Dens Invaginatus as a Biomechanical Risk Modifier in Dental Trauma: Finite Element Analysis

Dental Traumatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Traumatic dental injuries are common in childhood and may adversely affect functional and psychosocial well‐being. Dens invaginatus, a developmental anomaly caused by the infolding of the enamel organ during odontogenesis, alters tooth morphology and may influence biomechanical behavior under traumatic loading.

Effect of bFGF on the growth and differentiation of human apical papilla cells: Role of MEK/ERK signaling pathway [PDF]

, 2017
實驗目的：鹼性纖維母細胞生長因子（Basic fibroblast growth factor, bFGF）在生物體內具有多種功能，並且在細胞生長與分化上扮演重要角色，但其對於牙根尖細胞之影響及訊息傳導路徑還未被完全了解。本實驗之目的在探討bFGF對牙根尖細胞生長與分化的影響，以及其中MEK/ERK訊息傳導路徑的角色。 實驗方法：加入不同濃度bFGF於人類牙根尖細胞做刺激與培養，部分組別加入U0126 （MEK/ERK抑制劑）。透過細胞存活率分析 （MTT assay）、反轉錄聚合酶連鎖反應 （RT ...

Grading in Gerodontology: A Framework

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Understanding and anticipating oral health deterioration in older adults requires more than describing their current oral and general health. Risk factors arising from oral, systemic and social domains strongly influence disease progression, care complexity and the ability to maintain function over time.
