DMP-1 expression in alveolar bone socket following (Ten.) Steenis treatment: A histological study.

Objective: The study aimed to ascertain how (Ten.) Steenis Gel affects the expression of protein dentin matrix protein-1 (DMP-1) in alveolar Wistar rats after tooth extraction.

Materials And Methods: Rats were given (Ten.) Steenis gel was in the socket after tooth extraction, and then the wound was sutured. The rats were sacrificed for 8 and 15 days following tooth extraction. The results on the 8 and 15 days demonstrate that the expression of DMP-1 in the treatment group is significantly higher than in the control group.

Results: Expression of DMP-1 in the socket after tooth extraction on days 8 and 15 with a 400x magnification light microscope in both of the (Ten.) Steenis gel treatment groups showed significant differences compared to the control group.

Conclusion: The use of (Ten.) Steenis gel can stimulate DMP-1 expression in alveolar bone after tooth extraction.
