Background/purpose: The number of middle-aged and elderly orthodontic patients is increasing due to changes in age composition. It is important to investigate the detailed mechanisms of bone remodeling in orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) in the elderly. However, there are few reports on the mechanism of tooth movement in the elderly. The purpose of the present study was to analyze OTM and osteoclastogenesis in aged mice and to elucidate the mechanism. Materials and methods: It has been reported that tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α plays an important role in osteoclast formation and OTM. First, 8-week-old and 78-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were subcutaneously injected with TNF-α into the calvaiae, and micro-CT, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, and real-time PCR were performed to evaluate osteoclast formation and bone resorption. Furthermore, osteoclastogenesis by TNF-α and receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL) using bone marrow cells was evaluated in vitro. Finally, a nickel-titanium closed-coil spring was attached, mesial movement of the maxillary left first molar was performed, and tooth movement distance and osteoclast formation were evaluated. Results: Compared to 8-week-old mice, 78-week-old mice had decreased TNF-α-induced bone resorption, osteoclastogenesis, and TRAP and cathepsin K expression in the calvariae. In vitro osteoclast formation also decreased in 78-week-old mice. Furthermore, tooth movement distance and osteoclastogenesis were reduced. Conclusion: OTM decreased in aged mice, which was shown to be caused by a decrease in osteoclastogenesis. Therefore, it was suggested that it is necessary to keep in mind that tooth movement may be suppressed when treating elderly patients. |
