Background: One of the important criteria for successful treatment of bone defects with calcium phosphate osteoplastic materials is a full-fledged recovery of the biomechanical characteristics of the injured bone. However, the information regarding the effect of β-tricalcium phosphate on the biomechanical dynamics of the healing of the defect compact bone in the scientific literature is not pre...

This study aimed to investigate the free calcium released from different brands of toothpaste after incorporation with a beta-tricalcium phosphate (?-TCP)/amorphous (ACP) mixed powder and ?-TCP alone. Four were used for experiment: Nano-Bio Activation Toothpaste, Colgate Total Advanced Whitening BORONIA Herbal Whitening, BioMin F. The investigated ACP powders prepared by two-step sintering meth...

BACKGROUND Multirooted teeth offer unique and challenging problems due to the furcation area, creates situations in which routine periodontal procedures are somewhat limited and special procedures are generally required. CASE DETAIL The present case was showing the management of grade II furcation defect by platelet rich fibrin (PRF) and β-Tricalcium phosphate with coronally advanced flap. ...

Background: Guided bone regeneration (GBR) using osteoconductive graft materials has been used for osseous defect healing. The aim of this translational research study was to design and test a critical size calvarial (CSD) model in rats, GBR with beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP), histology micro computed tomography (micro-CT) assessment.Methods: Female Wistar albino rats (n=10) weighing 300...

INTRODUCTION Bone defects are rather common after oral surgery and may prove difficult to repair. OBJECTIVE We provide a histomorphological analysis of the bone regenerative capacity of platelet-rich plasma at different concentrations and the extraction of platelet-rich bone marrow, compared with beta-tricalcium phosphate. METHODOLOGY We performed an experimental study on 8 pigs, in which w...

OBJECTIVES Synthetic calcium phosphate bone substitutes such as hydroxyapatite (HA), beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP) or mixtures are alternatives to autogenous bone grafts. TricOs T((R)) and Collagraft((R)) are resorbable bone substitutes consisting of biphasic calcium phosphate and a bioactive matrix. Both products have a similar HA to beta-TCP ratio, but differ by their matrix. It was th...

Millions of patients worldwide remain inadequately treated for bone defects related to factors such as disease or trauma. The drawbacks of metallic implant and autograft/allograft use have steered therapeutic approaches towards tissue engineering solutions involving tissue regeneration scaffolds. This study proposes a composite scaffold with properties tailored to address the macro- and microen...

Di fferent types of osteoclastic cell s (authentic osteoclasis from human giant cell tumor and bone marrow of newborn rats; newly-formed osteoclasis from adult ra t bone marrow), gian t multinucleated cell s and macrophages were studied for their effec t on syn thetic and natu ral mineralized substrata. Biphasic calcium phosphate ceramic consisted of hydroxyapatite and beta tricalcium phosphate...

Hydroxyapatite/alpha-alumina composites were prepared by means of high-energy vibratory ball milling. The effect of the addition of alumina, from 5 to 25 wt%, was investigated. x-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) results indicated thathydroxyapatite andaluminawere themajorphases aftermechanicalmilling and only small peak shifts were observed. Transmission...

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) contains a mixture of growth factors that play an important role in wound and fracture healing. While PRP enhanced bone formation by autogenous cancellous bone grafts, its influence in combination with different bone substitutes remained unknown. This study evaluated the effect of PRP on osteogenic differentiation and ectopic bone formation of human mesenchymal stem c...
