Background: Regenerative periodontal therapy aims to predictably restore the tooth's
supporting periodontal tissues and should result in formation of a new connective tissue …

Dental implants are now widely used for the replacement of missing teeth in fully or partially
edentulous patients and for cranial reconstructions. However, risks of failure, which may …

Translation of experimental data to the clinical setting requires the safety and efficacy of
such data to be confirmed in animal systems before application in humans. In dental …

Sinus augmentation has become an integrated surgical phase in posterior maxillary implant
prosthesis reconstruction. Since the residual alveolar bony height usually requires …

Objectives: Bone replacement substitutes are almost unavoidable in augmentation
procedures such as sinus grafting. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the …

The purpose of this study was to compare extraction sites augmented with bovine bone
mineral (BBM) with and without resorbable membrane coverage. BBM particles were grafted …

The effect of substituting sodium for calcium on enhanced osteoconductivity of
hydroxyapatite was newly investigated. Sodium‐substituted hydroxyapatite was synthesized …

PURPOSE: To determine the efficacy of an alloplastic graft material, consisting of a pure-
phase β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), in the preservation of ridge volume after tooth …

Regenerative procedures using barrier membrane technology are presently well
established in periodontal/endodontic surgery. The objective of this study was to compare …

The evolution of implant stability in bone tissue remains difficult to assess because
remodeling phenomena at the bone-implant interface are still poorly understood. The …
