Mathematical Model for Analysis of Translational Displacements of Tooth Root

Mathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2015
Analytical modeling of stress-strain state of a periodontal ligament in the case of the translational displacement of a tooth root was carried out. The tooth root was assumed as a rigid body.

Erythropoietin receptor signal is crucial for periodontal ligament stem cell-based tissue reconstruction in periodontal disease

Scientific Reports
Alveolar bone loss caused by periodontal disease eventually leads to tooth loss. Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) are the tissue-specific cells for maintaining and repairing the periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone.

A morphological survey of root grooves and their influence on periodontal attachment loss

Saudi Dental Journal, 2011
Periodontal health reflects a balance between harmful and protective elements in the gingival marginal area. The total plaque mass, specific periodontopathogens, the tooth morphology, and local environmental factors may challenge this balance.

Material properties of periodontal ligaments

Postępy Higieny i Medycyny Doświadczalnej, 2013
The mechanism of orthodontic teeth movement is not entirely explained. The principal reaction on tissues at the cellular and molecular level is initiated by the force applied to the tooth crown and transferred in turn upon the periodontal ligament (PDL).

Changes in the Distribution of Periodontal Nerve Fibers during Dentition Transition in the Cat.

PLoS ONE, 2015
The periodontal ligament has a rich sensory nerve supply which originates from the trigeminal ganglion and trigeminal mesencephalic nucleus. Although various types of mechanoreceptors have been reported in the periodontal ligament, the Ruffini ending is ...
