Ossification is a tightly regulated process, performed by specialized cells called osteoblasts.
Dysregulation of this process may cause inadequate or excessive mineralization of bones or …

In vivo and in vitro studies have demonstrated the positive role that ultrasound can play in
the enhancement of fracture healing or in the reactivation of a failed healing process. We …

The ability of ultrasound to produce highly controlled tissue erosion was investigated. This
study is motivated by the need to develop a noninvasive procedure to perforate the neonatal …

Periodontitis is a widespread oral disease that results in the loss of alveolar bone. Low-
intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS), which is a new therapeutic option, promotes alveolar …

The goal of this review is to present the most updated knowledge derived from basic
science, animal studies and clinical trials, concerning biophysical stimulation of bone repair …

Ultrasonic Stimulation of Fracture Healing," one page (1976). Abstract, Proceedings of the III …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible effect of low intensity pulsed ultrasound
(LIPUS) on tooth movement and root resorption in orthodontic patients. Twenty-one patients …

Low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has been proven effective in promoting fracture
healing but the underlying mechanisms are not fully depicted. We examined the effect of …

Low-intensity ultrasound is a biophysical form of intervention in the fracture-repair process,
which through several mechanisms accelerates healing of fresh fractures and enhances …

Adult stem cells can differentiate into multiple lineages depending on their exposure to
differing biochemical and biomechanical inductive factors. Lack of mechanical signals due …
