Ultrastructural changes in feline dental pulp with periodontal disease

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2003
AbstractA light and transmission electron microscopic study was conducted on dental pulp on cats suffering periodontal disease. After extraction, pulp tissues were fixed and embedded in Epon‐Araldite. Thick layers of predentin (50 μm) and odontoblasts (30 μm) were observed. In thin sections, odontoblasts showed many mitochondria and secretary vesicles.

Mineral‐targeted alkaline phosphatase improves bone graft‐mediated alveolar bone defect healing in mice

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Alveolar bone loss challenges tooth retention and implant placement. Freeze‐dried bone allograft (FDBA) is widely used for alveolar ridge preservation but has limitations in resorption rate and healing time. In this proof‐of‐concept study, we tested whether pro‐mineralization enzyme, tissue‐nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP ...
