Physical training minimizes immunological dysfunction, oxidative stress and tissue destruction on experimental periodontitis in rats
Fig 5
Alveolar bone microtomographic assessment in rats submitted or not to aerobic physical training and experimental-induced periodontitis.
In A, Trabecular Thickness (mm); In B, Trabecular Spacing (mm); In C, the ratio between Bone Volume (BV) and Tissue Volume (TV) expressed as a percentage (%). Different superscript letters indicate statistical difference (p<0.05) by ANOVA-1 way with Tukey’s post hoc test. Microtomographic images D, E, F and G, illustrate the inter radicular alveolar bone of groups Control, Physical Training (PT), Periodontitis (PD), and Periodontitis + Physical Training (PD + PT), respectively. Scale bar: 1 mm.
