We developed a novel bone grafting material that incorporates autogenous teeth (AutoBT), and provided the basis for its clinical application. AutoBT contains organic and inorganic mineral components and is prepared from autogenous grafting material, thus eliminating the risk of an immune reaction that may lead to rejection. AutoBT was used at the time of implant placement, simultaneously with o...

Biomechanics may be considered as central in the development of bone tissue engineering. The initial mechanical aspects are essential to the outcome of a functional tissue engineering approach; so are aspects of interface micromotion, bone ingrowths inside the scaffold and finally, the mechanical integrity of the scaffold during its degradation. A proposed view is presented herein on how biomec...

Autologous bone remains the gold standard substitute in clinical practice. Therefore, microarchitecture of newly developed synthetic substitutes, which reflects spatial distribution materials scaffold, aims to recapitulate natural microarchitecture. However, is optimized obtain a mechanically stable, lightweight structure adapted biomechanical loading situation. In context application Triply Pe...

Alteration of the geometrical surface configuration of cortical bone allografts may improve incorporation into host bone. A porous biodegradable coating that would maintain immediate structural recovery and subsequently allow normal graft healing and remodeling by promoting bony ingrowth could provide an osteoconductive surface scaffold. We investigated the feasibility of augmenting cortical bo...

BACKGROUND Maxillary sinus floor augmentation procedures are currently the treatment of choice when the alveolar crest of the posterior maxilla is insufficient for dental implant anchorage. This procedure aims to obtain enough bone with biomaterial association with the autogenous bone graft to create volume and allow osteoconduction. The objective of this study was to histologically and histome...
