Ultrastructure of the mesial root of the 2nd molar in the alveolar defect with/without BG augmentation. A SEM observation of the mesial root of the second molar in the alveolar defect with/without BG augmentation (200 × magnification). The blue arrow indicates the remodeled bovine bone mineral grafts. The red arrow indicates the un-remodeled bovine bone mineral grafts. M: mesial. D: distal. BG: bovine bone mineral graft. B The internal ultrastructure bovine bone mineral grafted materials (600 × magnification). C Magnification (700×) of the alveolar defect area adjacent to the mesial surface (M) of the 2nd molar with the BG materials. M: mesial. D: distal mesial. BG: BG materials. AB: alveolar bone
