Incisor disocclusion in rats affects mandibular condylar cartilage at the cellular level

Published by: Archives of Oral Biology

The effect of altered occlusion on the mandibular condylar cartilage remains unclear. This study investigated the effect of unilateral incisor disocclusion on cartilage thickness, on mitotic activity and on chondrocytes maturation and differentiation in the mandibular condylar cartilage of rats.
