THE EFFECT OF FEVER ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE RAT INCISOR

LELAND H. GARRISON 1

1 Department of Pathology, School of Medicine and Dentistry, University of Rochester, Rochester, New York

1. High fevers occurring in rats affect the development of the dentin by producing concentric double-ringed zones, which follow the developmental lines of the teeth. The outer zone is probably hypocalcified and the inner portion hypercalcified.

2. Pulpal changes take the form of edema, hyperemia, a possible early reticular degeneration, and irregularity and thickening of the odontoblastic layer, from which the pulp recovers almost completely within 2 or 3 weeks.

3. The width of dentin change is in proportion to the duration of the fever.
