BACKGROUND: One of the major disadvantages of mandibular distraction osteogenesis
(MDO) is the prolonged time required for consolidation of the regenerate bone. The …

Purpose The purpose of the study was to investigate the histopathological effects of low
level laser therapy (LLLT) application in distraction osteogenesis (DO). Materials and …

This study compared the effect of systemic and local administration of alendronate on
distraction osteogenesis in rabbit mandibles. Thirty New Zealand white rabbits were …

OBJECTIVES.: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of latency period on the
bone formation after periosteal distraction. For this purpose, a rabbit model was developed …

Background: The traditional method of distraction required a long period until the new bone
was fully fused. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of cyclic and repetitive compressive …

Background Findings from animal and human studies have indicated that an oily calcium
hydroxide suspension (OCHS) may improve early wound healing in the treatment of …

Aim To develop a treatment plan for cases in which a bone defect is located on the
osteotomy line of mandibular osteodistraction (DO). Subjects and methods Bilateral DO was …

Animal models are essential in order to understand the basic biology underlying
dentomaxillofacial anomalies and diseases, as well as to evaluate the various medications …

Distraction osteogenesis is a technique in which the callus formed between the bone
segments removed by traction turns into new bone formation. It is used in the treatment of …

This project represents the development and application of tissue engineered constructs for
the prevention of antiresorptive drug related osteonecrosis of the jaws (ARONJ). The project …
