Myofibroblasts and Transforming Growth Factor-Beta1 in Reactive Gingival Overgrowths

Abstract: ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the oral health-related quality of life of patients treated with implant-supported mandibular overdentures and to compare the attachment systems used.Material and MethodsThe presence of myofibroblasts as well as transforming growth factor-beta1 was examined in twenty cases of fibrous epulis and 22 ossifying fibrous epulis, using immunohistochemistry.ResultsMyofibroblasts positive for alpha smooth muscle actin and vimentin but negative to desmin were found i… Show more
