Objective: To identify the regenerating junctional epithelium (JE) during orthodontic tooth movement in rats.
Materials And Methods: Closed-coil springs were used to create a 20 g mesial force to the maxillary first molars. On days 1, 3, 7, 10, and 14 after force application, histologic changes in JE were examined by immunohistochemistry using proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), odontogenic ameloblast-associated protein (ODAM), and cytokeratin 14 (CK14).
