Current craniofacial growth modification devices utilize static forces but cyclic forces are believed by some to be more effective. The latter has not been evaluated in large animal models, and it is not known how such forces are transmitted to distant parts of the skull. This study aims to: 1. Develop a portable loading system capable of delivering reliable cyclic loads to the porcine nasofrontal suture (NFS), 2. Explore strain transmission to distant sutures and 3. Characterize the sutural growth effects in a small pilot study. After validating the device, cyclic (2.5Hz) tensile loads were applied unilaterally to the NFS of abattoir pig heads (n=6), with strain gages on multiple sutures. Similar loading was applied to 3-month old live pigs (Sus scrofa, n=4 and 1 sham) 30 minutes/day for 5 days. These animals received fluorescent markers of mineralization on loading days 1 and 3. Suture strains were recorded on day 5. Histomorphometric analysis quantified suture width and mineral apposition rate (MAR). A wearable loading system was developed to produce an average of +900 με at the targeted NFS. Substantial strains were seen at the contralateral NFS and midline sutures, but bone strains were low. Strain patterns were similar ex vivo and in vivo, with the latter generally having higher magnitudes. Preliminary evidence demonstrates wider sutures with higher MARs in the loaded sutures. Daily spurts of cyclic load caused sutural strain throughout the skull. The regime likely enhances suture growth and may be therapeutically useful.
