Objectives This study aims to compare the treatment outcomes of periodontal intrabony
defects by using platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) with other commonly utilized modalities. Materials …

Several treatment modalities have been proposed to regenerate bone, including guided
bone regeneration (GBR) where barrier membranes play an important role by isolating soft …

Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate (EGCG), a component extracted from green tea, has been
proved to have multiple effects on human pathological and physiological processes, and its …

Although the integrity of the jawbone is preserved through the stimulus of chewing, tooth
loss caused by disease or trauma leads to alveolar bone resorption (Figs. 1 and 2). In order …

Alveolar ridge preservation is routinely indicated in clinical practice with the purpose of
attenuating postextraction ridge atrophy. Over the past two decades numerous clinical …

Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is a widely used technique for alveolar bone
augmentation. Among all the principal elements, barrier membrane is recognized as the key …

Post-extraction crestal bone resorption is common and unavoidable which can lead to
significant ridge dimensional changes. To regenerate enough bone for successful implant …

Purpose: Alveolar ridge augmentation is essential for success in implant therapy and
depends on the biological performance of bone graft materials. This literature review aims to …

A variety of traumatic events cause alveolar bone loss. These traumatic events include tooth
loss, sinus pneumatization, periodontal disease, facial and dentoalveolar trauma …

Aliphatic polycarbonates have drawn attention as biodegradable polymers that can be
applied to a broad range of resorbable medical devices. In particular, poly (trimethylene …
