In addition to increasing bone volume, fluoride has been demonstrated to increase ash weight and mineral density. To determine whether newly formed or older bone is most affected by fluoride treatment, bone from chickens receiving fluoridated water was fractionated into lower density (recently forme

## Abstract Systemic sodium fluoride has been used in the treatment of osteoporosis. Recent studies have shown that it has a positive risk/benefit ratio for use in increasing spinal trabecular bone density. However, thinning of the cortices of the long bones with a resulting increase in fracture in
Explants of the embryonic rat palate have been treated by adding sodium fluoride and sodium pyruvate to the culture medium. Fluoride, at specific concentrations, causes retardation of palatal shelf growth so that fusion does not occur during the culture period. Partial or complete fusion does occur
