Summary:Ageing affects several biological structures and mechanisms. The present work studied wound healing in 2 months old and 17 months old mice. Experimental wound in the tongue of 70 mice were performed. Histological diferences or similarities in healing ofyoung and aged mice were search. The results have shown that there were no ignificative differences on wound healing between young and aged groups. It was concluded that wound healing processes at the same rate independently of group age.
