Abstract
Exposure of male albino rats to temperatures of 0 to 2° C. for two weeks resulted
in osteoporosis of alveolar bone, characterized by decreased osteoblastic activity
and periodontal membrane changes consisting of decreased cellularity and granularity
of the collagen. With continued exposure, the changes in the periodontium diminished
in severity. There was evidence of changes after four weeks, but after four months
the periodontium returned to normal.
