[PMID: 33771147 PMCID: PMC7995728 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-021-01510-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2020] [Accepted: 03/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The objective of this scoping review was to systematically explore the current knowledge of cellular and molecular processes that drive and control trauma-associated root resorption, to identify research gaps and to provide a basis for improved prevention and therapy. Methods Four major bibliographic databases were searched according to the research question up to February 2021 and supplemented manually. Reports on physiologic, histologic, anatomic and clinical aspects of root resorption following dental trauma were included. Duplicates were removed, the collected material was screened by title/abstract and assessed for eligibility based on the full text. Relevant aspects were extracted, organized and summarized. Results 846 papers were identified as relevant for a qualitative summary. Consideration of pathophysiological mechanisms concerning trauma-related root resorption in the literature is sparse. Whereas some forms of resorption have been explored thoroughly, the etiology of others, particularly invasive cervical resorption, is still under debate, resulting in inadequate diagnostics and heterogeneous clinical recommendations. Effective therapies for progressive replacement resorptions have not been established. Whereas the discovery of the RANKL/RANK/OPG system is essential to our understanding of resorptive processes, many questions regarding the functional regulation of osteo-/odontoclasts remain unanswered. Conclusions This scoping review provides an overview of existing evidence, but also identifies knowledge gaps that need to be addressed by continued laboratory and clinical research. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s12903-021-01510-6.

Korean J Orthod 2018; 48:339-345. [PMID: 30206533 PMCID: PMC6123074 DOI: 10.4041/kjod.2018.48.5.339] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2016] [Revised: 09/12/2017] [Accepted: 09/26/2017] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective The purpose of this study was to clarify the effects of continuous force application for extrusive tipping movement and occlusal interference on periapical root resorption in the rat mandibular first molar. Methods We constructed an appliance comprising a titanium screw implant with a cobalt-chromium post as the anchorage unit and a nickel-titanium closed coil spring (50 cN) as the active unit. Force was applied on the mandibular left first molar of rats for 8 (n = 10) and 15 days (n = 10; experimental groups), with the tooth in occlusion. Five rats were included as a non-treated control group to examine the body effect of the appliance. Active root resorption lacunae, identified using tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, were evaluated in terms of the length, depth, and area. Results The rat mandibular first molars were mesially tipped and extruded in the occlusal direction. This mesio-occlusal tipping movement and occlusion resulted in the formation of a compression zone and active root resorption lacunae in the distoapical third of the distal roots. However, there was no significant difference in the amount of root resorption between the two experimental groups. The control group did not exhibit any active root resorption lacunae. Conclusions Periapical root resorption was induced by continuous extrusive tipping force and occlusal interference in rat mandibular molars. These data suggest that we orthodontists had better take care not to induce occlusal interference during our orthodontic treatment.

Abstract
A morphological and electron microscopic study of bone from patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) has been performed. Bone from OI patients from various anatomical sites has been compared with that from normal, age-, site-, and sex-matched controls. The morphology of OI bone appeared variable among patients and sites of bone examined. Immature woven bone and a poor lamellar pattern were the significant morphological features and demonstrated that OI could not be characterized on the basis of a single histological pattern. At the ultrastructural level, a number of previously unreported features were evident. Abnormal collagen fibers and an altered mineral composition were found in many OI patients, however, the panoramic heterogeneity between clinical types and indeed within a single clinical type made it difficult to classify OI in this manner. The presence of intermitochondrial inclusions containing calcium and phosphorus and the presence of a stromal calcification in the bone in some OI patients suggested an abnormal mineral formation. Qualitatively, no obvious difference in the number of osteoblasts or osteoclasts was observed. The morphology and ultrastructure of OI bone were good indicators of the disease and serve a role in assessing the progress of a patient through diagnosis and treatment. This report presents new ultrastructural findings in collagen and in mineral formation in OI compared with normal human bone.

Abstract
Traumatic root resorption in a mouse model has been shown to coincide with a decline in naturally occurring serum antibody levels to dentin. It has been proposed that root resorption may be dentin antibody mediated. The purpose of this study was to examine the traumatic root resorption response in mice after hyperimmunization with a crude tooth extract (dentin). The hypothesis of this study was that elevated dentin antibody titers would positively correlate with root resorption. Mice were immunized with mouse dentin and controls were sham immunized. All mice were boosted 4 weeks later with or without mouse dentin as appropriate. All mice were then boosted two more times at weekly intervals with mouse dentin and then twice at weekly intervals with rat dentin. The change to rat dentin was made to increase mouse serum antibody titers to dentin. Serum samples were obtained before the initial immunization and weekly after each boost and were examined for antibody-to-dentin antigen by the enzyme-linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA). One week after the second boost with rat dentin, all animals were exposed to the cryoprobe procedure. Mice were killed 10 days later, and serum tested for antibody to dentin antigen. The incisors were examined by scanning electron microscopy, and root resorption quantified. Root resorption was observed on the incisors in the sham-immunized mice but not in the dentin-immunized mice. A trend toward increased serum antibody titers to dentin in immunized mice was observed over time.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Osteoclasts are multinucleated giant cells showing specialized membrane structures, clear zones and ruffled borders, which are responsible for the process of bone resorption. These cells arrive at the resorption site via the bloodstream as mononuclear cells, derived from haemopoietic precursors in the spleen or bone marrow, which fuse prior to resorption. The osteoclast may share an early progenitor cell, the granulocyte macrophage colony-forming unit (GM-CFU) with monocytes, macrophages and granulocytes, implying that osteoclasts share the pluripotent haemopoietic stem cell with all other haemopoietic cells. In the past, elucidation of the structure of these cells relied upon traditional ultrastructural techniques. Transmission electron microscopic studies revealed details of the unique ultrastructure of these cells and, in combination with stereological techniques, showed the response of cells to various hormonal stimuli. Scanning electron microscopy not only demonstrated the surface appearance of osteoclasts, and their predilection for spreading on various substratum components, but has also been used as an adjunct in resorption assays in which areas of resorption lacunae are measured as indicators of cell activity. Recent advances in fields such as immunocytochemistry and freeze fracture techniques have contributed towards a more detailed delineation of antigenic profile, cytoskeletal structure and localization of enzymatic pathways. The osteoclast is subject to extensive regulatory mechanisms and it has been established that the osteoblast plays a major rôle in mediating the effects of osteotropic hormones and local mediators on these cells. Hence, research aimed at elucidating the coupling mechanisms between these two cells may result in new therapies for bone disease.

Abstract
Trabecular bone biopsies obtained from six patients with malignant osteopetrosis, one patient with benign osteopetrosis, and two controls were examined by light and electron microscopy. Osteopetrotic osteoclasts showed little to no signs of active involvement in bone resorption. Ruffled borders and clear zones were absent in most cells. In all patients there were large numbers of osteoclasts. Numbers of osteoblasts, bone lining cells, and bone marrow stromal cells were extremely low in all patients with malignant osteopetrosis. In six of the patients a mineralized layer of amorphous organic material lacking collagen fibrils was seen covering large areas of the bone or cartilage matrix. We suggest that this layer represents a pathological calcification on which subsequently organic material has accumulated. The abnormalities in osteopetrotic bone are discussed in the light of the pathogenesis of this disease.

Abstract
A depression in autoantibody titers to tooth root antigens has been shown to coincide with active root resorption in the dog. Since a murine model would facilitate immunologic studies of root resorption because of the availability of syngeneic and immunodeficient strains, the objectives of this study were to develop a quantitative mouse model for root resorption and to determine if a similar drop in tooth root autoantibodies coincides with active root resorption in this species. Uniform areas of necrosis were created in the periodontal ligaments of lower incisors of 36 male Swiss albino mice by inserting a cryoprobe through a skin incision (-80 degrees C; 5 minutes). Contralateral incisors served as controls. At 0, 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, and 21 days; six mice were killed, and blood and incisors were collected. Relative surface areas of root resorption were quantified with micrographs taken at a standardized position, tilt, and magnification with a scanning electron microscope. Serum autoantibody titers were determined with an enzyme-linked immune sorbent assay with antigen prepared from a 5 mol/L guanidine-HCl-EDTA (pH 5.0) extract of incisor roots that were harvested from syngeneic mice. ANOVA and the paired Student t test were used to compare data at the various time points. No root resorption was evident on control teeth. Localized lesions on treated teeth were found to be of significant size between 7 and 14 days (p less than 0.05), but most of these erupted into the mouth by 21 days.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
It has been hypothesized that phagocytosis of a layer of mineralized material which is sometimes deposited along the root surface following trauma is an important factor in the initiation of the resorption of teeth. To test this hypothesis, freezing of the mouse incisor periodontium was used as a model where deposition of mineral was prevented by the systemic administration of 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-bisphosphonate (HEBP, 10 mg P/kg b.w.) for time periods varying from 2 to 31 days. The animals were killed either 24 hours or 1 month after the last injection and their mandibles were processed for light microscopy. In the HEBP-treated animals, killed 24 hours after the last injection, no mineralized material had been deposited along the root surface, and very little resorption was seen. Large amounts of bone matrix were deposited in the intraperiodontal space (often causing localized ankylosis). In HEBP-treated animals killed 1 month after the last injection, again no layer of mineralized material along the root surface was seen, but now root resorption had become manifest, occupying up to 40% of the cement surface. This occurred irrespective of the duration of HEBP administration. In the saline-treated animals, extensive resorption of the incisor was noted (up to 90% of its surface). It is concluded that the layer of mineralized material deposited after the periodontium is frozen does not play a decisive part in the onset of root resorption. HEBP treatment slows down root resorption but does not prevent it.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the long-term recovery of the normal rate of eruption of the rat incisor following application of loads of similar magnitude but of varying duration. The daily rate of eruption of the continuously growing tooth served as indicator of the functional recovery of its periodontium. The left mandibular incisor was shortened out of occlusion in 34 experimental and 16 control rats. The experimental animals were divided into groups A, B, and C, and continuous loads (19.47 g +/- 0.42 g) were applied to the shortened incisors by means of closed-coil springs for 5, 14, and 28 days, respectively. Following removal of the springs, the daily rate of eruption was measured and calculated in all 50 animals for a period of 10 weeks. The extended impairment of eruption in the experimental animals was directly proportional to the duration of loading: at 10 weeks postloading, it was present in 18%, 67%, and 100% of the rats in groups A, B, and C, respectively. The intragroup variations in the rate of eruption of individual teeth were more pronounced following short-term loading than after prolonged load application. Short-term loading proved to be least harmful regarding recovery of eruptive function.
