Abstract
The effect of iron deficiency maintained for over 6 months on the pigmentation and structure of incisors was investigated in female white rats. Gross loss of pigmentation was observed. Sections revealed enamel hypoplasia and aplasia. Dentinogenesis was much less affected, but there were areas of altered dentine with abnormal tubules and increased thickness of predentine with cellular and vascular inclusions.Entities:
