Effects of oral Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg)-administration on alveolar bone loss in db/db mice (a) Buccal-side maxillary alveolar bone loss (ABL, colored lines), measured from the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) to alveolar bone crest (ABC) at five points: (1) distobuccal regions for first maxillary molar (M1); (2) mesiobuccal (3) distobuccal regions for second maxillary molar (M2); (4) mesiobuccal and (5) distobuccal regions for third maxillary molar (M3), in db/db mice treated with Pg or CMC control for 30 d. (b) Comparison of the sum of the five CEJ-ABC linear distances. **P < 0.01; n = 8. Data are shown as mean ± SEM.
