Untargeted Metabolomic and Lipidomic Profiling as a Supplemental Assay for Diagnosis of Periodontitis

July 28, 2026 | 12:00 PM ET

Traditional methods for diagnosing periodontitis rely on clinical examinations and radiographic imaging, but these approaches may not fully capture the underlying biological changes associated with disease progression. In this webinar, Dr. Alexandru Movila, Associate Professor at the Indiana University School of Dentistry, explores how untargeted metabolomics and lipidomics can serve as powerful supplemental tools for diagnosing periodontal disease and advancing oral health research.

The presentation highlights the potential of untargeted mass spectrometry-based analyses to identify novel biomarkers, improve disease characterization, and provide deeper insight into the biological mechanisms driving periodontal disease. Watch this webinar to learn how metabolomics and lipidomics are expanding the capabilities of periodontal research, enabling more comprehensive biomarker discovery and supporting the development of next-generation diagnostic approaches for periodontitis.
