Influences growth, metabolism, and homeostasis over prolonged periods. Secretes hormone products into interstitial spaces which are then absorbed into the blood and transported throughout the body. Hormonal control is much slower than nervous control, but the effects of the endocrine system are much longer lasting. Risk stratification and dental management. Géza T. Terézhalmy, D.D.S., M.A..
