Description

The effect of dietary manipulation on global tooth uptake of 47Ca-chloride was evaluated in three rat models of metabolic bone diseases verified by histologic bone study. The 24-hr tooth uptake of 47Ca-chloride was significantly decreased in the osteomalacic group, and was increased in the osteoporotic group at the fourth week. Tooth uptake closely paralleled femoral uptake at a correlation coefficient of 0.73 (p<0.01). The uptake of 47Ca-chloride in tooth was found to be more affected by dietary manipulation than that in femur in our rat models. (author)
