Outline of Final Research Achievements |
However thermodynamics applies to a wide variety in orthopedics, it is not general in dentistry. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of thermodynamics to salivary function and autonomic nerve system. As the results, it was revealed that salivation from mouse submandibular gland was affected by temperature and the thermo sensitivity was different between muscarinic stimulations. Furthermore salivation was increased by thermodynamics in human but the effect was decreased by metal restoration in oral cavity.
