Effects of different doses of ionizing radiation on alveolar bone repair in post-extraction tooth socket: an experimental study in rats.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the dose-response effects of ionizing radiation (IR) on alveolar bone repair and bone strength after tooth extraction.

Materials And Methods: A total of 32 male Wistar rats were used in the study, 28 animals were included in the final analysis, and n = 7 for each experimental group. Mandibular first molars were extracted.
