Abstract
Tooth ankylosis is a pathological condition of periodontal ligament (PDL) restoration after tooth replantation. Platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) has been proposed as a promising factor for preventing tooth ankylosis. Using rat tooth replantation model, we investigated whether PDGF-BB accelerates the repair of PDL after tooth replantation without ankylosis, and its molecular mechanisms. In PDGF-BB pretreated replanted teeth (PDGF-BB group), ankylosis was markedly reduced and functionally organized PDL collagen fibers were restored; the mechanical strength of the healing PDL was restored to an average of 76% of that in non-replanted normal teeth at 21 days. The numbers of PDGF-Rβ- and BrdU-positive cells in the periodontal tissues of the PDGF-BB group were greater than those of atelocollagen pretreated replanted teeth (AC group). Moreover, in the PDGF-BB group, the periodontal tissues had fewer osteocalcin-positive cells and decreased number of nuclear β-catenin-positive cells compared to those in the AC group. In vitro analyses showed that PDGF-BB increased the proliferation and migration of human periodontal fibroblasts. PDGF-BB downregulated mRNA expressions of RUNX2 and ALP, and inhibited upregulatory effects of Wnt3a on β-catenin, AXIN2, RUNX2, COL1A1, and ALP mRNA expressions. These findings indicate that in tooth replantation, topical PDGF-BB treatment enhances cell proliferation and migration, and inhibits canonical Wnt signaling activation in bone-tooth ankylosis, leading to occlusal loading of the PDL tissues and subsequent functional restoration of the healing PDL. This suggests a possible clinical application of PDGF-BB to reduce ankylosis after tooth replantation and promote proper regeneration of PDL.

Abstract
The epithelial cell rests of Malassez (ERM) are essential in preventing ankylosis between the alveolar bone and the tooth (dentoalveolar ankylosis). Despite extensive research, the mechanism by which ERM cells suppress ankylosis remains uncertain; perhaps its varied population is to reason. Therefore, in this study, eighteen unique clones of ERM (CRUDE) were isolated using the single-cell limiting dilution and designated as ERM 1-18. qRT-PCR, ELISA, and western blot analyses revealed that ERM-2 and -3 had the highest and lowest amelogenin expression, respectively. Mineralization of human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (HPDLF) was reduced in vitro co-culture with CRUDE ERM, ERM-2, and -3 cells, but recovered when an anti-amelogenin antibody was introduced. Transplanted rat molars grown in ERM-2 cell supernatants produced substantially less bone than those cultured in other cell supernatants; inhibition was rescued when an anti-amelogenin antibody was added to the supernatants. Anti-Osterix antibody staining was used to confirm the development of new bones. In addition, next-generation sequencing (NGS) data were analysed to discover genes related to the distinct roles of CRUDE ERM, ERM-2, and ERM-3. According to this study, amelogenin produced by ERM cells helps to prevent dentoalveolar ankylosis and maintain periodontal ligament (PDL) space, depending on their clonal diversity.

Abstract
Inferior alveolar nerve denervation causes appreciable decreases in the distribution of epithelial rests of Malassez. To explore roles of the Malassez epithelium, we attempted to evaluate possible changes in dento-alveolar tissues surrounding this epithelium by experimental denervation. We found that denervation led to dento-alveolar ankylosis with a decrease in the width of the periodontal spaces. Interestingly, with regeneration of the Malassez epithelium 10 weeks after the denervation, the periodontal space width showed a correspondingly significant increase. These findings suggest that the Malassez epithelium may be involved in the maintenance of periodontal space and that sensory innervation might be indirectly associated with it. In addition, it is of interest that denervation activated root resorption of the coronal root surface and that the consequently resorbed lacunae were repaired by cellular cementum. It is suggested that Malassez epithelium may negatively regulate root resorption and induce acellular cementum formation.

Abstract
A 12.5-year-old dog was presented for severe periodontal disease and bilateral maxillary enlargement. Radiographs of the maxilla showed generalized root resorption, ankylosis, and rarefaction of bone with focal radiodense areas. Surgical tooth extraction of multiple maxillary teeth and bilateral incisional biopsies of the periodontal tissue and maxilla in the legion of the maxillary fourth premolars were performed. Histopathologic examination showed features typical of fully differentiated periodontal ligament with abundant cementum/alveolar lining bone and sparce odontogenic epithelial cell rests. Histopathology in conjunction with radiographic and clinical signs suggested a diagnosis of bilateral periodontal ligament hamartoma. Examination 3-months postoperatively indicated uncomplicated healing of the extraction and biopsy sites with no resolution of the maxillary enlargement.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Previous studies have found ankylosis occurs as a part of the inflammatory process of aseptic root resorption initiated in a rat model. The physiologic mechanisms behind the development of dentoalveolar ankylosis and healing response are still unclear. While receptor activator of nuclear factor-κβ ligand (RANKL), receptor activator of nuclear factor-κβ (RANK) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) have gained momentum in the understanding of resorption, no study to date has investigated their role in dentoalveolar ankylosis. AIMS The aims of this study were to investigate if, and when, ankylosis occurred in the rat PDL, whether the resolution of ankylosis occurred with time and, finally, to observe the expression of RANKL, RANK and OPG during the ankylotic process. MATERIALS AND METHODS Dry ice was applied for 20 minutes to the upper right first molar crown of 15 eight-week-old, male Sprague-Dawley rats. An additional three rats served as untreated external controls. Groups of three rats were sacrificed after the thermal insult on day 0, 4, 7, 14 and 28 respectively. Each maxilla was dissected out and processed for histological examination and RANKL, OPG and RANK immunohistochemistry. RESULTS By the use of light microscopy and H&E staining, no ankylosis was detected in the external control group and the experimental groups at days 0 and 4. On day 7, disruption within the periodontal ligament was observed in the interradicular region and the initial signs of ankylosis were seen in the form of finger-like projections extending from the alveolar bone towards the cementum. Fourteen days after the thermal insult, all animals exhibited extensive ankylosis that spanned the entire interradicular periodontal space. At 28 days, the development of ankylosis appeared to have ceased and repair was observed, together with an intact periodontal ligament in all but one rat. Positive staining results were obtained with RANKL, RANK and OPG antibodies. The expressions of RANKL, RANK and OPG were similar in the external control group, 0-, 4-, and 28-day experimental groups. In the 7- and 14-day experimental groups, RANKL, RANK and OPG were expressed in the blood vessels within the ankylotic regions. CONCLUSIONS During the development of ankylosis and its resolution, it was concluded from their simultaneous presence that there is a complex interaction between RANKL, RANK and OPG that requires further investigation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to assess the histological alterations that occurred in the periodontal area of rat molars submitted to induced tooth movement (ITM) right after an intentional trauma (subluxation). METHODS Forty adult male Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus albinus) were selected. The animals were divided into eight groups (n=5), according to the combination of variables: Group 1--control (neither trauma nor ITM); Group 2--ITM; Groups 3, 4, 5 and 6--dentoalveolar trauma groups corresponding, respectively, to 1, 3, 8 and 10 days after trauma; Groups 7 and 8 - the animals' molars were subjected to a 900 cN impact and, one and three days after the trauma event, tooth movement was induced. The rats' maxillary first molars were mesially moved during seven days with a closed coil (50 cN). After the experimental period of each group, the animals were sacrificed by anesthetic overdose and the right maxillas were removed and processed for histological analysis under light microscopy. RESULTS In the animals of group 3, 4, 5 and 6, the histological alterations were not very significant. Consequently, the effect of induced tooth movement right after a subluxation event (groups 7 and 8) was very similar to those described for Group 2. CONCLUSIONS There was no difference in the quality of periodontal repair when ITM was applied to teeth that had suffered a subluxation trauma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the healing events in degree III furcation defects in dogs following the application of the combination of an enamel matrix derivative with a biphasic calcium phosphate (Emdogain Plus). METHOD AND MATERIALS Seventeen degree III furcation defects, 5 mm high and 4 mm wide, were created in 9 dogs. In both groups, the defects were conditioned with EDTA. One defect was treated with Emdogain Plus (n = 9), while the contralateral defect serving as control remained empty (n = 8). The defects in both groups were fully covered by coronally repositioned flaps. After 5 months of healing, histologic and histometric analysis was preformed. RESULTS A significant amount of new attachment and bone formation was observed in both control and test specimens. However, in a number of control specimens, ankylosis was also observed. In the control and test groups, respectively, the mean new cementum length was 10.8 ± 2.1 mm and 8.6 ± 3.2 mm; the mean periodontal ligament length was 7.6 ± 3.8 mm and 8.1 ± 4.0 mm. The mean new bone height was 4.4 ± 1.3 mm and 4.3 ± 1.6 mm in the control and test groups, respectively. No statistical differences were found between the two groups in terms of amount of cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone regeneration. CONCLUSION The present study failed to show higher amounts of newly formed cementum and bone following treatment of acute degree III mandibular furcation defects following use of Emdogain Plus compared with a coronally advanced flap. Emdogain Plus seems to have a protective role against ankylosis in this type of defect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is hypothesised that osteoprotegerin (OPG), as an osteoclast antagonist, may offer molecular control over the process of orthodontic root resorption. Previous work investigating OPG in a rat periodontal ligament (PDL) ankylosis model found no inhibitory effect on osteoclasts and odontoclasts when given at a recommended dosage of 2.5 mg/kg. It was considered that traumatically-induced PDL inflammation produces mediators and cytokines with the ability to stimulate clast cell differentiation and counter the effects of OPG. AIMS The present study investigated the presence of Tumour Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-alpha) and its receptor Tumour Necrosis Factor Receptor 1 (TNFR1) in a PDL sterile inflammatory model. METHODS Dry ice was applied for 15 minutes to the upper right first molar crown of eighteen, 8-week-old, male Sprague-Dawley rats of which 9 were injected with OPG at a dose of 2.5 mg/kg of body weight at the time of freezing. After 7 days, the rats were sacrificed and each maxilla processed for immunohistochemical identification of TNF-alpha and TNFR1. RESULTS Results showed the presence of root resorption in varying amounts and locations in both experimental and control rats. Reparative processes appeared greater in the OPG-treated rats, often with the presence of an ankylotic union. Immunolabelling showed the presence of TNF-alpha and TNFR1 in the sterile inflammation located mainly in the interradicular PDL area. More definitive labelling appeared in OPG-treated rats. CONCLUSION The results indicated that TNF-alpha, and its receptor TNFR1, by their presence, may modify OPG effectiveness by offering an alternative pathway for osteoclast formation, which counters the anti-resorptive effects of OPG.

Abstract
A favorable prognosis after tooth avulsion depends on some variables, such as the extra-alveolar period and storage medium. Vitality of the periodontal ligament cells is considered a critical factor for a successful outcome without root resorption. The dental surgeon is provided with clinical information and radiographic findings to establish a diagnosis and may rely on current available guidelines. Once trauma has occurred, treatment must be quick and effective, and periodic follow-up must be performed. Clinical, radiographic, and histologic characteristics for each type of root resorption due to tooth replantation are presented, with the aim to provide information for the diagnosis and treatment of healing complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Histometric assessments are routinely used to evaluate biologic events ascertained in histologic sections acquired from animal and human studies. The objective of this study was to evaluate the intra- and inter-examiner reproducibility of histometric assessments in the supraalveolar periodontal defect model. METHODS Histometric analysis using incandescent and polarized light microscopy, an attached digital camera system, and a PC-based image analysis system including a custom program for the supraalveolar periodontal defect model was performed on histologic sections acquired from one jaw quadrant in each of 12 dogs. The animals had received an experimental protocol including implantation of a coral biomaterial and guided tissue regeneration (GTR) barrier devices, and were evaluated following a 4-week healing interval. Histometric parameters were recorded and repeated within a 3-month interval by two examiners following brief training. Intra- and inter-examiner reproducibility was assessed using the intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC). RESULTS Most parameters showed high intra-examiner ICCs. Parameters including defect height, connective tissue repair, bone regeneration (height/area), formation of a junctional epithelium, positioning of the GTR device, ankylosis, root resorption, and defect area yielded an ICC> or 0..9. The ICCs for bone density and biomaterial density were somewhat lower (0.8 and 0.7, respectively). The inter-examiner reproducibility was somewhat lower compared to the intra-examiner reproducibility. Nevertheless, the ICCs were generally high (ICC range: 0.6-0.9). CONCLUSIONS Histometric evaluations in the supraalveolar periodontal defect model yield highly reproducible results, in particular when a single examiner performs the histometric measurements, even when the examiner was exposed to limited training.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of occlusal loading on recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2)-induced bone and cementum formation in a previously established rat model of periodontal regeneration during the early and late stages of wound healing. METHODS 64 Wistar rats were divided into 8 groups and had surgically created fenestrated defects on the right side of the mandible involving the removal of bone and exposure of the first and second molar roots. Four groups had their right maxillary molars extracted 2 weeks prior to surgery. Ten microl of 100 ug/ml BMP-2 in a collagen membrane was placed in extracted (hypofunctional) and non-extracted (functional) groups (BMPe and BMPf, respectively) while control groups had collagen membrane only (CONe and CONf). Groups were sacrificed at 10 (BMPe, BMPf, CONe, CONf) or 35 days (BMP35e, BMP35f, CON35e, CON35f) postoperatively and tissues processed for histological examination. Transverse 5 microm sections were stained for identification of new bone, ankylosis and cementum formation. RESULTS At 10 days, CONe developed greater bone growth compared with CONf (P<0.05), while both BMP groups developed greater bone compared with controls. However, BMPe developed more ankylosis compared with both CONe and CONf while BMPf was significantly greater than CONf only (P<0.05). BMPf only developed significantly greater new cementum compared with controls. At 35 days, BMP35f developed greater bone growth compared with all other groups including BMP35e (P<0.05) and unlike results at 10 days, no differences were apparent between CON35f and CON35e. Unwanted bone growth beyond the defect margin anteriorly was significantly greater in BMP35f. CONCLUSIONS Results suggest hypofunction stimulates early bone formation. Furthermore, hypofunction and BMP-2 increase the development of transient ankylosis. However, after wound healing is complete, function augments the early effects of BMP-2-induced new bone growth indicating remodeling to physiological levels does not occur. Finally, occlusal loading is both an important stimulus for remodeling and establishment of the periodontal ligament space during early wound healing as well as enhancing BMP-2-induced cementogenesis.

Abstract
The extent of infraposition of replanted and subsequently ankylosed permanent incisors was examined in a longitudinal study of 52 patients. Study cast models were made during the follow-up period. Infraposition was evaluated on frontal photos of the study cast models taken parallel with the occlusal plane. The extent of infraposition was defined as the difference between the position of the incisal edge of the replanted incisor and the adjacent non-injured incisor in apico-coronal direction, measured with a digital caliper at 50x magnification of the negatives. The precision of this measuring procedure was 2.9% and the accuracy 2.0%. Marked infraposition was identified if the tooth was traumatized before the age of 16 in boys and before the age of 14 in girls. In addition, infraposition was observed when ankylosis developed in patients aged 20-30 years, with a yearly mean infraposition rate of 0.07 mm/year (range: 0.02-0.21 mm/year) in males and 0.07 mm/year (range: 0.00-0.12 mm/year) in females. The latter findings supported the concept of slow continuous eruption of the teeth. This phenomenon may have implications not only for the treatment of traumatized teeth but also for the treatment of tooth loss by osseointegrated implants, which represent an analogue to the ankylosed replanted tooth.

Abstract
Impaction of a primary tooth is a rare occurrence compared to impaction of a permanent tooth. Impaction should be differentiated from reimpaction, a condition in which an erupted tooth loses its apical movement and impaired development of the alveolar bone surrounding the tooth occurs. In dental ankylosis, the height of the alveolar process stops in the affected area, the adjoining teeth continue to move occlusally, and neighboring teeth drift. The author discusses the uncertain etiology of reimpaction. The history of a three-year-old patient is presented.
