Figure 1

Effect of simvastatin on maxilla by micro-CT analysis of bone volumetric parameters. (A) Longitudinal-sectional micro-CT images of the first molar (M1) in the maxilla. (B E) Analysis of micro-CT volumetric parameters: bone volume/tissue volume (BV/TV), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), trabecular separation (Tb.Sp), and trabecular number (Th.N). Values are expressed as the mean ± the standard deviation (N = 12; * indicates p < 0.05, ** indicates p < 0.01).
