[PMID: 37425367 PMCID: PMC10326439 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1192720] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 06/16/2023] [Indexed: 07/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: The limited regenerative potential of periodontal tissue remains a challenge in orthodontic treatment, especially with respect to alveolar bone remodeling. The dynamic balance between the bone formation of osteoblasts and the bone resorption of osteoclasts controls bone homeostasis. The osteogenic effect of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is widely accepted, so LIPUS is expected to be a promising method for alveolar bone regeneration. Osteogenesis is regulated by the acoustic mechanical effect of LIPUS, while the cellular perception, transduction mode and response regulation mechanism of LIPUS stimuli are still unclear. This study aimed to explore the effects of LIPUS on osteogenesis by osteoblast-osteoclast crosstalk and the underlying regulation mechanism. Methods: The effects of LIPUS on orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) and alveolar bone remodeling were investigated via rat model by histomorphological analysis. Mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and bone marrow monocytes (BMMs) were purified and used as BMSC-derived osteoblasts and BMM-derived osteoclasts, respectively. The osteoblast-osteoclast co-culture system was used to evaluate the effect of LIPUS on cell differentiation and intercellular crosstalk by Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Alizarin Red S (ARS), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, real-time quantitative PCR, western blotting and immunofluorescence. Results: LIPUS was found to improve OTM and alveolar bone remodeling in vivo, promote differentiation and EphB4 expression in BMSC-derived osteoblasts in vitro, particularly when cells were directly co-cultured with BMM-derived osteoclasts. LIPUS enhanced EphrinB2/EphB4 interaction between osteoblasts and osteoclasts in alveolar bone, activated the EphB4 receptor on osteoblasts membrane, transduced LIPUS-related mechanical signals to the intracellular cytoskeleton, and gave rise to the nuclear translocation of YAP in Hippo signaling pathway, thus regulating cell migration and osteogenic differentiation. Conclusions: This study shows that LIPUS modulates bone homeostasis by osteoblast-osteoclast crosstalk via EphrinB2/EphB4 signaling, which benefits the balance between OTM and alveolar bone remodeling.

Experimental models of orthodontic tooth movement and their effects on periodontal tissues remodelling. Arch Oral Biol 2021; 130:105216. [PMID: 34365145 DOI: 10.1016/j.archoralbio.2021.105216] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2021] [Revised: 06/28/2021] [Accepted: 07/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to compare two different models of orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in rats by evaluating tooth movement efficiency and periodontal tissues remodelling. DESIGN Fifteen animals were randomly distributed into 3 groups: control group (untreated); ligature appliance (LA) as experimental OTM using a closed coil spring fixed around maxillary first molar by steel ligature; occlusal appliance (OA) as experimental OTM using a closed coil spring attached on the occlusal surface of the maxillary first molar. After 15 days, all animals were euthanized, and the maxilla of each animal was collected for qPCR, micro-computed tomography, and histological analyses. RESULTS Interleukin-1 beta, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha gene expressions were significantly upregulated in the animals of the LA group as compared to the other groups. No significant difference was observed in tooth displacement between both methods. The LA group presented higher linear bone loss and lower values of bone volume fraction, bone mineral density, trabecular number and increased values of trabecular separation compared to the other groups. The birefringent collagen content in the tension side of the periodontal ligament contained significantly lower collagen content in the LA group than in the control group. Furthermore, on the pressure side, the collagen content was significantly lower in the LA and OA groups than in the control group. CONCLUSIONS The OA group presented little or no deleterious effect on periodontal tissues compared to the LA group, suggesting its use may be more reliable for OTM induction in rats for 15 days.

Front Physiol 2021; 12:637606. [PMID: 34113259 PMCID: PMC8186951 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2021.637606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2020] [Accepted: 04/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Plasma levels of protein analytes might be markers to predict and monitor the kinetics of bone and tissue remodeling, including maximization of orthodontic treatment stability. They could help predict/prevent and/or diagnose possible adverse effects such as bone dehiscences, gingival recession, or root resorption. The objective of this study was to measure plasma levels of markers of bone turnover and inflammation during orthodontic force application in a rat model of orthodontic expansion. Two different orthodontic forces for bilateral buccal expansion of the maxillary arches around second and third molars were applied in 10 rats equally distributed in low-force (LF) or conventional force (CF) groups. Four rats served as the control group. Blood samples were collected at days 0, 1, 2, 3, 6, 13, 21, and 58. Longitudinal concentrations of osteoprotegerin (OPG), soluble receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB ligand (sRANKL), interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF), and parathyroid hormone (PTH) were determined in blood samples by a multiplex immunoassay. CF and LF resulted in a significantly maxillary skeletal expansion while the CF group demonstrated significantly higher expansion than the LF group in the long term. Bone turnover demonstrated a two-phase response. During the “early phase” (up to 6 days of force application), LF resulted in more sRANKL expression and increased sRANKL/OPG ratio than the CF and control animals. There was a parallel increase in PTH levels in the early phase in response to LF. During the “late phase” (6–58 days), the markers of bone turnover were stable in both groups. IL-4, IL-6, and IL-10 levels did not significantly change the test groups throughout the study. These results suggest that maxillary expansion in response to different orthodontic forces follows different phases of bone turnover that may be force specific.

Does the time-point of orthodontic space closure initiation after tooth extraction affect the incidence of gingival cleft development? A randomized controlled clinical trial. J Periodontol 2019; 91:572-581. [PMID: 31559633 PMCID: PMC7317775 DOI: 10.1002/jper.19-0376] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2019] [Revised: 09/08/2019] [Accepted: 09/21/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Background Gingival clefts (GCs) develop frequently during orthodontic space closure and may compromise the treatment outcome. This study assessed whether the time‐point of orthodontic space closure initiation, after permanent tooth extraction, affects the incidence of GC. Methods In 25 patients requiring bilateral premolar extraction because of orthodontic reasons, one premolar, chosen at random, was extracted 8 weeks before space closure initiation (“delayed movement,” DM), whereas the contralateral premolar was extracted 1 week before (“early movement,” EM) (“treatment group”). Presence or absence of GC after 3 and 6 months (“time‐point”) was recorded and any association with various parameters (i.e., treatment group, time‐point, gender, jaw, craniofacial growth, gingival biotype, buccal bone dehiscence after extraction, space closure) was statistically assessed. Results Twenty‐one patients contributing with 26 jaws were finally included in the analysis. Overall, GCs were frequent after 3 (DM: 53.9%; EM: 69.2%) and 6 months (DM: 76.9%; EM: 88.5%). EM (P = 0.014) and larger space closure within the study period (P = 0.001) resulted in a significantly higher incidence of GC. Further, there was a tendency for GC development in the presence of buccal bone dehiscence (P = 0.052) and thin gingival biotype (P = 0.054). “Fast movers” (herein cases with a tooth movement ≥1 mm per month) developed a GC in >90% of the cases already after 3 months. “Slow movers” developed a GC in 25% and 70% after 3 months and final evaluation, respectively. Conclusions GC development is a frequent finding during orthodontic space closure and seems to occur more frequently with early tooth movement initiation and in “fast movers.”

Abstract
The most desired target of orthodontic treatment is tooth movement as a result of application of efficient force system. In this study, effect of tooth loading is studied on temperature profile around the tooth at early stages of treatment. The basis of temperature variation is increase of cell number and activities in periodontium as a result of compression and tension of this layer. Highest cellular activities occur in the beginning of loading procedure and aim to reduce mechanical stress in the periodontium which finally ends up with orthodontic tooth movement during couple of years. To find out the correlation between temperature variation and the applied force, in vivo experiments are conducted on ten rats and temperature is measured in specific time periods. It is observed that temperature is higher in direction of the net force about 0.3℃. Next, numerical finite element analysis is carried out on the rat tooth model. Mechanical stress results show that regions with compressive stress have rather high temperature in the experiments. Mechanical stress on periodontium-bone interface is multiplied by a coefficient to simulate cellular activities on this boundary as a heat source and thermal analysis is carried out to obtain temperature profile. The thermo-mechanical coefficient is identified for each rat by imposing the experimental temperatures on numerical outputs. For assessment of a treatment efficiency and deduction of the applied force, temperatures could be measured experimentally and compared with the corresponding numerical analysis temperature result obtained by employing the thermo-mechanical coefficient found earlier for each rat.
