Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aimed to analyze the effects of the enlarged apical foramina on the pulpal healing process using a model for tooth replantation/transplantation. After the extraction of ICR or GFP mouse teeth, the tooth roots from the experimental group were shortened before replantation/transplantation, whereas in the control group the teeth were immediately replanted. The occurrence of abundant tertiary dentin formation was observed in the resected teeth, whereas, divergent healing patterns including dentin, bone, and fibrous tissues were observed in the control group. Tooth transplantation using GFP or wild-type mice demonstrated that the root resection accelerated the revascularization and donor-derived odontoblast-like cell differentiation, resulting in the rapid pulpal healing. In conclusion, the root resection accelerates the dental pulp regeneration following tooth replantation/transplantation due to the better environment for revascularization in the replants.
