The osteoblast-osteoclast quantification. (a) Microscope view of defect osteoclasts and osteoblasts (black arrows point at osteoclasts and red arrow at osteoblasts, H&E staining, x400 magnification). (b) The lowest mean of osteoclasts was in DFDBBX groups, and the highest mean was in control groups; osteoclast number was decreasing in grafted groups but increasing in control groups in 2 and 4 weeks. (c) The highest mean number of osteoblasts was in the DFDBBX group, while the least number was in the DBBM group in 2 and 4 weeks (n = 5); ^∗p < 0.05.
