Can Wine Modulate Apical Periodontitis Inflammation?

João Eduardo Gomes-Filho*, Renan Dal Fabbro

There are a substantial number of studies suggesting possible benefits of the moderate wine consumption on human health. By the other side, it is known that chronic excessive alcohol consumption has a negative impact on bone health and in many organs. However, epidemiological evidence suggests that moderate consumption of alcoholic beverages may have beneficial effects on bone tissue. This mini-review aims to explore the relationship of wine and apical periodontitis inflammation.
