Abstract : [Abstract] Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease which destroys the periodontium including alveolar bone, cementum and periodontal ligament, and which simultaneously brings about the abolition of the occlusion system. In periodontal therapy, the diseased area is removed as a symptomatic treatment and regenerative therapy is performed using artificial material. However, there are limitations to complete reorganization. For the establishment of a more positive treatment that includes total reconstruction of the physiological occlusion system, development of cell therapy using stem cell or progenitors that possessed differentiation potential is essential. This strategy should be based on the embryological processes of the periodontium. Establishment of the stem / progenitor cell line presented in the periodontium would provide us the possibility of not only the development of a new periodontal therapy utilizing tissue engineering, but would also provide us with the means of developing an implant that includes a periodontal ligament.
