Bone Regeneration in Artificial Jaw Cleft by Use of Carbonated Hydroxyapatite Particles and Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived from Iliac Bone

Figure 1

X-ray examination of bone regeneration (a) Schema of standardized occlusal X-ray examination. A film was held parallel to the upper dentition of a beagle dog, and X-rays were irradiated vertically to the film at 250 mV. The angle and distance between X-ray bulb and film were standardized using a locator. (b) The radio-opacity without signals of CAP particles in the artificial jaw cleft area was measured on standardized occlusal X-ray images.
