Fluorose em ratos induzida pela ingestão contínua de fosfatos brutos de rocha: morfologia do dente e osso alveolar. Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, Belo Horizonte, v. 46, n. 4, p. 329-341, 1994.e- 1678-4162http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/14052The effects of fluoride toxicity due to Brazilian roch phosphates intake in rats (Ratus ratus) were evaluated by the microscopic examination of tooth and alveolar bone. The rats received a basic diet added Araxá, Patos de Minas and Tapira rock phosphate at two levels of disponíble phosphorus (0.15 and 0.25%). The control rats were fed the sarne basie diet non-supplemented with any phosphate source. Regardless the rock phosphate sources, ali the animals showed dental and bone fluorosis. The contrai rats did not show any lesions.porAcesso AbertoFlúorFluoroseFosfato de rochaDente e osso alveolarRatoFluorFluorosisRock phosphateTooth and alveolar boneRatArtigo
