Outline of Final Research Achievements

When clenching the teeth, compressive force is applied directly to the synovium in the disc, causing synovitis of temporomandibular disorders (TMJ disc derangement). We have developed a novel synovitis model using a cyclic loading bioreactor, and cultured human synovial cells in a 3D cell-scaffold construct. We studied pharmaceutical agents for temporomandibular disorders by using this model. This system can asses the effects of pharmaceutical agents for TMD in vitro.
