The purposes of this study were to investigate bone mineral density as a part of bone construction in human skulls and to examine the relationship between dentofacial morphology and masticatory function by using computed tomography (CT) findings. Changes in bone mineral density in the mandible because of loss of masticatory function were tested in rats by experimentally producing an environment that inhibited mastication by the molars.
