| Research Abstract |
Purpose of this study was to reveal the distribution and the structural analysis of periodontal epithelium and the interrelation between epithelium and non-epithelial cells, and to add the morphological evidences for the physiological functions of the periodontal epithelium. The periodontal epithelium were obtained from Wister strain rats and felines and observed with microscope. In conclusion of the findings with functional considerations, the periodontal epithelium was considered to be a heterogeneous cell population for protection of periodontal ligament, secretion and absorption of substrates, and reception of eccentric stimulations.
