1. Developmental disturbances of cementum induced by 1-hydroxyethylidene-1, 1-bisphosphonate (HEBP) : experimental studies on rats
Abstract : By studying the mechanism(s) behind experimentally induced developmental disturbances of a tissue, it may be possible to gain information about its normal development. Cementum seems to be the least understood of the dental tissues, and there are very few studies in which its development has been experimentally altered. READ MORE

2. Bovine Teeth in Age Assessment, from Medieval Cattle to Belgian Blue : Methodology, Possibilities and Limitations
Abstract : The overall aim of the present thesis was to develop and characterise an age assessment method based on incremental lines in dental cementum using contemporary bovine teeth and teeth from archaeological faunal assemblages. The investigations also included two other age assessment methods: tooth wear pattern and macroscopic dental measurements. READ MORE

3. Cell adhesion molecules during odontogenesis and tooth-related diseases
Abstract : Cell adhesion molecules play essential roles in the development and disease of tooth and oral structures, as well as in the maintenance of adult tissue structure/function. It has been shown that different types of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) play an important part in craniofacial development when ectomesenchymal cells migrate from the neural list to the primitive oral cavity, giving rise to the palatal processes and tooth germs.

4. Studies on three matrix molecules in bone and dentin
Abstract : The biomineralization of bone and dentin is a complex and dynamic process, involving the formation of an organic framework in which mineral crystals are deposited. The noncollagenous proteins (NCPs) of the organic phase play a central role in the extracellular matrix (ECM) organization and mineralization regulation. READ MORE
