Nitric Oxide Concentration and Other Salivary Changes after Insertion of New Complete Dentures in Edentulous Subjects

Figure 3

Box-whisker plot of changes in nitric oxide levels (μM) in unstimulated whole saliva during follow-up sessions after insertion of new complete dentures ( = 19). Box limits represent 25 and 75 percentiles, the line within the box represents median, and the whiskers represent minimum and maximum values ( < 0.05; Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank test).
