Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Several case reports have described dental anomalies in permanent teeth caused by chemotherapy administration during tooth germ development. In the present study, clinical and basic examinations were performed to investigate the correlation between chemotherapy and dental abnormalities in children. For the clinical research portion, detailed of 39 patients were collected and dental abnormalities detemined by vieweing orthopantomograph images, which showed their occurrence in 32 cases, with atypical root formation most commonly noted. To investigate the effects of chemotherapy on dental development, immunohistological examinations of tooth germs in a mouse model treated with cyclophosphamide were done. Cytokeratin and vimentin expression levels were decreased in a cyclophosphamide dose-dependent manner, and defective root formation was seen. These results suggest that chemotherapy is strongly correlated with dental abnormalities.
