Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It has been impossible to reproduce tooth enamel when it was destroyed by caries. The standard treatment for a cavity is to fill the tooth by using restorative materials. Therefore, it has been expected that the elucidation of the differentiation and maturity of ameloblast to form enamel, and the mechanism to produce the substrate. However, it has been difficult to gather ameloblast from the dental germ in the developmental process. This study investigated a new technique to gather ameloblast effectively from a dental germ.
