Description
Abstract
A pilot study was carried out in order to
verify the pattern of changes in mineralization of bone in
the maxillas and mandibles of dogs which had a tooth
extraction or luxation. Bone mineral content was
determined using computerized microdensitometry.
Significant changes in patterns of mineralization were
found for alveolar bone, cortical bone and trabecular
bone at the sites adjacent to the area of operation. These
findings suggest that the three envelopes of jaw bones of
the dogs are influenced by Regional activation
phenomenon (RAP). These results have important
implications for the design of clinical studies of
periodontium. A more detailed study should elucidate
the cellular mechanisms by which these changes occur.
