Abstract
Mast cells play important roles in the maintenance of many physiological functions as well as in the pathophysiology of diseases. Mast cells are involved in the inflammatory mechanisms of many systemic diseases. In this pandemic period, their role in physiological and pathological host inflammatory reactions in tissue disruption following SARS-CoV-2 infection has been stressed. A review of the literature was carried out by entering the key words "Mast Cells" AND "Oral Diseases" AND "Role of Mast Cells in Periodontitis". The results show us that mast cells are definitely involved in many oral diseases including periodontitis. Further in vivo and in vitro studies are needed to further investigate the specific role of the cells in physiological and pathological inflammation.
