Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze through morphometric analysis, the variations of the endosteal bone balance during experimental periodontal disease induced in the golden hamster. The results showed that the osteoclastic resorption is increased by a factor of 5 (p less than 0.01) and the bone formation reduced by about 50% (p less than 0.01). The bone volume decreased slightly (by 6%) but significantly (p less than 0.01). No correlation between respectively resorption and formation and bone volume was found.
