A number of methods for in vitro culture of periodontal ligament fibroblasts were investigated. One successful method is described. Such cells can be maintained readily in subculture. Indications of growth of these cells on sections of enzymatically debrided teeth are reported.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
