We performed morphofunctional analysis of cultured rabbit buccal epithelial cells in the primary culture, during passaging, and upon interaction with collagen substrates. Three different morphological types were identified. It was demonstrated that precursors of rabbit buccal epithelium were characterized by high proliferative activity, retain their biological properties throughout long-term culturing, and adhere to various collagen substrates.

A dentigerous cyst (DC) is the most common developmental cystic lesion of the jaws. Histologically, these cysts derive from the odontogenic epithelium that includes the reduced enamel epithelium, epithelial cell rests of Serres, and epithelial cell rests of Malassez. Radiographically, DCs are usually presented as well-defined radiolucencies associated with the crown of an unerupted tooth at the level of the cementoenamel junction (CEJ).

Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common malignancy of the head and neck. Pseudovascular squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) is a rare variant that occurs commonly in the skin of the head and neck. However, oral cavity involvement is extremely rare, with only a few cases reported to date.

Cheek swabs, heterogeneous samples consisting primarily of buccal epithelial cells, are widely used in pediatric DNA methylation studies and biomarker creation. However, the decrease in buccal proportion with age in adults remains unexamined in childhood. We analyzed cheek swabs from 4626 typically developing children 2-months to 20-years-old.

Epigenetic clocks are a common group of tools used to measure biological aging-the progressive deterioration of cells, tissues, and organs. Epigenetic clocks have been trained almost exclusively using blood-based tissues, but there is growing interest in estimating epigenetic age using less-invasive oral-based tissues (i.e.

Despite MCT oil's potential antimicrobial benefits for gastrointestinal health, its effects on disrupting cariogenic pathogens on oral mucosal surfaces remain underexplored. This study evaluated the impact of MCT oil on the adhesion and invasion of and using planktonic and mucosal models. First, a planktonic model was used to assess the impact of various concentrations of MCT on the growth of and .
