C-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway activation is essential for dental papilla cells polarization. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 During tooth development, dental papilla cells differentiate into odontoblasts with polarized morphology and cell function. Our previous study indicated that the C-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway regulates human dental papilla cell adhesion ...

A Trichotomous Relation between Papilla Proportion, Gingival Zenith, and Facial Profile [PDF]
International Journal of Prosthodontics and Restorative Dentistry, 2021 Aims and objectives: Gingival morphology, that is, the contour, thickness, height of the papilla, proportion of the papilla, plays a vital role in smile designing and esthetics. These anatomical landmarks may vary based on race, gender, and ethnicity, so
