Alcohol (EtOH) intake during adolescence has become an important public health issue. Although the detrimental effects of EtOH intake on the musculoskeletal system are well known, only a few studies have investigated its impact on the stomatognathic system of adolescents. This study aimed to investigate the effect of EtOH binge drinking on the alveolar bone and the long-term consequences after abstinence.
Adolescent female Wistar rats (35 days old) were exposed to 4 cycles of EtOH binge drinking (3 g/kg/d; 3 days On-4 days Off) or distilled water (control group). Alveolar bone micromorphology and vertical bone distance were evaluated at 1, 30, and 60 days after that last EtOH intake through X-ray computed microtomography. The mineral:matrix ratio was assessed through Raman spectroscopy.
A decrease in both trabecular thickness and volume ratio, and an increase in trabecular separation were observed at the 1-day evaluation (immediate withdrawal). After 30 and 60 days, the alveolar bone parameters were found similar to control, except for the mineral:matrix ratio in the long-term abstinence.
EtOH binge drinking during adolescence results in alveolar bone damage that may persist in adulthood, even after abstinence.
青少年饮酒已成为一个重要的公共卫生问题。尽管乙醇摄入对骨骼肌肉系统的有害影响众所周知,但仅有少数研究调查了其对青少年口腔颌面部系统的影响。本研究旨在探讨乙醇 binge drinking 对牙槽骨的影响,以及戒酒后的长期后果。
35 天大的雌性 Wistar 大鼠接受 4 个周期的乙醇 binge drinking(3g/kg/d;3 天 ON-4 天 OFF)或蒸馏水(对照组)处理。在最后一次乙醇摄入后 1、30 和 60 天,通过 X 射线计算机微断层扫描评估牙槽骨微形态和垂直骨距离。通过拉曼光谱评估矿化基质比。
在即刻戒断时(1 天评估)观察到骨小梁厚度和体积比降低,以及骨小梁分离增加。30 和 60 天后,除了长期戒断时的矿化基质比之外,牙槽骨参数与对照组相似。
青少年时期的乙醇 binge drinking 会导致牙槽骨损伤,即使在戒酒后,这种损伤也可能持续到成年期。
