TABLE 2. Summary of changes in gap size, shape and location during diagnostic therapy.

	Observation before Diagnostic Therapy (N=10)		Observation During Diagnostic Therapy (N=10)	Before vs. During
Gap Shape	60% of the patients presented circular gaps, 30% coronal and 10% sagittal		30% remained circular and 20% coronal, 10% changed from coronal to circular, 40% disappeared	No statistical test applied
Gap Location	60% located centrally, 20% skewed to the right, and 20% skewed to the left		50% remained the same, 10% changed from central to skewed to left, 40% gap disappeared	No statistical test applied
	Rating Before	Rating During	Observation During Diagnostic Therapy (N=10)	Before vs. During
Gap Size*	Mean: 0.6 SD: 0.3	Mean: 0.8 SD: 0.2	30% remained the same, 30% reduced gap size, 40% gap disappeared	Wilcoxon Matched Pairs p=0.017966*
