RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: It is common to see patients who need orthodontic treatment but with insufficient alveolar bone volume. However, safe and effective tooth movement requires sufficient alveolar bone width and height. The aim of this study is to compare the bone augmentation efficacy of Autologous Partially Demineralized Dentin Matrix (APDDM) and Deproteinized Bovine Bone Mineral (DBBM) in orthodontic patients with insufficient bone by using a randomized controlled clinical trial approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-seven orthodontic patients involving 40 posterior teeth alveolar sites (n = 40) with insufficient alveolar bone volume were randomly divided into a control group (n = 20) and an experimental group (n = 20). The patients in the experimental group were treated with APDDM, and those in the control group were treated with DBBM. After surgery, the adjacent teeth are moved toward the bone grafting sites according to the orthodontic treatment plan. Patients completed a postoperative response questionnaire by the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score to indicate pain and swelling in the bone grafted area at the time of suture removal; and CBCT scans were conducted before surgery, 6 months and 2 years after surgery to assess changes in buccal and central alveolar heights, as well as widths at the alveolar ridge apex and 3 mm, 5 mm below the apex, respectively. The CBCT image sequences were imported into Mimics 21.0 software in DICOM format. The data of the patients in both groups were collected and analyzed by SPSS 25.0. RESULTS: The VAS scores were significantly lower in the APDDM group than in the DBBM group (p < 0.05). Significant increases were observed in alveolar bone height and width at 6 months and 2 years postoperative (p < 0.05); At 2 years, the APDDM group exhibited a reduction in buccal crest height and in 3 mm, 5 mm width below alveolar ridge apex, relative to 6 months (p < 0.05), while the DBBM group showed a decrease only in the central height of the alveolar bone (p < 0.05). There was a significant bone augmentation increase found only 3 mm below the alveolar ridge apex in the APDDM group compared with the DBBM group among all 6 months group comparison (p < 0.05). At 2 years, the augmentation effects were similar across both groups (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Radiomics analysis indicates that APDDM serves as a viable bone augmentation material for orthodontic patients with insufficient alveolar bone volume, achieving comparable clinical efficacy to DBBM. Additionally, APDDM is associated with a milder postoperative response than DBBM. THE REGISTRATION NUMBER (TRN): ChiCTR2400084607.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To compare bone volume and height changes of two types of deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) for lateral window sinus floor elevation (LSFE) with simultaneous implant placement. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective cohort study involved 72 patients who underwent LSFE using low-temperature sintered cancellous bone-derived DBBM (C-DBBM) or high-temperature two-step sintered epiphyseal-derived DBBM (E-DBBM). Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was acquired preoperatively, immediately postoperatively, 6 months and 1-4 years post-surgery. Bone volume (BV), apical bone height (ABH), endo-sinus bone gain (ESBG), and crestal bone level (CBL) were evaluated through three-dimensional fitting and superimposition. Linear mixed models (LMM) were employed to analyze factors influencing the reduction of BV (ΔBV) and ESBG (ΔESBG). RESULTS: The E-DBBM group showed no significant change in BV 1-4 years post-surgery, while the C-DBBM group demonstrated a significant reduction (p = .006) with volume stability of 85.86%. Bone height in the E-DBBM group increased at 6 months and subsequently decreased at 1-4 years (p = .003). In the C-DBBM group, it decreased at 6 months (p = .014), then further decreased at 1-4 years (p = .001). ΔESBG was lower in the E-DBBM group than the C-DBBM group from immediate postoperative to 1-4 years (p = .009). LMM showed graft material type was the primary factor influencing ΔBV (p = .026) and ΔESBG (p = .003). CONCLUSIONS: Within the limitations of this study, both types of DBBM could achieve favorable clinical outcomes. E-DBBM demonstrated enhanced stability in maintaining bone volume and height.

RESUMEN

In recent years, the significance of maintaining the alveolar ridge following tooth extractions has markedly increased. Alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) is a commonly utilized technique and a variety of bone substitute materials and biologics are applied in different combinations. For this purpose, a histological evaluation and the clinical necessity of subsequent guided bone regeneration (GBR) in delayed implantations were investigated in a prospective case series after ARP with a novel deproteinized bovine bone material (95%) in combination with a species-specific collagen (5%) (C-DBBM). Notably, block-form bone substitutes without porcine collagen are limited, and moreover, the availability of histological data on this material remains limited. Ten patients, each scheduled for tooth extraction and desiring future implantation, were included in this study. Following tooth extraction, ARP was performed using a block form of C-DBBM in conjunction with a double-folded bovine cross-linked collagen membrane (xCM). This membrane was openly exposed to the oral cavity and secured using a crisscross suture. After a healing period ranging from 130 to 319 days, guided trephine drilling was performed for implant insertion utilizing static computer-aided implant surgery (s-CAIS). Cores harvested from the area previously treated with ARP were histologically processed and examined. Guided bone regeneration (GBR) was not necessary for any of the implantations. Histological examination revealed the development of a lattice of cancellous bone trabeculae through appositional membranous osteogenesis at various stages surrounding C-DBBM granules as well as larger spongy or compact ossicles with minimal remnants. The clinical follow-up period ranged from 2.5 to 4.5 years, during which no biological or technical complications occurred. Within the limitations of this prospective case series, it can be concluded that ARP using this novel C-DBBM in combination with a bovine xCM could be a treatment option to avoid the need for subsequent GBR in delayed implantations with the opportunity of a bovine species-specific biomaterial chain.

RESUMEN

Bone grafts are typically categorized into four categories: autografts, allografts, xenografts, and synthetic alloplasts. While it was originally thought that all bone grafts should be slowly resorbed and replaced with native bone over time, accumulating evidence has in fact suggested that the use of nonresorbable xenografts is favored for certain clinical indications. Thus, many clinicians take advantage of the nonresorbable properties/features of xenografts for various clinical indications, such as contour augmentation, sinus grafting, and guided bone regeneration, which are often combined with allografts (e.g., human freeze-dried bone allografts [FDBAs] and human demineralized freeze-dried bone allografts [DFDBAs]). Thus, many clinicians have advocated different 50/50 or 70/30 ratios of allograft/xenograft combination approaches for various grafting procedures. Interestingly, many clinicians believe that one of the main reasons for the nonresorbability or low substitution rates of xenografts has to do with their foreign animal origin. Recent research has indicated that the sintering technique and heating conducted during their processing changes the dissolution rate of hydroxyapatite, leading to a state in which osteoclasts are no longer able to resorb (dissolve) the sintered bone. While many clinicians often combine nonresorbable xenografts with the bone-inducing properties of allografts for a variety of bone augmentation procedures, clinicians are forced to use two separate products owing to their origins (the FDA/CE does not allow the mixture of allografts with xenografts within the same dish/bottle). This has led to significant progress in understanding the dissolution rates of xenografts at various sintering temperature changes, which has since led to the breakthrough development of nonresorbable bone allografts sintered at similar temperatures to nonresorbable xenografts. The advantage of the nonresorbable bone allograft is that they can now be combined with standard allografts to create a single mixture combining the advantages of both allografts and xenografts while allowing the purchase and use of a single product. This review article presents the concept with evidence derived from a 52-week monkey study that demonstrated little to no resorption along with in vitro data supporting this novel technology as a "next-generation" biomaterial with optimized bone grafting material properties.

RESUMEN

This report describes a case of Stage III Grade C periodontitis requiring periodontal regenerative therapy. The patient was a 19-year-old woman who presented with the chief complaint of gingival recession in the incisor region. An initial examination revealed that 45.3% of sites had a probing depth of ≥4 mm and 45.8% bleeding on probing. Radiographic examination showed angular bone resorption in #25, 26, 31, 36, and 46 and horizontal resorption in other regions. Initial periodontal therapy was implemented based on a clinical diagnosis of Stage III Grade C periodontitis (generalized aggressive periodontitis). Occlusal adjustment was also performed at sites showing premature contact (#26 and 36) after suppression of inflammation. Periodontal regenerative therapy using recombinant human fibroblast growth factor (rhFGF) -2 was performed on #25, 26, and 46. Combination therapy with rhFGF-2 and deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) was performed on #31 and 36. A non-incised papillae surgical approach (NIPSA) was used on #31. Periodontal conditions were then re-evaluated and the patient placed on supportive periodontal therapy. Regenerative therapy using rhFGF-2 and DBBM with NIPSA yielded an improvement in clinical parameters and bone resorption. This improvement has been adequately maintained over a 12-month period. Continued care is needed to maintain stable periodontal conditions.

RESUMEN

Bone grafting is routinely performed in periodontology and oral surgery to fill bone voids. While autogenous bone is considered the gold standard because of its regenerative properties, allografts and xenografts have more commonly been utilized owing to their availability as well as their differential regenerative/biomechanical properties. In particular, xenografts are sintered at high temperatures, which allows for their slower degradation and resorption rates and/or nonresorbable features. As a result, clinicians have combined xenografts with other classes of bone grafts (most notably allografts and autografts in various ratios) for procedures requiring better long-term stability, such as contour grafting, sinus elevation procedures, and vertical bone augmentations. This review addresses the regenerative properties of each class of bone grafts and then highlights the importance of understanding each of their biomechanical and regenerative properties for clinical applications, including extraction site management, contour augmentation, sinus grafting, and horizontal and vertical augmentation procedures. Thereafter, an introduction toward the novel production of nonresorbable bone allografts (NRBAs) via high-temperature sintering is presented. These NRBAs not only pose the advantage of being more biocompatible than xenografts owing to their origin (human vs. animal bone) but also display nonresorbable properties similar to those of xenografts. Thus, while packaging allografts with xenografts in premixtures specific to various clinical indications has never been permitted owing to cross-species contamination and FDA/CE requirements, the discovery and production of NRBAs allows premixing with standard allografts in various ratios without regulatory restrictions. Therefore, premixtures of allografts with NRBAs can be produced in various ratios for specific indications (e.g., a 1:1 ratio similar to an allograft/xenograft mixture for sinus grafting) without the need for purchasing separate classes of bone grafts. This optimized form of bone grafting could theoretically provide clinicians more precise ratios without the need to purchase separate bone grafts. This review highlights the future potential for simplified and optimized bone grafting in periodontology and implant dentistry.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The aims of this clinical trial were to evaluate the radiographic dimensional changes in alveolar ridge and patient-reported outcomes following tooth extraction and alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) using either deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) with EMD or DBBM alone. METHODS: Participants requiring at least one posterior tooth extraction and ARP were randomly allocated into two treatment groups: ARP using either DBBM with EMD or DBBM alone. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images were recorded immediately prior to extraction and at 6 months. Changes in alveolar ridge height (ARH) and alveolar ridge width (ARW) at 1, 3, and 5 mm were recorded. RESULTS: A total of 18 participants with 25 preserved sites were evaluated. ARH and ARW changed significantly from baseline to 6 months for both treatment groups but the difference between the groups was not statistically significant over the 6-month follow-up period (ARH: DBBM/EMD 1.26 ± 1.53 mm vs. DBBM 2.26 ± 1.60 mm; ARW-1 DBBM/EMD 1.98 ± 1.80 mm vs. DBBM 2.34 ± 1.89 mm). A significant difference, favoring DBBM with EMD group, was observed in percentage of sites that had less than 1 mm loss in ARH (54.5% sites in DBBM/EMD group vs. 14.3% sites in DBBM alone group). The participants' perception of bruising, bleeding, and pain in the first two postoperative days was significantly in favor of DBBM alone group. CONCLUSIONS: There were no significant differences in radiographic mean measurements of ARH and ARW following ARB with DBBM and EMD or DBBM alone.

RESUMEN

Objective: This study aimed to histologically compare periodontal regeneration of one-wall intrabony defects treated with open flap debridement, ß-tricalcium phosphate (ß-TCP), and carbonate apatite (CO3Ap) in dogs. Methods: The mandibular third premolars of four beagle dogs were extracted. Twelve weeks after the extraction, a one-wall bone defect of 4 mm × 5 mm (mesio-distal width × depth) was created on the distal side of the mandibular second premolar and mesial side of the fourth premolar. Each defect was randomly allocated to open flap debridement (control group), periodontal regeneration utilizing ß-TCP, or CO3Ap. Eight weeks after the surgery, histologic and histometric analyses were performed. Results: No ankylosis, infection, or acute inflammation was observed at any of the experimental sites. Newly formed bone and cementum were observed in all experimental groups. The mineral apposition rate of the alveolar bone crest was higher in the CO3Ap group than in the control and ß-TCP groups. The ratio of the new bone area was significantly higher in the CO3Ap group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The bone contact percentage of the residual granules was significantly higher in the CO3Ap group than in the ß-TCP group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Although this study has limitations, the findings revealed the safety and efficacy of CO3Ap for periodontal regeneration in one-wall intrabony defects in dogs, and CO3Ap has a better ability to integrate with bone than ß-TCP.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: To investigate and compare the influence of deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) combined with autologous cortical (CorBC) or cancellous bone chips (CanBC) as bone grafts on guided bone regeneration (GBR) in vivo and in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Defects were created in the mandibular buccal alveolar ridges in dogs and randomly filled with 3 groups of bone grafts: DBBM, DBBM + CorBC, or DBBM + CanBC. Osteogenesis was evaluated by sequential fluorescent labeling and histological analysis. Moreover, rat bilateral calvaria defects were randomly grafted with DBBM, DBBM + CorBC, or DBBM + CanBC. A blank group was included as control. Defect healing was assessed by histological staining, micro-CT, and quantitative polymerase chain reaction. In vitro migration, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation assays were performed by stimulating rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs) with cortical (CorBCM) or cancellous bone conditioned medium (CanBCM) to unveil the cellular mechanism. RESULTS: In the canine model, the augmented sites of DBBM + CanBC exhibited higher mineralized tissue proportion than the other two groups (DBBM: 0.61 ± 0.03 versus DBBM + CorBC: 0.69 ± 0.07 versus DBBM + CanBC: 0.86 ± 0.06; p < .05). In the rat model, the BV/TV value of DBBM + CanBC (0.51 ± 0.01) was higher than those of DBBM + CorBC (0.41 ± 0.02), DBBM (0.31 ± 0.01), and Control (0.10 ± 0.01; p < .01). Further radiological, histological and transcriptional results showed similar trends. In vitro experiments revealed that CorBCM and especially CanBCM could enhance rBMSCs migration, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation. CONCLUSION: In vivo and in vitro experiments verified favorable synergistic effect of mixing autologous bone chips with DBBM on osteogenesis. Furthermore, CanBC presented more powerful osteogenic effect than CorBC.

RESUMEN

Orthodontic treatments often involve tooth movement to improve dental alignment. In this study, we aimed to compare tooth movement in regenerated bone induced by two different bone fillers, carbonated hydroxyapatite (CAP) and deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM). Four beagle dogs were used in this comparative study. The first, second, and fourth lower mandibular premolars (P1, P2, and P4) on both sides of the mouth were extracted, and CAP was implanted into the extraction site on the left side and DBBM into the right side. Following regenerative bone healing, orthodontic devices were attached to perform orthodontic tooth movement of the lower third mandibular premolar (P3) on both sides. X-ray examination, intraoral scan, and histological analysis were performed. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for statistical analysis, and p < 0.05 was considered significant. Bone regeneration and orthodontic tooth movement were observed in the CAP and DBBM groups. Histologically, normal periodontal tissue remodeling was observed on the compression and tension sides of CAP and DBBM. No statistical difference was observed in the number of osteoclasts around the periodontal ligament and the root resorption area. Orthodontic tooth movement of regenerated bone induced by CAP and DBBM was therefore achieved.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To assess the dimensional establishment of a bony envelope after alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) with deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) in order to estimate the surgical feasibility of standard diameter implants placement without any additional augmentation methods. METHODS: PubMed, Embase and CENTRAL databases were searched for suitable titles and abstracts using PICO elements. Inclusion criteria were as follows: randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comprising at least ten systemically healthy patients; test groups comprised placement of (collagenated) DBBM w/o membrane and control groups of no grafting, respectively. Selected abstracts were checked regarding their suitability, followed by full-text screening and subsequent statistical data analysis. Probabilities and number needed to treat (NNT) for implant placement without any further need of bone graft were calculated. RESULTS: The initial database search identified 2583 studies. Finally, nine studies with a total of 177 implants placed after ARP with DBBM and 130 implants after SH were included for the quantitative and qualitative evaluation. A mean difference of 1.13 mm in ridge width in favour of ARP with DBBM could be calculated throughout all included studies (95% CI 0.28-1.98, t2 = 1-1063, I2 = 68.0%, p < 0.01). Probabilities for implant placement with 2 mm surrounding bone requiring theoretically no further bone augmentation ranged from 6 to 19% depending on implant diameter (3.25: 19%, RD = 0.19, C = 0.06-0.32, p < 0.01/4.0: 14%, RD = 0.14, C = 0.05-0.23, p < 0.01/5.0: 6%, RD = 0.06, C = 0.00-0.12, p = 0.06). CONCLUSION: ARP employing DBBM reduces ridge shrinkage on average by 1.13 mm and improves the possibility to place standard diameter implants with up to 2 mm circumferential bone housing; however, no ARP would have been necessary or additional augmentative bone interventions are still required in 4 out of 5 cases.

RESUMEN

The purpose of this case report is to introduce a novel guided bone regeneration (GBR) technique that utilized bone harvested from previously grafted maxillary sinus with deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) 16 years ago. The patient is a 63-year-old male with hopeless maxillary right molars due to severe bone loss. Two months after the extraction, two bone blocks were harvested with a trephine drill from the lateral wall. One was used for histologic analysis and the other was crushed into particulate forms, which was used for a GBR procedure around an implant at the time of implant placement. The grafted site was then covered with a resorbable collagen membrane. The histological specimen showed newly-formed bone containing residual DBBM particles. The DBBM in the harvested bone was mostly resorbed; DBBM particles comprised only 3.6% of the total bone volume. The final prosthesis was delivered six months post-operatively. No change in crestal bone around the implant was observed throughout the 2 year follow-up period. Within the limitation of the present case report, previously grafted sinus can be a good donor site for further harvesting for a successful GBR procedure.

RESUMEN

The present study investigated the osteoclast differentiation potential and paracrine effects of osteoclasts on osteoblast differentiation when the cells were cultured directly on two bone substitutes (BSs): deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) and carbonate apatite (CO3 Ap). Human primary osteoclasts cultured on the BSs were assessed by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) and actin ring staining. Thereafter, the mRNA levels of osteoclastic differentiation markers were quantified by real-time PCR. Osteoblast behaviors in response to conditioned media collected from osteoclast cultures were investigated. Interestingly, mature osteoclasts were occasionally observed on the surface of the CO3 Ap granules, whereas very few and small osteoclasts were observed on DBBM. Similarly, real-time PCR analysis showed higher mRNA levels of osteoclast markers, including cathepsin K and TRAP, in the cells cultured on CO3 Ap than in those cultured on DBBM. Furthermore, compared to DBBM, CO3 Ap promoted osteoblast differentiation in human primary osteoblasts, whereas few paracrine effects of osteoclasts cultured with either BS were observed on the osteoblast differentiation potential. These limited results showed that CO3 Ap provided a favorable surface for osteoclast differentiation, as well as osteoblasts, compared to DBBM in vitro.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The effect of different deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) particle sizes on bone healing in maxillary sinus floor augmentation remains unclear. This study compared the newly formed tissue and angiogenesis-related bone healing after sinus floor augmentation using large or small DBBM particles. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Overall 32 patients were randomly divided into two groups using either large (1-2 mm) or small (0.25-1 mm) DBBM particles for sinus floor augmentation. After 6 months, the mineralized tissue volume was calculated using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) analysis. The newly formed tissue composition was histomorphometrically analyzed. Angiogenesis was also examined by means of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression. Implant failure and marginal bone loss were measured at a 1-year follow-up. Statistical analysis was performed using independent samples t-test. RESULTS: Micro-CT analysis demonstrated that grafting with large particles resulted in higher bone volume (6.99 ± 2.72 mm3 , p = 0.002) and Bone Volume/Tissue Volume (0.25 ± 0.1, p = 0.03) compared with small particles (3.76 ± 1.83 mm3 and 0.14 ± 0.13, respectively). Small particles showed higher non-mineralized tissue volume (26.31 mm3 ) compared with large particle group (17.4 ± 5.34 mm3 ) with p = 0.001. The histological data revealed significantly higher area of newly formed bone (32.15% ± 14.04% for the large particle and 15.99% ± 14.12% for the small particle groups, p = 0.004). Likewise, non-mineralized tissue was significantly greater in the small particle group (66.48% ± 20.97%) compared with the large particle group (44.36%, p = 0.016). Moreover, use of large particles resulted in a significantly higher VEGF staining intensity score and VEFG positive cells. No implant failure was recorded in both groups, while no difference was found in terms of marginal bone loss at the 1-year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Sinus floor augmentation using large DBBM particles resulted in more angiogenesis expression, higher bone volume, and new bone formation at 6 months after sinus augmentation. However, clinical outcomes with regards to implant placement were similar in both groups.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Bone regeneration procedures represent a major challenge in oral surgery. This study aimed to evaluate a composite PRF/particulate xenograft in guided bone regeneration. METHODS: Edentulous patients with horizontal ridge deficiencies in the anterior maxilla and candidates to an immediate-loading full-arch rehabilitation were included. Horizontal linear measurements indicating bone gain were assessed from computer beam computer tomography (CBCT) scans obtained at pre-surgery, post-surgery, and the 12-month follow-up. Mean bone values were presented as mean ± 95% CI. Non-parametric tests were used as appropriate, and the effect size was calculated with Cohen's d repeated measures. RESULTS: Eighteen patients were rehabilitated with 72 implants. The mean horizontal bone width was 4.47 [4.13-4.80] mm pre-surgically, 9.25 [8.76-9.75] mm post-surgically, and 7.71 [7.28-8.14] mm 12 months after. CONCLUSIONS: PRF associated with a xenograft seems to promote an effective horizontal bone gain. Randomized clinical trials are needed to confirm the benefits of this surgical approach.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: We aimed to histologically evaluate the influence of bone materials used during guided bone regeneration (GBR) on subsequent peri-implantitis in an experimental ligature-induced peri-implantitis model in beagle dogs. METHODS: Bilateral mandibular premolars (PM2-4) were extracted from six beagle dogs. After 3 months, standardized bone defects (3 mm [mesio-distal width] × 2 mm [bucco-lingual width] × 3 mm [depth]) were created in the experimental group, with simultaneous dental implant placement at the center of the defects. The defects were randomly filled with either autograft (AG) or deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) and covered with a collagen membrane. In the control group, implant fixtures were placed without creating an intrabony defect. After 3 months, a healing abutment was placed. Four weeks later, a 3-0 silk thread was ligated around the implants to induce peri-implantitis. After 4 weeks, the specimens were dissected and histologically examined. RESULTS: There were no clinical findings of inflammation until silk thread ligation. Four weeks after the onset of peri-implantitis, gingival redness and swelling were seen with mild resorption of the peri-implant bone on dental radiographs. There were no significant differences between the AG, DBBM, and control groups for the following parameters: bone-to-implant contact, distance from the implant shoulder to the base of the bone defect, area of bone defect, and area of new bone. CONCLUSIONS: Within the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that peri-implant tissues after GBR using AG and DBBM underwent the same degree of bone resorption by peri-implantitis as the no defect group.

RESUMEN

Objective:To evaluate the medium and long term clinical effect of three bone graft materials on periodontitis after periodontal regeneration.Methods:Initially, 16 patients with periodontitis after periodontal regeneration in Tianjin Stomatological Hospital from July 2017 to November 2018 were divided into three groups: Bio-Oss ( n=6), Bio-Gene ( n=5) and Bone 3(n=5) according to the differences in bone materials. Clinical and radiological results were evaluated at pre-surgery, post-6 months, and post-4 years. Results:The 6-month and 4-year clinical follow-up showed that, the depth of exploration (PD) and clinical attachment loss (CAL) of patients in the three groups were lower than those before operation (all P<0.05), and the changes of PD (ΔPD) and CAL (ΔCAL) were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in gingival recession (GR) between the three groups (all P>0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference in the change of GR (ΔGR) between the groups (all P>0.05). From 6 months to 4 years after operation, there was no significant difference among ΔGR, ΔPD and ΔCAL groups (all P>0.05). At 6 months and 4 years after operation, the residual alveolar bone height (RBH%) of the three groups was significantly higher than that before operation (all P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between the two groups (all P>0.05); From 6 months to 4 years after operation, there was no significant difference in RBH% between the groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Three kinds of bone graft materials have significant clinical effects on periodontitis after periodontal regeneration, which can provide a reference for the selection of clinical regeneration materials.

RESUMEN

Peri-implantitis is a site-specific infectious disease that causes an inflammatory process in soft tissues, and bone loss around an osseointegrated implant in function. Several techniques with non-surgical or surgical debridement and decontamination followed by ongoing supportive therapy or regeneration of the peri-implant bone defects have been proposed in the literature. However, the literature is still unclear on an effective protocol for implant surface decontamination or the appropriate choice of regenerative materials. This case series describes a surgical technique to treat peri-implantitis osseous defects using a mixture of deproteinized bovine bone mineral with 10% porcine collagen (DBBM-C) in a block form, soaked in an appropriate antibiotic. The use of this combination provides advantages such as good graft adaptability along with localized antibiotic release without the use of systemic antibiotics. Thus, this technique might be an effective method to treat amenable peri-implantitis defects. Additionally, the proposed algorithm also allows for customized culture based antibiotic loading. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first case series documenting this technique for peri-implantitis defects. Long-term studies with controlled samples would be necessary for further evaluation.

RESUMEN

AIM: To assess whether the use of deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) and native bilayer collagen membrane (NBCM) improved healing of peri-implantitis-related bone defects at 12 months. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a multi-centre, randomized clinical trial, 32 individuals received surgical debridement (control group [CG]), and 34 received adjunct use of DBBM and NBCM (test group [TG]). Radiographic defect fill (RDF), probing pocket depth (PPD), bleeding on probing (BOP), suppuration (SUP), recession (REC), cytokines (IL-1ß, IL-1RA, IL-6, IL-8, IL-12, IP10, PDGF-BB, TNF-α, VEGF), and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were evaluated at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. RESULTS: RDF at the deepest site amounted 2.7 ± 1.3 mm in TG and 1.4 ± 1.2 mm in CG (p <.0001). PPD was reduced by 1.9 mm in TG and 2.3 mm in CG (p = .5783). There were no significant differences between groups regarding reductions of BOP, SUP, REC, cytokines levels, or oral health impact profile (OHIP)-14 scores at 12 months. Successful treatment (RDF ≥ 1.0 mm, PPD ≤5 mm, ≤1/4 site with BOP grade 1, no SUP) was identified in 32% in TG and 21% in CG. CONCLUSIONS: DBBM and NBCM resulted in significantly more RDF than debridement alone. No difference was found in any clinical parameters or PROs between the groups. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02375750.

RESUMEN

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 used in combination with deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) on the healing of experimental periodontal defects. Periodontal defects created in rats were treated by FGF-2, DBBM, FGF-2 + DBBM, or left unfilled. Microcomputed tomography, histological, and immunohistochemical examinations were used to evaluate healing. In vitro cell viability/proliferation on DBBM with/without FGF-2 was assessed by WST-1. Cell behavior was analyzed using scanning electron and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Osteogenic differentiation was evaluated by staining with alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red. Bone volume fraction was significantly greater in FGF-2 and FGF-2 + DBBM groups than in other groups at 2 and 4 weeks postoperatively. In histological assessment, newly formed bone in FGF-2 and FGF-2 + DBBM groups appeared to be greater than other groups. Significantly greater levels of proliferating cell nuclear antigen-, vascular endothelial growth factor-, and osterix-positive cells were observed in FGF-2 and FGF-2 + DBBM groups compared to Unfilled group. In vitro, addition of FGF-2 to DBBM promoted cell viability/proliferation, attachment/spreading, and osteogenic differentiation. The combination therapy using FGF-2 and DBBM was similarly effective as FGF-2 alone in the healing of experimental periodontal defects. In certain bone defect configurations, the combined use of FGF-2 and DBBM may enhance healing via promotion of cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and osteogenic differentiation.
