The vasculature of the rat molar periodontal ligament

Journal of Periodontal Research, 1986
The vascular architecture of the rat molar periodontal ligament was investigated using the SEM vascular casting technique. Vascular patterns varied within the different regions of the tooth socket. A different microvascular arrangement was found to be associated with (i) the buccal and lingual walls (ii) the interdental septum and (iii) the ...

Changes in characteristics of periodontal ligament stem cells in spheroid culture.

Journal of Periodontal Research, 2018
OBJECTIVES The periodontal ligament (PDL) has important roles in maintaining homeostasis, wound healing, and regeneration of periodontal tissues by supplying stem/progenitor cells. Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) have mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-

Mechanical characterization of bovine periodontal ligament

Journal of Periodontal Research, 2002
This study is part of a research program that aims to develop a constitutive three‐dimensional model of the periodontal ligament (PDL) through the identification of pertinent material parameters. As part of this program, bovine PDL was utilized to establish stress‐strain responses under tensile and compressive loading conditions.

Periodontal ligament anesthesia — A clinical evaluation

Dental Traumatology, 1986
Abstract Periodontal ligament (PDL) injection was used either as an alternative or as a supplement to conventional anesthesia techniques (CA) in connection with endodontic treatment of 339 teeth. Adequate analgesia was obtained more frequently with CA than with PDL.

Effects of periodontal disease on the proteomic profile of the periodontal ligament

Journal of Proteomics
Periodontal disease affects over 1 billion people globally. This study investigated how periodontitis affects the protein profile of the periodontal ligament (PDL) in rats. Eight Holtzman rats were divided into the control and experimental periodontitis groups. The PDL was isolated using laser capture microdissection, and protein extracts were analyzed

Bone Response of Loaded Periodontal Ligament

Current Osteoporosis Reports, 2016
The tooth-periodontal ligament-alveolar bone complex acts symbiotically to dissipate the mechanical loads incurred during mastication and/or orthodontic tooth movement. The periodontal ligament functions both in the tension and compression. At the molecular and celleular levels, the loads in the periodontal ligament trigger mechanobiological events in ...

The periodontal ligament injection as a primary technique

Journal of Endodontics, 1990
The periodontal ligament injection has been promoted as a primary anesthesia technique. To be useful, however, any anesthetic approach must meet several criteria. First, there must be adequate depth of anesthesia; second, onset of anesthesia should be sufficiently rapid; third, duration must be sufficient to complete the procedure; fourth, discomfort ...

Periodontal Ligament: Structural and Clinical Correlates

Dental Update, 2004
This paper reviews certain structural aspects of the periodontal ligament. These include collagen (type, crimping and fibril diameters), ground substance (functions), cells (fibroblast morphology, cell heterogenicity and distinguishing of cell phenotypes, cell kinetics, ‘foetal’ characteristics), nerves (presence of neuropeptides) and blood vessels ...
