The influence of occlusion on cellular activity of mouse mandibular incisors was evaluated by determining the age at the time of eruption and initial occlusal contact and by correlating this information with the ratio of tritiated thymidine-labeled cells of the various cell populations at different stages of eruption and occlusion.
