Figure 3

New bone formation and mineralization was determined histomorphometrically by tetracycline (TE), calcein (CA) and alizarin red (AL)- labeling analysis. (A) Confocal laser microscope images for the control, bio-Gide and periosteum groups, respectively. (B) The graph shows the percentage of each fluorochrome area for different groups. (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01). The percentages of three fluorescent labeling in groups B and C were significantly higher than that in group A, and there were significant differences between the group B and group C in the percentage of TE and CA labeling (P < 0.05), which indicated that more newly formed bone was observed in the periosteum group.
