Figure 1

Sagittal views from micro-CT images of Brtl/+ and WT first and second molars at (a) 2 and (b) 6 months. Brtl/+ images show wide pulp spaces and decreased dentin thickness, more pronounced in the root, compared to age matched WT. Note the disorganized trabecular jaw bone around the Brtl/+ roots.
