[Study of hard mineralized tissues effect of calcium-deficient diets with and without cholecalciferol supplementation on the incisor dentine of rats].
It has been known that both tooth and bone have an apatite structure similar to that of mineral hydroxyapatite. The apatite crystal in living tissues of tooth and bone generally is constructed from submicrocrystals and has many impurities. It seems that chemical and physical aspects of resistance of hard tissues depend on the diet. Consequently, the matrix of organic, free radicals in X-ray irradiated hard tissues were studied by means of electron spin resonance (ESR). The effects of calcium-deficient diets with and without cholecalciferol supplementation on the incisor dentine of rats were examined by the rate of decay of organic, free fadicals in X-ray irradiated incisor dentine of rats. The crystal size of incisor dentine became smaller in case of calcium contained diet.
