(a) Lateral cephalometric image showing the basal points for mandibular morphological analysis. MaF: most inferior point of the mandibular foramen; MeF: mental foramen; Cd: most posterior point of the condyle; Cr: tip of the coronoid process; Go: tip of the angular process. (b) Mandibular morphological change as a percentage of MeF-MaF in the same animal. Data represent the mean ± SD of six rats (* , ** versus control), adapted from a previous report [10].
