Popis: To establish an animal model for experimental study of orthodontic treatment of alveolar bone defect and other relative research.The experiment was carried out on forty SPF female Wistar rats,which were 6 weeks old. With the rats anaesthetized, one side of the alveolar bone in the maxillary first molar of the rats was removed partly. The defects were filled with Bio-glass. The tissue slices from the defects were observed under light microscope 2 weeks after surgery.Only one of the forty rats was infected after operation, and the survival rate was 97.5%. The wounds of the survived rats healed well, and new bone was found around the Bio-glass 2 weeks after operation.Animal model of alveolar bone defect established by surgery is simple and reliable, which can be used for further studies.
