Antibiotics Disturb Dentin Formation and Differentiation of Dental Pulp Stem Cells: The Role of Microbiota in Cellular Turnover of Mouse Incisor

Figure 1

Antibiotic treatment decreased the growth rate of mouse incisors. (a) Experimental procedure schematic. (b) Representative images of height difference of bilateral incisors at different time points after mechanical injury. (c) Histogram of statistical analysis of recovered height of incisors at a 24-hour time point. (d) Histogram of statistical analysis of recovered height of incisors at a 72-hour time point. Error bars represent the SEM from the mean values. ; . AbT: antibiotic treated; ConvD: conventionalized; SPF: specific pathogen-free.
