Purpose: The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on new bone formation and remodeling after grafting of the maxillary sinus with an algae-derived hydroxyapatite AlgOss/C Graft/Algipore.
Materials And Methods: Fourteen consecutive patients with severely atrophic maxillae underwent uni- or bilateral grafting of the maxillary sinus with a mixture of collected bone, algae-derived hydroxyapatite AlgOss/C Graft/Algipore (ratio 1:10), and a combined addition of PRP and thrombin (Tissucol Kit; Baxter, Vienna, Austria) to allow for fast clotting. After an average healing period of 7.1 months bone samples were retrieved. Patients from a former consecutive series treated without PRP served as control group. Statistical analysis was done by Welch 2-sample t test and mixed linear model testing.
Results: In the coronal specimen portions, mean values for newly formed bone area, biomaterial area and marrow space of 32.2% ± 10.4%, 20.1% ± 13.0%, and 47.7% ± 8.5% were found with PRP, respectively. In the control group the corresponding values were 27.6% ± 13.4%, 20.3% ± 12.9%, and 52.1% ± 9.3%. In the apical specimen portions in the PRP group, the newly formed bone area, biomaterial area, and marrow space was 25.7% ± 15.0%, 23.4% ± 14.9%, and 50.9% ± 12.5%, respectively. The corresponding values in the control group were 17.0% ± 8.6%, 34.5% ± 11.2%, and 48.5% ± 8.5%.
Conclusions: Statistical evaluation of the samples proved significantly better overall resorption of algae-derived hydroxyapatite AlgOss/C Graft/Algipore and increased new bone formation when PRP was used, especially in the apical region.

The global energy crisis has spurred a shift from conventional to clean and sustainable energy sources. Biomass derived from microalgae is emerging as an alternative energy source with diverse applications. Despite the numerous advantages of microalgae, large-scale biomass harvesting is not economical and convenient.

Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a bio-derived water-soluble, edible, non-immunogenic nylon-like polymer with the biochemical characteristics of a polypeptide. This Bacillus-derived material has great potential for a wide range of applications, from bioremediation to tunable drug delivery systems. In the context of oral care, γ-PGA holds great promise in enamel demineralisation prevention.

Purpose: The objective of this retrospective study was to evaluate the long-term clinical outcomes of bone regeneration procedures using algae-derived plant hydroxyapatite (Algipore FRIOS) compared with demineralized anorganic bovine bone (Bio-Oss), in combination with autologous blood-derived PRP.
Materials And Methods: Partially edentulous patients with severe atrophy of posterior maxillary treated by means of the split bone technique in a two-stage grafting procedures were observed for up to seven years after implants placement. After surgeries, the natural porous fluorohydroxyapatite (FHA) (Algipore FRIOS; Group, = 29) or anorganic bovine bone (Bio-Oss Group, = 28) with autogenous bone in a 50:50 composite ratio with PRP, were administered in a 2.

Objectives: To analyze a modified biphasic phycogenic biomaterial in comparison with anorganic bovine bone in maxillary sinus floor elevation in humans.
Material And Methods: Eight male patients in need of bilateral two-stage sinus floor elevation were consecutively recruited for this randomized split-mouth study. A combination of autogenous cortical bone (ACB, 20%) and anorganic bovine bone (ABB, 80%) (ACB + ABB group) or ACB (20%) and modified biphasic phycogenic material (BP, 80%) (ACB + BP group) were randomly assigned to graft each sinus.

Introduction: To compare and evaluate clinically and radio-graphically the bone regeneration and the amount of bone fill in intrabony component of periodontal osseous defects through the osteoconductive and osteostimulative effect of bioactive synthetic NovaBone Putty - CMF and osteoconductive effect of calcified algae-derived porous hydroxyapatite Frios Algi-pore bone grafts.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-two sites in 11 patients, within the age range of 25 to 60 years, showing intrabony defects were selected according to split mouth design and divided into group I (Frios Algipore) and group II (NovaBone Putty - CMF). All the selected sites were assessed with the clinical and radiographic parameters like plaque index, gingival index (full mouth and site specific), sulcus bleeding index, probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level, gingival recession, and radiographic bone fill.
