To investigate the ability of composite graft of osteobalsts and deproteinized bone-titanium mesh (DPB-TM) scaffold to repair cranial bone defect. 30 rabbits were randomly divided into 3 groups. The passage 3 fetal rabbit osteoblasts were seeded into porous DPB-TM scaffolds at the density of 5 x 10(6) ml(-1) as the experimental group. The same defects were respectively reconstructed by DPB-TM or osteoblasts as the control groups. After 12 weeks, the result was evaluated by three-dimensional computed tomographic scanning, gross inspection, scanning electron microscopy, histological examination and mechanics test, respectively. In the experimental group, bone trabecula was observed to pass the defect and interface was mixed. No demarcation between the region of the bone defect and the normal bone was observed. There was plenty of new bone on the scaffold. Part of the scaffold was absorbed. In view of mechanics, the intensity of artificial bone (18.93+/-1.12 MPa) was higher than that of normal bone (16.96+/-1.60 MPa) (P<0.05). In the control groups, only fibrous tissue was observed in the defect region, there was no new bone formation. The tissue engineering bone constructed by osteoblasts and DPB-TM scaffold can be applied to the repair of bone defect.

Reducing Healing Period with DDM/rhBMP-2 Grafting for Early Loading in Dental Implant Surgery.

Tissue Eng Regen Med

January 2025

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Section of Dentistry, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, 172 Dolma-ro, Bundang-gu, Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, 13620, Republic of Korea.

Background: Traditionally, dental implants require a healing period of 4 to 9 months for osseointegration, with longer recovery times considered when bone grafting is needed. This retrospective study evaluates the clinical efficacy of demineralized dentin matrix (DDM) combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) during dental implant placement to expedite the osseointegration period for early loading.

Methods: Thirty patients (17 male, 13 female; mean age 55.

Background: Clavicle fractures associated with ipsilateral coracoid process fractures are very rare, with limited literature reporting only a few cases. This study reports on 27 patients with ipsilateral concomitant fractures of the clavicle and coracoid process who were followed for more than 12 months.

Material And Methods: This retrospective study reviewed the charts of skeletally mature patients with traumatic ipsilateral clavicle and coracoid process fractures treated at the authors' institution.
