NMDA receptor mechanisms contribute to neuroplasticity induced in caudalis nociceptive neurons by tooth pulp stimulation.
We recently demonstrated that application of mustard oil (MO), a small-fiber excitant and inflammatory irritant, to the rat maxillary molar tooth pulp induces significant and prolonged increases in jaw muscle electromyographic (EMG) activity that are suggestive of central neuroplasticity. Because small-fiber afferents, including pulp afferents, access nociceptive neurons in trigeminal (V) subnu...
متن کاملTooth wear as a means to quantify intra-specific variations in diet and chewing movements
In mammals, tooth function, and its efficiency, depends both on the mechanical properties of the food and on chewing dynamics. These aspects have rarely been studied in combination and/or at the intra-specific level. Here we applied 3D dental surface texture analysis to a sample of field voles (Microtus agrestis) trapped from Finnish Lapland at different seasons and localities to test for inter...
متن کاملEffectiveness of diaphragmatic stimulation with single-channel electrodes in rabbits*
Every year, a large number of individuals become dependent on mechanical ventilation because of a loss of diaphragm function. The most common causes are cervical spinal trauma and neuromuscular diseases. We have developed an experimental model to evaluate the performance of electrical stimulation of the diaphragm in rabbits using single-channel electrodes implanted directly into the muscle. Var...
متن کاملComputed Tomographic Evaluation of Tooth Growth in Response to Diode Laser Irradiation in Rabbits
Background: While many dental procedures induce pulpal damage by increase the temperature, this study was established to evaluate the thermally effect of different laser methods on pulp, oral soft and hard tissues. Objectives: In this study, laser irradiation applied to measure how increased in power output can influence on dental pulp by using CT images. Methods: Ten adult New Zealand white ra...
