Abstract |
The purpose of this investigation was to quantitatively evaluate the effects of inferior alveolar nerve resection on dentinal structures of dogs with the use of fluorescent tissue-time markers. After resection of the mandibular right inferior alveolar nerve and an experimental interval of 70 days, dentin formation was determined from serial cross sections through the mandibular canines. Results indicated that denervation did not appear to affect secondary dentin formation in the canine teeth of dogs.
