Abstract
- Earlier studies have shown that one week after sympathectomy in the rat, both bone apposition and resorption are significantly altered. Resorption in the incisor socket was now examined 1, 3 and 5 days after surgical sympathectomy. Morphometric analyses indicated that the total resorbing surface, active resorbing surface and number of osteoclasts per socket were increased one day after sympathectomy; the area and length of the bone surface of the socket were not significantly altered. Sympathetic denervation thus affects bone resorption within the first few hours after surgery.
