Abstract
Wistar rats given a single intraperitoneal injection of 75 mg cyclophosphamide revealed dental anomalies in the form of shortening or lengthening of incisors, and development of supernumerary teeth. Rats given additionally 5 mg/kg b. w. of a nitrosomethylurea solution over a period of four months showed the same dental anomalies, but with relatively shorter latency times. In a supplementary investigation examining the effects of benzo(a)pyrene and nitrosomethylurea applied locally to the organon dentale, neoplastic lesions and dental dysplasia were seen.
