Over the past few years, tissue engineering applied to the dental field has achieved relevant results. Tissue engineering can be described by actions taken to improve biological functions. Several methods have been described to enhance cellular performance and low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has shown to play an important role in cell metabolism. The present article provides an overview about the current status of LIPUS as a tissue engineering tool to be used to enhance tooth and periodontal regeneration.
在过去几年中,应用于牙科领域的组织工程取得了显著成果。组织工程可以通过采取改善生物学功能的行动来描述。已经描述了几种增强细胞性能的方法,而低强度脉冲超声(LIPUS)已显示在细胞代谢中发挥重要作用。本文概述了LIPUS作为一种用于促进牙齿和牙周组织再生的组织工程工具的现状。
