A Retrospective Clinical Trial Regarding Oral Rehabilitation Diagnosis Strategies Based on Stomatognathic System Pathology.

The diameters, perimeters, and longitudinal axes vary between the adult (25–59 years) and elderly patients (60–72 years) as follows ( Table 3 ): We identified a highly significant decrease in elders in the diameter, perimeter, and long axes of serous acini; the diameters of mucous and mixed acini are also diminished in elders, but not quite significantly, as well as the perimeter of mixed acini, while the long axes of mixed acini are also diminished, but statistically significantly; the perimeters and long axes of mucous acini are slightly increased in the elders compared with the adults.
