Cinnamaldehyde protects against ligature-induced periodontitis through the inhibition of microbial accumulation and inflammatory responses of host immune cells

Daily diet-added CA may be beneficial for oral health care, especially for the control of periodontic disease by suppressing the dysbiosis of biofilms and inhibiting the immunoinflammatory responses of migrated macrophages and local resident periodontal ligament cells to specific pathogen irritations.
