Enhanced Bone Formation by Rapidly Formed Bony Wall over the Bone Defect Using Dual Growth Factors.

Background: In guided bone regeneration (GBR), there are various problems that occur in the bone defect after the wound healing period. This study aimed to investigate the enhancement of the osteogenic ability of the dual scaffold complex and identify the appropriate concentration of growth factors (GF) for new bone formation based on the novel GBR concept that is applying rapid bone forming GFs to the membrane outside of the bone defect.

Methods: Four bone defects with a diameter of 8 mm were formed in the calvaria of New Zealand white rabbits each to perform GBR.
