessfully treated status peri-implantium (Figure 1)[73, 78, 79]. Pathologically elevated levels of aMMP-8(>20 ng/ml) can be conveniently detected by a quantita-tive lateral flow aMMP-8 dip-stick test, i.e., ImplantSafe®(Figure 1) [17, 78].
3.14. Combining Other Biomarkers to Increase DiagnosticAccuracy. Simultaneous measurement of more than oneoral fluid marker may allow more accurate prediction ofperiodontal inflammatory burden [53]. Combinations of theMMP-8 biomarker and pathogens that correspond with it(such as T. denticola) may give a more accurate prediction ofperiodontitis as compared to a single biomarker alone [35].
Gursoy et al. concluded in their study that proportional orcombined use of oral salivary biomarkers increases diagnosticaccuracy, particularly in smoker subjects [37]. It was foundthat the MMP-8/TIMP molar ratio and the combination oftwo biomarkers, MMP-8 and pyridinoline cross-linked car-boxyterminal telopeptide of type I collagen (ICTP), weresignificantly higher in detecting periodontitis compared toMMP-8 test alone [37]. A study testing accuracy of the cu-mulative risk score calculated (CRS) from three salivarybiomarkers (i.e., P. gingivalis, IL-1β, and MMP-8) was moreaccurate in the diagnosis of advanced periodontitis than anyof the markers alone [40]. Leppilahti et al. suggested mea-surement of MMP-8 and TIMP-1 to obtain higher diagnosticaccuracy [42]. A study performed by Rathnayake et al.proposed use of MMP-8/TIMP-1 molar ratio as markers ofperiodontal disease in a larger patient population [52]. Sal-minen et al. proposed combination of three biomarkers,i.e., MMP-8, IL-1β, and P. gingivalis (CRS) for diagnosis ofperiodontitis [54] (e median concentration of these threewas significantly higher in the moderate to severe peri-odontitis group as compared to controls. In addition, Ebersoleet al. reported also that salivary levels of IL-1β, IL-6, andMMP-8 provide high diagnostic accuracy for periodontitiswith high sensitivity and specificity [55]. Furthermore, MMP-8 levels were higher in patients diagnosed with chronicperiodontitis and diabetic, but P. gingivalis did not affectmuch. Unlike MMP-8, P. gingivalis values remain unaffectedin edentulous subjects. P. gingivalis successfully differentiatedcurrent smokers from former smokers and however, did notshow correlation with BOP [54].
(erefore, using biomarkers and various pathogens incombination may improve accuracy in diagnosis; however,the complexity and costs to perform such tests routinely willincrease considerably. (erefore, simpler, inexpensive, andreadily available tests that have been shown to be sufficientalone to detect and quantify aMMP-8, such as PerioSafe®and ImplantSafe®/ORALyzer®, might be more desirable(Figure 1) [78].

3.15. PoC Tests. Chair-side and point-of-care (PoC) lateralflow immunotests for the detection of aMMP-8 in oral fluidsare commercially available (i.e., PerioSafe® andImplantSafe®) with the detection limit of 20 ng/ml (Fig-ure 1). (e tests resemble the pregnancy home test (Fig-ure 1).(e quantitative reader-equipped ORALyzer® PoCtest of oral fluids that measure aMMP-8 is found usefulin differentiating active and inactive periodontal andperi-implant sites and patients, predicting disease pro-gression in future, and monitoring the responses totherapy during the maintenance phase [17, 78]. (ebenefits of using these aMMP-8 tests are that these can beused in clinical settings, are easy to use, are inexpensive,and give prompt quick results with high sensitivity andspecificity (i.e., the sensitivity of 90% and specificity of70–85%) [6, 7, 16, 17, 24, 28, 42, 44, 51, 62, 64, 70, 78].
Alassiri et al. demonstrated that quantitative, PerioSafe®and ImplantSafe® ORALyzer®, PoC/chair-side assays couldconveniently diagnose and follow the treatment of peri-odontitis and peri-implantitis [17, 78]. (us, these tests candetect subclinical, developing periodontitis and peri-implantitis and related collage degradation even beforethe appearance of clinical and radiographical signs[14, 16, 17, 73, 82]. (ese test alarm preperiodontitis andpre-peri-implantitis and identity preventively future peri-odontal and peri-implantitis breakdown. (ey thus makeinvisible destruction or onset of periodontal/peri-implantcollagenolysis to be visible and detectable in an enough earlyand predictive manner allowing the identification andtiming of the preventive interactions/treatment such assecondary prevention and/or supportive periodontal/peri-implant treatment [17, 61, 65, 73, 84, 85].
PerioSafe® and ImplantSafe® with digital readers aremodern in vitro fast immunological diagnostic and pre-vention professional technologies/tests for examination ofthe oral/periodontal/peri-implant status of teeth and dentalimplants at different time intervals (at least once annually) todetect risk of silent or hidden periodontal, peri-implanttissue degeneration and alveolar bone loss even beforethey can be detected clinically or radiographically [16, 17].(e PoC tests also help in time preventive treatment which isnecessary for long-term success of implants, periodontaltissues, and patients. Another aspect of it is that this is alsohealthy and economical for the patients and society.
Regarding the chair-side/PoC-aMMP-8 lateral flowimmune tests (Figure 1), the appearance of only one lineindicates the negative result that reveals normal condition/ahealthy status (<20 ng aMMP-8 per ml), and appearance oftwo lines indicates increased risk (>20 ng aMMP-8 per ml)(Figure 1) for periodontitis and/or peri-implantitis, eitheralready existing or developing periodontitis and peri-implantitis, identified by PerioSafe and ImplantSafe, re-spectively (Figure 1). (ese PoC tests can be used with thereader for quantitative analysis [17, 78].
For quantitative analysis, dip-stick tests should be placedin the corresponding compartment of the reader. (en, flapis closed, the compartment is pushed into ORALyzer®, andcheck mark is pressed. (e ORALyzer® is designed in sucha way that it automatically starts and measures the aMMP-8
levels after 5min. (us, the qualitative “eye”-estimatedplus/minus test results are quantitatively expressed in ng/mlaMMP-8 PoC/chairside [17, 78].
4. Summary
(e current review analyzed the potential of aMMP-8 asa potential diagnostic, predictive, and preventive adjunctivebiomarker/biotechnological tool for periodontal and peri-implant diseases. (e available evidence suggests that espe-cially aMMP-8 in oral fluids reflect, associate, and predict wellwith the clinical periodontal parameters and outcomes as wellas clinical disease activity of periodontitis and peri-implantitistogether with evaluation of treatment outcomes [18, 44, 47, 54].Only few studies failed to find the correlation between clinicalCAL [47], and few others reported that MMP-8 levels are notcorrelated with BOP [62]. In addition, aMMP-8 levels werereported to be associated with radiological parameters too [53].Importantly when evaluating these studies, it should be kept inmind that active/activated MMP-8, not MMP-8 or total latentMMP-8, is a biomarker of active and progressive periodontaland peri-implant disease [3, 4, 6–9, 11, 17, 76, 77, 80, 81].
(us, pathologically and repeatedly elevated of aMMP-8levels in saliva show the highest sensitivity and in GCF/PISF,the highest specificity [56]. aMMP-8 levels of mouth rinse andoral saliva can be useful for screening, whereas GCF/PISFlevels could predict at site-specific level treatment outcomesand may be a useful adjunct in an individual/personalizedtreatment and monitoring plans. (us, the aMMP-8 testsrepresent tools for personalizedmedicine [56]. aMMP-8 levelsreduce after nonsurgical therapy, such as SRP. Most of thestudies confirmed the effect of smoking on MMP-8 level,except few [29, 34]. Combination of other biomarkers (TIMP-1, IL-6, and IL-1β) and periodontal pathogens (such as T.denticola and P. gingivalis) with aMMP-8 in the detection ofperiodontal inflammationmay increase accuracy, but aMMP-8 alone functions quantitatively very well [6, 7, 16, 17, 78].Both IFMA and DentoELISA were found to be able to dif-ferentiate periodontitis from healthy subjects, but in general,IFMA was more accurate [6, 7, 16, 17]. Results obtained fromAmersham ELISA were not in line with IFMA and Den-toELISA. Lateral flow chair-side/PoC aMMP-8 immunoassaycorrelated well with clinical parameters of periodontitis butwith at least two sites and extended better accuracy than BOP[18, 78]. Notably, invasive aMMP-8 PoC-tests cause alwaysbacteremia, but noninvasive aMMP-8 PoC-tests never [78].
Despite their high sensitivity and specificity, aMMP-8PoC-assays should be mainly used as adjunct tools to theclinical examination; mouth-rinse/salivary assays are usefulfor screening and dip-stick for site-specific personlizedmedical approaches. High levels of oral fluid MMP-8 insubjects with clinically “appearing” healthy periodontium/peri-implantium indicate silent “hidden,” developing futurepreperiodontitis and pre-peri-implantitis indicating earlypreventive supportive periodontal and peri-implant treat-ment [16]. In the case, oral fluid aMMP-8 is not treated tobe <20 ng/ml, and these preperiodontitis and pre-peri-implantitis phases will often develop to be periodontitisand peri-implantitis with on-going collagenolytic APD.
22 International Journal of Dentistry
Elevated oral fluid aMMP-8 thus predicts, reflects, andprecedes future APD, i.e., CAL of the teeth and dentalimplants [3, 7, 17, 76]. (us, aMMP-8 PoC/chair-side testsmake invisible hidden inflammation visible [17, 78].
Our literature review results are in line with previousstudies. A review done by Sorsa et al. concluded that MMP-8is a promising candidate for diagnosis and determination ofprogressive periodontitis and peri-implantitis andmonitoringresponse to therapy and further extend them also to peri-implantitis and provides diagnostic tests to monitor followtreatment and adjunctive medication such as L/SDD [7].
A systematic review and a recent study were done by deMorais et al. and Alassiri et al. and they concluded the sameand recommended use of MMP-8 as a quantitative bio-marker of periodontal and peri-implant diseases adjunctiveto clinical examination [17, 78, 92].
4.1.Clinical Implications. Repeatedly pathologically elevatedlevels of aMMP-8, but not total/latent MMP-8, in oral fluids(mouth rinse, saliva, GCF, and PISF) show the positivecorrelation with the clinical and radiological parameters ofperiodontitis and peri-implantitis. Oral fluid aMMP-8 levelsreduce after periodontal therapy, i.e., SRP combined withhost modulation and/or antimicrobial medication [7, 93].Continuously and sustainably pathologically elevated oralfluid MMP-8 levels indicate and predict sites and patientswith compromised disease outcomes regarding course,treatment, and maintenance. Importantly, the oral fluidPoC/chair-side tests can be utilized to predict time pre-ventive interventions before the development of irreversibletissue destruction (APD) in periodontium and peri-implantium by indentifying and alarming the preper-iodontitis and pre-peri-implantitis [17, 70].
4.2. Limitations of the Study
(1) Only the articles written in English language wereselected.
(2) A literature search was performed in two databases,and additional articles have been chosen by manualsearching, but it is possible that some relevant dataare left behind.
4.3. Recommendations for Future Research. Further studies,especially longitudinal and perspective ones, should beconducted to explore the relationship between aMMP-8with other biomarkers. Some factors such as obesity andgender reported as confounding factors should also beaddressed more in detail. (e relationship between serumconcentration of aMMP-8 and periodontitis and peri-implantitis is still not clear and needs further investigations.
