Material and methods: An in vitro pseudo-experimental, descriptive and observational study was undertaken in order to assess radiological changes of periodontal and dental tissues of 60 domestic pig's teeth which had been subjected to high temperatures 200, 400, 600, 800 and 1,000 C. Results: The dental and periodontal tissues subject of this research article presented strong resistance to high temperatures without considerable variation of their micro-structure. Thus, physical changes dimensional stability, fissures, cracks and fractures which took place as temperature increased, could be described using a conventional X-ray.
Material y métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo de naturaleza pseudo-experimental in vitro para observar los cambios radiográficos de los tejidos dentales y periodontales en 60 dientes de cerdo doméstico sometidos a altas temperaturas 200, 400, 600, 800 y 1,000 C. Resultados: Los tejidos dentales y periodontales estudiados presentan gran resistencia a las altas temperaturas sin variar considerablemente su microestructura, de tal manera que los cambios físicos estabilidad dimensional, fisuras, grietas y fracturas que ocurren en la medida que aumenta la temperatura pueden describirse a través de radiografía convencional.
