I am enclosing herewith a manuscript entitled “[SHORT AND LONG TERM GLUCOCORTICOIDS HAZERDS ON PERIODONTIUM IN RATS HISTOLOGICAL AND ELECTRON MICROSCOPIC STUDY]”
submitted to “[Journal of dentistry indonesia]” for possible evaluation.
Considering the published data regarding the adverse events associated with the use of glucocorticoids, The current work was undertaken to estimate and compare the possible changes occurred in the mandibular alveolar process, periodontal ligament as well as the dentogingival junction in albino rats upon short and long term use of glucocorticoids through light microscopy, scanning electron microscopic. Also the quantitative composition of calcium-phosphrous complex in the studied samples was determined by EDX spot measurement.
