  • The purpose of our study is new formation of periodontal ligament (PDL) around titanium implants. In this study, we investigated histologically whether cultured periodontal ligament fibroblasts (CPLFs) would form new PDL on titanium implants in beagle dogs. PDL fibroblasts were obtained from upper premolars of dogs and cultured in ${\alpha}-MEM$ supplemented with 10％ FBS. Some CPLFs were cultured on glass-beads-sandblasted titanium specimen. Artificial intradentinal cavities were prepared through alveolar bone to dentin of lower premolars.(omitted)

  • Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) is an inherited metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency in enzymes that participate in the degradation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) such as heparin sulfate and dermatan sulfate. Left untreated, patients show progressive mental and physical deterioration due to deposition of GAGs in organs. Death often occurs due to cardiac or respiratory failure before patients reach their early twenties. MPS has several oral and dental manifestations. An enlarged head, short neck, and open mouth associated with a large tongue are major characteristics of MPS patients. Dental complications can be severe, including unerupted dentition, dentigerous cyst-like follicles, malocclusions, condylar defects, and gingival hyperplasia. A 21-year-old female patient with MPS was described in this article, with special emphasis on oral manifestations and dental treatment.
