OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of regenerative periodontal therapy on clinical parameters and interleukin-8 (IL-8), IL-17 and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of subjects with chronic periodontitis (CP). MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifteen patients received demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) su...

BACKGROUND Socket preservation after tooth extraction is one of the indications of bone grafting to enhance preorthodontic condition. The aim of this study is to determine the effects of socket preservation on the immediate tooth movement, alveolar ridge height preservation and orthodontic root resorption. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a split-mouth technique, twelve sites in three dogs were inves...

background and aims. furcally-involved teeth present unique challenges to the success of periodontal therapy and influence treatment outcomes. this study aimed to assess to compare use of adm and connective tissue membrane in class ii furcation defect regeneration. materials and methods. 10 patient with 2 bilaterally class ii furcation defects in first and/or second maxilla or man-dibular molar...

Tissue engineering is a clinical approach toward the development of dynamic molecular delivery that can restore and improve regeneration. The 3D models and regenerative principles applied during implant guided dental surgery open new approaches for tissue constructs favoring sinus lift and implant placement. Purpose: The aim of the present clinical study was to determine evidence that synergy b...

information about how to manage the extraction socket with regenerative techniques (Barone et al, 2008). This will simplify and lead to more predictable placement of implants in the most ideal position (Cardaropoli, Araújo, Lindhe, 2003; Cardaropoli et al, 2005). The results of a recent study show that acellular dermal matrix (ADM), used as membrane associated with an inorganic bovine-derived h...

Platelet rich fibrin (PRF), developed in France by Choukroun et al(2001), is a second generation platelet concentrate widely used to accelerate soft and hard tissue healing. It’s advantages over the better known platelet rich plasma (PRP) include ease of preparation & application, minimal expense and no need of biochemical blood handling (no bovine thrombin or anticoagulants required). This art...
