Biomechanics of a bone-periodontal ligament-tooth fibrous joint. [PDF]
J Biomech, 2013 This study investigates bone-tooth association under compression to identify strain amplified sites within the bone-periodontal ligament (PDL)-tooth fibrous joint. Our results indicate that the biomechanical response of the joint is due to a combinatorial response of the constitutive properties of organic, inorganic, and fluid components.

The plastic nature of the human bone-periodontal ligament-tooth fibrous joint. [PDF]
Bone, 2013 This study investigates bony protrusions within a narrowed periodontal ligament space (PDL-space) of a human bone-PDL-tooth fibrous joint by mapping structural, biochemical, and mechanical heterogeneity. Higher resolution structural characterization was achieved via complementary atomic force microscopy (AFM), nano-transmission X-ray microscopy (nano ...

Inhibition of fibrous adhesion formation in the temporomandibular joint of tenascin-C knockout mice
European Journal of Histochemistry, 2014 Tenascin-C (TNC) is a large hexameric extracellular matrix glycoprotein that is expressed in developing organs and tumors. It has been reported that TNC is expressed in inflamed synovial membranes and deformed discs of temporomandibular joint (TMJ ...

Degenerative joint disease in the temporomandibular joint with fibrous ankylosis in a rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) [PDF]
Laboratory Animal Research, 2020 Background Ankylosis in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is known to have various etiologies in veterinary medicine. We observed a case of fibrous ankylosis of the TMJ in a newly imported rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta).

In situ compressive loading and correlative noninvasive imaging of the bone-periodontal ligament-tooth fibrous joint. [PDF]
J Vis Exp, 2014 This study demonstrates a novel biomechanics testing protocol. The advantage of this protocol includes the use of an in situ loading device coupled to a high resolution X-ray microscope, thus enabling visualization of internal structural elements under ...

Functional Adaptation of LPS‐affected Dentoalveolar Fibrous Joints in Rats [PDF]
Journal of Periodontal Research, 2021 INTRODUCTION The functional interplay between cementum of the root and alveolar bone of the socket is tuned by a uniquely positioned 70-80 µm wide fibrous and lubricious ligament in a dentoalveolar joint (DAJ). In this study, structural and biomechanical

Elastic discontinuity due to ectopic calcification in a human fibrous joint. [PDF]
Acta Biomater, 2013 Disease can alter natural ramp-like elastic gradients to steeper step-like profiles at soft-hard tissue interfaces. Prolonged function can further mediate mechanochemical events that alter biomechanical response within diseased organs. In this study, a human bone-tooth fibrous joint was chosen as a model system, in which the effects of bacterial ...
