Age-Related Periodontitis and Alveolar Bone Loss in Rice Rats
Highlights • Rice rats fed a standard diet developed periodontitis (PD) by age 30 wks. • A high sucrose and casein (H-SC) diet accelerated the development of moderate/severe PD. • switching to STD diet does not halt/reverse the periodontitis induced by a H-SC diet. • The rice rat is a good model to...

Summary: | Highlights • Rice rats fed a standard diet developed periodontitis (PD) by age 30 wks. • A high sucrose and casein (H-SC) diet accelerated the development of moderate/severe PD. • switching to STD diet does not halt/reverse the periodontitis induced by a H-SC diet. • The rice rat is a good model to study pathogenesis, prevention and treatment of PD. |
