Effects of Twin Inclined Plane Device on Adaptation and Ultrastructure Variations in Condyle of Growing Rats

Figure 6

The TIPD increased the expression of osteoclasts in the posterior region of the condyle. The presence of osteoclasts and osteoclastic activity in the experimental group are shown. (g) At day 30, there was a significant increase in osteoclasts in the region between the MCC and endochondral bone and this decreased to the lowest on day 60 (h). The red box indicates the area of interest, and this is shown in the black box area.
