The role of epigenetics in oral regeneration with Farah Asa'ad
In the latest episode of the Next ReGeneration podcast, hosts Anina and Elena welcome Farah Asa'ad, an expert in epigenetics from the Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. Together they take you on a journey into epigenetics—the science of how lifestyle and external factors influence gene activity. From her award-winning research to the role of epigenetics in periodontitis and peri-implantitis, Asa'ad unpacks complex mechanisms in a way that’s easy to understand.
She explains how bacteria can alter the epigenetic profile of key immune genes, potentially leading to chronic inflammation and tissue destruction. Additionally, she discusses how epigenetic therapies, such as targeted drugs, could one day help restore oral health at a molecular level.
Could this be the future of personalised dentistry?
