Statistical results of microcomputed tomography of mouse teeth and dentinal tubular structures of molar dentin. a, b Representative microcomputed tomography of a 3-month-old mouse tooth. c, d Representative microcomputed tomography of a 6-month-old mouse tooth. e, f, g, and h Statistical analysis of DBV, DBMD, EBV, and EBMD on microcomputed tomography of mouse teeth. There were no significant differences between WT mice and HET mice. i, j Scanning electron microscopy of molar dentin in 3-month-old mice. k, l Scanning electron microscopy of molar dentin in 6-month-old mice. The red arrows indicate the dentinal tubules. a, c, i, and k are WT mice; b, d, j, and l are HET mice. Abbreviations: DBV, dentin bone volume; DBMD, dentin bone mineral density; EBV, enamel bone volume; EBMD, enamel bone mineral density
