Background: The application of dental implants is often restricted by bone volume. In such cases, bone grafts are required, although bone graft materials have some disadvantages. Therefore, other effective approaches are needed. Our previous study showed that the autologous micrograft, a dissociated cell suspension made out of palatal connective tissue grafts, promoted bone-marrow cell proliferation and differentiation under osteogenic conditions. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effects of dissociated soft-tissue suspensions relevant to bone regeneration in animal model.

Material And Methods: Twelve-week-old male Wistar rats were used in the study. Defects were created in rat calvaria, and were filled with hydrogel containing either dissociated soft-tissue suspension (test) or sucrose (control). The new bone formation was evaluated at 1 and 2 weeks after surgery (n = 16) by radiological and histological analysis.

Results: The conducted radiological analysis showed that the new bone volume was significantly greater in the dissociated soft-tissue suspension group. This finding was further confirmed by the conducted histological analysis.

Conclusions: The dissociated mucosa tissue suspension enhanced bone regeneration in vivo; thus, it is a promising potential method to aid the successful application for bone augmentation in the implant practice.

Comparative evaluation of allograft particulate bone and cortical bone blocks combined with xenograft bone for labial bone defects in the aesthetic zone: a prospective cohort study.

BMC Oral Health

State Key Laboratory of Oral Diseases & National Clinical Research Center for Oral Diseases & Department of Implant Dentistry, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, Chengdu, 610041, China.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the osteogenic performance of allograft particulate bone and cortical bone blocks combined with xenograft under bovine pericardium membranes, for treating different degrees of labial bone defects in the aesthetic zone.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-four patients with bone defects were divided into two groups based on defect severity (Terheyden 1/4 and 2/4 groups). The Terheyden 1/4 group received granular bone grafts alone, while the Terheyden 2/4 group received cortical bone blocks combined with granular bone grafts.

Recently, 3-D porous architecture of the composites play a key role in cell proliferation, bone regeneration, and anticancer activities. The osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties of β-TCP allow for the complete repair of numerous bone defects. Herein, β-TCP was synthesized by wet chemical precipitation route, and their 3-D porous composites with HBO and Cu nanoparticles were prepared by the solid-state reaction method with improved mechanical and biological performances.

Background And Objectives: Gingivitis and periodontitis are common periodontal diseases that can significantly harm overall oral health, affecting the teeth and their supporting tissues, along with the surrounding anatomical structures, and if left untreated, leading to the total destruction of the alveolar bone and the connective tissues, tooth loss, and other more serious systemic health issues. Numerous studies have shown that propolis can help reduce gum inflammation, inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria, and promote tissue regeneration, but with varying degrees of success reported. For this reason, this comprehensive systematic review aims at finding out the truth concerning the efficacy of propolis mouthwashes in treating gingivitis and periodontitis, as its main objective.

Fractures are common and serious skeletal injuries, and accelerating their healing while alleviating patient suffering remains a clinical challenge. Annexin A2 (ANXA2) is a widely distributed, calcium-dependent, phospholipid-binding protein involved in bone remodeling. However, its role in chondrocyte differentiation and endochondral ossification remains unclear.
