Light microscopic examination was done of sagittal sections of mandibular incisors from Wistar rats maintained on a normal cube diet, a synthetic fat-supplemented diet and a fat-free diet. Extensive histologic changes were observed in odontoblasts and dentin formation in rats maintained on the fat-free diet. These changes were considered to be degenerative and to be concomitant with essential fatty acid deficiency.
