Short-Term Ketogenic Diet Improves Abdominal Obesity in Overweight/Obese Chinese Young Females.

abstract：:The pre-occlusal eruption brings the molars into functional occlusion and initiates tensional strains during mastication. We hypothesized that upon establishment of occlusal contact, the periodontal ligament (PDL) undergoes cell and extracellular matrix maturation to adapt to this mechanical function. The PDL of 12 Wi...
