Figure 3. Induction of bone resorption following A. actinomycetemcomitansmicroinjection.

Figure 3

Computer rendered micro-CT (μCT) images of representative calvaria sample post 2 weeks exposure to A. actinomycetemcomitans. Magnification indicates bone resorption lacunae(A). Enumeration of bone resorptionareasat 1 (upper panel) and 2 weeks (lower panel)post bacterial stimulation(B). Data is expressed as mean number of resorption lacunae (n=6 for controls and n=8 for A. actinomycetemcomitans injected samples; ***p<0.0001, **p<0.001, *p<0.05).
