Jack,
That sounds really awesome.

I did some work with the teeth of sows (female pigs) from
specimens collected at slaughter.  Those are very difficult to decalcify,
and when finished, are likely to have no nuclear detail remaining.

Interested to hear what you learn

If you are talking about an undecalcified specimen embedded in PMMA, then I would imagine that the age of the rat could affect the ability to achieve an adequate infiltration of the resin. Again, I look forward to what others have to say about their success by the method you have outlined.

The machine I am talking about is basically a laser microtome manufactured by Rowiak in Germany and it is officially called the TissueSurgeon. In fact, Dr. Heiko Richter from Germany has accomplished what you ask with human teeth, revealing the full anatomy of the tooth and even with ameloblasts on the enamel surface!

I will be traveling to Germany one week from today to work with this laser microtome until the end of the month so I could arrange to have laser cut sections made for you if you are interested and unable to make your cuts using PMMA and a rotary microtome. If you would like more information, please feel free to contact me by email reply.
