| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is the establishment of artificial dental root, which is functionally close to the natural teeth. In the process of the developing technique to make periodontal ligament (PDL) on the surface of titanium artificial root, we investigated the character of PDL cells invitro or in vivo. The main results observed were as follows.
1. The primary cultivation of human PDL cells could be obtained at the rate of success 90% or more with our improved method. 2. Human PDL cultured cells could be adsorbed on the titanium surface. 3. Cell-Tak coating could accelerate the absorbance of human PDL cells onto titanium surface. 4. The growth velocity of PDL cells was the most accelerated in the medium supplemented with 10% human serum. 5. The polished and glass beads-sandblasted titanium surface were appropriate for the growth of PDL cells. 6. The factor produced from PDL cells could suppress the induction of osteoclast from the cultured peripheral blood lymphocytes and monocytes (PBL). 7. Gingival cells and osteoblast originated from alveolar bone didn't produce this suppressing factor. 8. Although number of osteoclast induced from the PBL could be increased by the stimulation of some bacteria from periodontal lesion, the addition of the culture fluid of PDL cells significantly decreased the induction of osteoclast from PBL stimulated with bacterias. 9. ALPase activity of PDL cells was not suppressed by co-culture with PBL. 10. As compared with gingival cells, ALPase activity and collagen synthesis of PDL cells was remarkably higher. 11.10th Passage of cells did not show in any defective effect on differentiating function of PDL cells.
Concerning casting system of titanium, development on the investment and the technical improvement on design of sprue and vent were also attained.
