description | Abstract Background To explore the relationship between changes in salivary cytokine levels and the occurrence of white spot lesions in adolescents receiving clear aligner orthodontic treatment and investigate the predictive value of various factors for lesion occurrence. Methods We retrospectively analyzed sixthy eight adolescent in the permanent dentition period, who received clear aligner orthodontics in our hospital were randomly divided into two groups according to the occurrence or aggravation of white spot lesions after treatment. The general condition of the oral cavity was analyzed, saliva was collected, and inflammation-related cytokines with varying transcription levels between groups were screened by transcriptome analysis. The expression levels of inflammatory cytokines in the saliva of the patients in the two groups were measured, and the risk factors for white spot lesions were screened by correlation analysis and binary logistic regression analysis. The value of the independent and combined application of risk factors for predicting the occurrence of white spot lesions in adolescent patients after invisible orthodontic treatment was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results Transcriptome and GO and KEGG pathway analyses showed that there were differences in the transcription levels of inflammatory cytokines such as CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL8, CCL3, CCL4, IL-1β and IL-2 between groups. The levels of CXCL8, CCL3, CCL4, IL-1β and IL-2 in the saliva of patients with white spot lesions were significantly higher in patients after invisible orthodontic treatment (P < 0.05). Correlation analysis and binary logistic regression analysis showed that elevated levels of CXCL8, IL-1β and IL-2 were independent risk factors for the occurrence of white spot lesions (P < 0.05). CXCL8 had the highest independent predictive value for the occurrence of white spot lesions (AUC = 0.773, P < 0.05), and the combination of IL-1β and IL-2 was also of high value in predicting the occurrence of white spot lesions. Conclusion After invisible orthodontic treatment, the oral microenvironment, including inflammatory cytokine levels, in adolescent patients changes; in particular, the levels of inflammatory cytokines such as CXCLs and ILs change. CXCL8 expression is significantly associated with the occurrence of white spot lesions and is an important potential target for the prevention and treatment of white spot lesions in the future. |
