title: [A technic to prepare fixed ground sections for a quantitative microradiography study of the dentin].
abstract: The preparation of ground sections for the quantitative microradiographic study of dentine was carried out either by hand or by machine using a new technique of fixing the sections to the holder by a soluble adhesive. After setting up a method of control for the plano-parallelism of the sections, the times of preparation and the quality of the sections obtained with both methods were compared: engine grinding gave the best results in terms of both quantity and quality.
