Abstract excerpt
Human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) are a unique population of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that demonstrate the capacity to generate cementum- and periodontal ligament-like structures in vivo.

The present chapter describes two methods for isolating PDLSCs from human PDL...
