Abstract
Application of an incisal bite plane for as little as three d caused a significant increase in the size of the sublingual glands of rats, with some evidence of hyperplasia and hypertrophy of the acinar cells. The enlargement had few effeets on salivary secretion, and the gland changes were reversible.This publication has 22 references indexed in Scilit:
