The tooth eruption pattern in well- and under-nourished rat pups was investigated. A one-day lag was observed in those pups born to, and suckled on, dams that received a low protein diet when compared with control pups from mothers given a high protein diet. The difference in susceptibility to dental caries between these two groups could not be accounted for by this differential eruption and time of exposure to the cariogenic stress.
