Changes in response properties of periodontal mechanoreceptors during tooth movement in rats.

چکیده
Using an in vitro model, we investigated the chronological effects of orthodontic force on the response properties of periodontal mechanoreceptors (PMRs) in the rat mandibular first molar (M1). Experimental tooth movement was obtained by attaching a super-elastic titanium-nickel (Ti-Ni) alloy closed coil spring from the mandibular incisors to the right M1. On 1, 2, 3, 4, 7 and 14 days after the appliances were set, three right mandibular molars were extracted and direct stimulation with von Frey hairs was applied to the PMRs remaining in the tooth sockets of right M1. Single unit discharges were recorded from the inferior alveolar nerve. Following results were obtained; (1) in the 1-, 2- and 3-day groups, the mechanical thresholds were significantly lower than those in the control group. In the 4-day group, the mechanical threshold was significantly higher than that of the 3-day group. (2) In the 3-, 4-, 7- and 14-day groups, the conduction velocities of A(beta) units were lower than those in the control group. These results imply that orthodontic force applied to M1 induced functional changes in the PMRs within a few days, suggesting that the PMR seems to respond to orthodontic force at early stage of tooth movement.

متن کاملTooth movement and changes in periodontal tissue in response to orthodontic force in rats vary depending on the time of day the force is applied.
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there are any differences in tooth movement or in the response of periodontal tissue to orthodontic force when the force is applied at different times of the day. One hundred 6-week-old male Wistar rats were divided into one control group without force application and three experimental groups based on the time of day the force was applied to...
متن کاملPerturbed oral motor control due to anesthesia during intraoral manipulation of food
Sensory information from periodontal mechanoreceptors (PMRs) surrounding the roots of natural teeth is important for optimizing the positioning of food and adjustment of force vectors during precision biting. The present experiment was designed to test the hypothesis; that reduction of afferent inputs from the PMRs, by anesthesia, perturbs the oral fine motor control and related jaw movements d...
