Effects of Decreased Occlusal Loading during Growth on the Mandibular Bone Characteristics

BACKGROUND: Bone mass and mineralization are largely influenced by loading. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reaction of the entire mandibular bone in response to decreased load during growth. It is hypothesized that decreased muscular loading will lead to bone changes as seen during di...
