Comparative stereologic study between secretory and maturation ameloblasts in rat incisors Estudo estereológico comparativo entre os ameloblastos de secreção e de maturação em incisivos de ratos

The ameloblasts both in secretion phase and in smooth-ended ameloblasts in maturation phase were studied using stereologic methods in transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
