The influence of masticatory hypofunction on developing rat craniofacial structure

Abstract The purpose of this study was to use botulinum neurotoxin type A (BoNT/A) selectively to evaluate the influence of localized masticatory atrophy and paresis on craniofacial growth and development. 60 growing rats, 4 weeks old, weighing approximately 120 g, were randomly divided according as...
