  • Title: [Influence of thyroid gland function status upon reaction of hard dental and periodontal tissues on chronic stress].
    Author: Gorodetskaia IV, Korenevskaia NA.
    Journal: Stomatologiia (Mosk); 2010; 89(6):34-6. PubMed ID: 21311442.
    Abstract:
    In experiments on 190 adult male Wistar rats it was established that at chronic stress (the congested housing of animals during 3 months) the status of marginal periodontal tissues and hard dental tissues (degree of gum recession, atrophy of alveolar bone, teeth mobility; enamel acid resistance) depended upon the organism thyroid status: hypothyroidism (intragastric introduction of mercazolil in the of 12 mg/kg body weight during 14 days, then in half dose up to the end of the experiment) increased intensity of stress disturbances whereas small L-thyroxin doses (5-8 μg/kg body weight intragastrally during 28 days after that in half dose) essentially limited them.
