The dental cell biology research platform of Alta Stomatology serves to study the complex interactions and signaling mechanisms within dental cells. The research platform provides cutting-edge tools and advanced methodologies for researching dental cell biology. This research platform's state-of-the-art technology includes advanced microscopy and imaging systems, cell culture facilities, molecular biology tools, and high-throughput screening capabilities. These technologies enable comprehensive studies of various dental cell types, their functions, and their interactions with each other and the environment.

Dental Cell Biology

At the most basic level, cells are the building blocks of life. They make up the tissues and organs in our bodies, including the teeth and the mouth. Dental cell biology is a multidisciplinary science that explores the cell behaviors, characteristics, and structures associated with the oral cavity. This branch of science is fundamental to understanding overall oral health, the development and progression of oral diseases, and their potential treatments.

The oral cavity is a complex system, home to one of the most diverse microbiomes in the human body. It has distinct cells that fulfill specific roles, such as fibroblasts in the oral mucosa, keratinocytes in the epithelial tissue, and osteoblasts in the jawbone. Dental cell biology aims to comprehend the interactions between these cells, and their responses to various stimuli, which contribute to the overall oral health or disease state.

Our Fields of Oral Microbial Research

At Alta Stomatology, our team of researchers is dedicated to exploring a wide range of topics within the field of dental cell biology. Some of the key areas of research that we are involved in include:

Dental Cell Interactions

Understanding interactions between various dental cells, the ECM (extracellular matrix), and other signaling molecules is critical. Our research into these interactions could reveal new insights into disease development and potential therapeutic interventions.

Cellular Responses

This field focuses on uncovering the various cellular responses to environmental changes, including the introduction of bacterial infections, shifts in pH, temperature fluctuations, and chemical stimulants.

Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Dentistry

This field focuses on employing dental cell biology for tissue engineering and regenerative dentistry, two emerging fields with tremendous potential. It seeks to utilize cells, biomaterials, and molecules to repair or replace damaged or lost dental tissues.
