An in vitro model was used to study the effect of tensile force magnitude and duration on cell
proliferation in cranial suture tissue. Helical springs were calibrated to deliver specific …

Craniofacial sutures are soft connective-tissue joints between mineralized skull bones.
Suture mechanobiology refers to the understanding of how mechanical stimuli modulate …

Sutures are fibrous joints between craniofacial bones, providing an interesting model for
studying the biomechanics of the interface between soft and mineralized tissues. To explore …

In an effort to quantify the biologic effects of an orthodontic tensile force, the rat
interpremaxillary suture was investigated as model for the periodontal ligament and …
