Published: June 2005

Objectives: The aim of this histomorphometric prospective study was to ascertain the efficacy of phycogenic bone substitute in an augmented sinus. The process of graft healing, bone remodeling, and biomaterial replacement was examined.

Material And Methods: The phycogenic material (fluorohydroxyapatite) made from calcium-encrusted sea algae was used for the sinus lifts. Twenty-four procedures were carried out (one-stage and two-stage equally) and 45 titanium stepped-screw implants were placed. The patients were followed for 12-23 months. In intervals of 6, 9, 12, or 15 months after the sinus lift, 24 graft specimens were taken with a trephine bur. These specimens were examined histomorphometrically.

Results: The grafting material was gradually resorbed and replaced by newly formed bone. Between the sixth and 15th month after the sinus lift, the percentage of newly formed bone grew linearly (from 15.5+/-9.6% to 40.8+/-15.3%) and the percentage of bone substitute decreased linearly (from 34.5+/-8.6% to 13+/-9.6%). After 15 months, the density of trabeculae in grafted bone corresponded to cancellous bone of good quality; however, the bone substitute was not completely resorbed during this period. No significant difference between the quality of the newly formed bone in the cases of the one- and two-stage sinus lifts was found.

Conclusion: Sinus lift carried out with phycogenic bone substitute was shown to be an effective method with limited invasiveness and a high survival rate of implants (97.8%).

Evaluation of radiation therapy on grafted and non-grafted defects: an experimental rat model.

J Appl Oral Sci

January 2025

Universidade Federal de Uberlândia, Faculdade de Odontologia, Departamento de Periodontia e Implantodontia, Uberlândia, Brasil.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the effects of a single-dose radiation therapy (15 Gy) on grafted and non-grafted defects, bone microarchitecture, and collagen maturity.

Methodology: Bone defects were surgically created in rat femurs. The right femur defect was filled with blood clot (group "Clot") and the left femur defect by deproteinized bovine bone mineral graft (group "Xenograft").

Unlabelled: Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is an alternative treatment for craniofacial bone defects reconstruction through membrane barrier adaptation, such as demineralized dentin material membrane (DDMM). DDMM is used as a substitute for GBR material, which aligns with Green Economy principles, it has a good biological osteoinductive and osteoconductive effects, and its structure resembles bones. The balance of bone remodeling when experiencing craniofacial defects will be altered and allow changes to resorption activity, so the mechanisms of osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption are vital.

Biologically-oriented alveolar ridge preservation to correct bone dehiscence at immediate implant placement.

Clin Adv Periodontics

January 2025

Operative Unit of Dentistry, Azienda Unità Sanitaria Locale, Ferrara, Italy.

Background: The purpose of the present case study is to describe the application of a modification of the Biologically-oriented Alveolar Ridge Preservation (BARP) principles in cases of peri-implant bone dehiscence (PIBD) due to a compromised alveolus at immediate implant placement (IIP).

Methods: The technique is based on the stratification of three layers: a deep layer with a collagen sponge (CS) in the apical part of the alveolus (where the buccal bone plate was still present) to support the blood clot; a graft layer to correct the PIBD; and a superficial collagen layer to cover the graft thus providing space and enhancing clot/graft stability. Healing was obtained by primary closure.

Deproteinized Bovine Bone Mineral With Collagen for Anterior Maxillary Ridge Augmentation: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Clin Implant Dent Relat Res

February 2025

Department of Implantology, The Affiliated Hospital of Stomatology, School of Stomatology, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou, China.

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the effects of deproteinized bovine bone mineral with collagen (DBBMC) combined with deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) on facial alveolar bone augmentation in the anterior maxillary region.

Materials And Methods: Patients receiving dental implant placement with simultaneous lateral bone augmentation using DBBM (control group) or DBBMC combined with DBBM (test group) were included in the study. The radiographic assessment of facial alveolar bone, such as facial horizontal bone thickness (FHBT), facial vertical bone level (FVBL), and square of facial bone (SFB), was taken by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Background: The adjunctive use of connective tissue grafts (CTGs) in the periodontal regeneration of intrabony defects has been proposed to prevent or limit postoperative gingival recession. However, there is limited evidence regarding the long-term clinical performance of this approach.

Methods: This article presents the five-year follow-up outcomes of a combination therapy using CTG, bone substitutes, and biologics for the treatment of deep intrabony defects associated with gingival recession.
