Age-related transversal changes in craniofacial sutures of the anterior viscerocranium in growing rats

Age-related transversal changes in craniofacial sutures of the anterior viscerocranium in growing rats

Objective: To evaluate the dimensional changes that occur in the internasal and nasopremaxillary sutures, and related transverse craniofacial dimensions, of rats from 4 to 38-weeks of age.Methods: Four groups of twelve male Wistar rats were sacrificed at different ages [4-weeks (immature), 16-weeks...
