Sinus floor augmentation (SFA) is one of the techniques that has been proposed for improving the long-term retention of dental implants. The procedure involves the creation of a submucoperiosteal pocket in the floor of the maxillary sinus for placement of a graft consisting of autogenous, allogenic, or alloplastic material. Complications of the SFA predominantly consist of disturbed wound heali...

Surgeons can now control osteogenesis through local application of BMP-2. BMP’s are osteoinductive proteins that are located in bone matrix and are responsible for embryonic skeletal formation and bone healing. Marshal Urist first coined the term “bone morphogenic protein” over 40 years ago. Recombinant human BMP-2 is an osteoinductive growth factor that has the potential to make autogenous bon...

Secondary alveolar bone grafting is a method that enables an excellent oral rehabilitation of the patients having cleft palate. Many types of bone grafts have been used for reconstruction of the cleft, including autogenous bone and bone substitutes. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has been shown to be effective in grafting the defect. The aim of this presentation is to report the closure of an alveo...

In recent years autogenous cancellous bone grafting has become the standard treatment for delayed union offractures in many centres. In this technique strips ofiliac bone are applied subperiosteally around the fracture site like barrel staves, which are held in position merely by suture of the overlying periosteum. Nevertheless the literature contains surprisingly few reviews extensive enough t...

Although autogenous tooth transplantation is a widely reported procedure, its success is dependent on a number of factors. Here we describe the surgical technique, endodontic treatment and rehabilitation employed for a patient in whom a lower right third molar was transplanted to substitute an adjacent second molar with extensive caries. During an 8-year follow-up period, normal periodontal hea...

Cement-based materials are the most widely used construction in world for infrastructure works. Unfortunately, they come with a high environmental burden due to carbon dioxide emissions and need regular maintenance repairs. Without these, service life can decrease. By using self-healing approach, be extended, as well durability sustainability of building material. As ability self-heal depends o...

Maxillofacial bone defects are common medical problems caused by congenital defects, necrosis, trauma, tumor, inflammation, and fractures non-union. often need graft, which has many difficulties, such as limited autogenous supply donor site morbidity. Bone tissue engineering is a promising strategy to overcome the above-mentioned problems. Osteoimmunology inter-discipline that focuses on relati...
