Armed to the Teeth—The Oral Mucosa Immunity System and Microbiota
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 The oral cavity is inhabited by a wide spectrum of microbial species, and their colonization is mostly based on commensalism. These microbes are part of the normal oral flora, but there are also opportunistic species that can cause oral and systemic ...

The Bigger Picture: Why Oral Mucosa Heals Better Than Skin
Biomolecules, 2021 Wound healing is an essential process to restore tissue integrity after trauma. Large skin wounds such as burns often heal with hypertrophic scarring and contractures, resulting in disfigurements and reduced joint mobility.

Tissue-engineered Oral Mucosa [PDF]
Journal of Dental Research, 2012 Advances in tissue engineering have permitted the three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of human oral mucosa for various in vivo and in vitro applications. Tissue-engineered oral mucosa have been further optimized in recent years for clinical applications as a suitable graft material for intra-oral and extra-oral repair and treatment of soft-tissue ...

In vitro three-dimensional organotypic culture models of the oral mucosa
In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology - Animal, 2021 Three-dimensional, organotypic models of the oral mucosa have been developed to study a wide variety of phenomena occurring in the oral cavity. Although a number of models have been developed in academic research labs, only a few models have been ...
