Figure 4

Close-up of buccal and lingual acellular cement of the wild-type and sclerostin knockout mouse models. The magnification shows the area immediately below the alveolar crest. The cementum appears reddish in the Levai–Laczko staining. Overall, the deletion of sclerostin led to a phenotype characterised by a thickened acellular cementum, as reported in Table 2. The arrowhead indicates the position of the apex of the alveolar crest.
