Pulpal and radicular changes following maxillary subapical corticotomy

Abstract: Pulpal and radicular changes after subapical corticotomy in combination with posterior transfer of the maxilla were studied histopathologically using monkey jaws. When the surgical procedures were successful, the pulp tissues were kept alive, even though some slight atrophy and degeneration appeared. In some cases, however, severe reticular atrophy occurred which might be due to anaemia during operations.

“…The force level was decided on the basis of that used in a previous animal study by Yoshikawa, in which a headcap was used after maxillary block corticotomy in monkeys, followed by application of 400 g of retractive force on either side. 21 Since there are obvious differences in the maxillofacial anatomy of beagles and humans, direct extrapolation of the results of this study would be difficult. Nonetheless, several very interesting findings were noted in this study.…”
