[PMID: 35207140 PMCID: PMC8880529 DOI: 10.3390/membranes12020219] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2022] [Revised: 01/30/2022] [Accepted: 02/09/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
Teeth with furcation involvement (FI) present a higher risk of loss and are difficult to maintain. This study evaluated the efficacy of furcation defect regeneration (FDR) as a regeneration strategy. Pre-operative and 6-month postoperative radiographs were collected from patients receiving regeneration therapy for mandibular teeth with degree II and early degree III FI. The linear furcation involvement (LFI), ratio of LFI (RLI), LFI and RLI adjusted bythe alveolar bone crest (ABC), and radiographic intensity were assessed. The effects of demographic characteristics, regeneration treatment strategies, the relationship between furcation and ABC, and adjacent intrabony defect regeneration (AIDR) were evaluated using a generalized linear model and logistic regression. The results demonstrated that 1.5 mm adjusted LFI and 40% adjusted RLI were achieved in both pure furcation defects and combined furcation–angular defects by the combination of bone replacement grafts (BRG) and enamel matrix derivatives (EMD) or collagen membrane (CM); deproteinized bovine bone matrix (DBBM) showed a superior outcome among BRG. In combined furcation–angular defects, EMD appeared more beneficial than CM, and AIDR significantly promoted adjusted LFI and RLI. In conclusion, DBBM with EMD or CM was effective for FDR, and AIDR had a positive effect on FDR in the combined furcation–angular defect.

Abstract
Total mandibular reconstruction is one of the most challenging modalities in maxillofacial surgery. In this article, we try to introduce a method of total mandible reconstruction. We report a 25-year-old male patient with complete involvement of the mandible by Langerhans cell tumor. The patient underwent total mandibulectomy and reconstruction with bone allograft harvested from a donor who had died the day before. The patient has good functional and aesthetic results in a long time. It seems that bone allograft can be a good alternative to other methods in total mandibular reconstruction.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this clinical trial was to evaluate the efficacy of demineralized bone matrix (DBM) as a bone graft material in the treatment of human intrabony periodontal defects as compared with control defects treated by open flap debridement (OFD) alone. MATERIALS AND METHODS A controlled clinical trial was carried out for a period of 9 months in 11 patients (4 males and 7 females) with an age group of 25-50 years, contributing to a total of 30 defects. The selected defects were then randomly divided in to experimental sites (OFD + DBM) and control sites (OFD alone). Probing depth, clinical attachment levels and position of the gingival margin were recorded at baseline 3, 6 and 9 months post-operatively. Standardized radiographs (parallel technique) were also documented at these recall intervals. RESULTS On completion of 9 months, the mean percentage of probing depth reduction achieved in the experimental sites and control sites was 61.70%, 23.86% respectively. The mean percentage of clinical attachment level gain was 61.34% and 19.37% in the experimental and control sites respectively. In the experimental sites recession was observed to a lesser extent. CONCLUSION The use of DBM was more effective than OFD in improving clinical parameters and radiographic bone fill as shown in the present study. However, there is a need for further long term studies.

Abstract
Putty form graft materials may have additional favourable effects when compared with particulate ones in periodontal bone defects. The purpose of this study was to assess clinical and also radiographic changes following application of (i) putty form demineralized bone matrix (DBM), (ii) particulate form DBM and (iii) open flap debridement (control), using modified curtain suturing technique in the treatment of interproximal suprabony (horizontal) defects. Twenty-five chronic periodontitis patients with 125 sites (radiologically >or=4 mm horizontal bone defect) were selected to participate in this triple-blind, split mouth, randomized, controlled clinical trial. Putty and particulate form DBM grafts were placed at experimental sites. Clinical measurements included probing depth (PD), relative attachment level (RAL), gingival recession and bone probing depth (BPD) were made at baseline and repeated 12 months after the operations. Standardized digital radiographs were also taken to measure radiographic bone level (RBL) at baseline and 12 months later to be compared in a software. Probing depth reductions and RAL gains were significantly improved in all treatment groups (P < 0.001). No significant differences in soft tissue parameters were found among three groups (P > 0.05). Bone probing depth measurements indicated comparable significant bone gain in graft applied groups (P < 0.01) and a significant bone resorption in open flap debridement group (P < 0.01). Radiographic evaluation did not show any significant bone gain or resorption in all treatment groups (P > 0.05). The results of this study indicate that either putty or particulate DBM demonstrates similar enhancements in soft and hard tissue parameters. Applying putty or particulate form DBM results with slight bone formation when compared with open flap debridement in horizontal bone defects at 1-year post-operative examination according to BPD measurements.

Abstract
Demineralised, freeze-dried bone allografts (DFDBA) have been used extensively by dentists in the treatment of periodontal and periapical osseous defects resulting from inflammatory diseases. Their use in India however, is limited by the availability of quality allografts and the high cost of imported alternatives. A study was conducted to assess the osteogenic potential of DFDBA prepared for the first time in India by the Tata Memorial Hospital (TMH) Tissue Bank. The DFDBA was used in the treatment of osseous defects after removal of periapical lesions associated with devitalised teeth in 10 healthy patients. At the 6-month recall visit all the patients showed a remarkable decrease in the grades of mobility, and 9 out of the 10 patients showed radiographic evidence of complete healing of the osseous defects with evidence of normal bony trabaeculae. These findings indicate that the indigenously prepared DFDBA is a cost effective, biocompatible material with osteogenic potential that can be used effectively in treating osseous defects of periapical lesions associated with non vital teeth.

Abstract
Demineralized freeze-dried bone (DFDB) in matrix form must be rehydrated with a carrier medium which allows for easy manipulation during periodontal surgery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate how human DFDB suspended in a polyol matrix affects new bone formation in the rat calvarium critical-sized defect (CSD) model. Fifty-five adult male Harlan Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to 1 of 5 treatment groups: polyol, 100% DFDB, 47% DFDB/polyol, 47% DFDB, or an unfilled control. They were then placed into 8-m calvarial CSDs. The bone donor source company for the DFDB and DFDB/polyol groups was the same. Calvaria were harvested 10 weeks after surgery and evaluated histomorphometrically. The diameter of bone particles from the 3 groups containing DFDB was measured by scanning electron microscopy. There was no statistically significant difference in the percentage of bone fill between any of the groups, although the 100% DFDB group exhibited the most bone fill. The 47% DFDB/polyol and 47% DFDB groups had similar amounts of bone formation. The average size of the demineralized bone particles from the 100% DFDB group was significantly smaller than that of the other 2 groups containing DFDB. Adding a polyol to DFDB produced similar osseous regeneration in the rat calvarium defect model vs DFDB alone. Yet from a clinical standpoint, the polyol enhanced graft handling and stability. Graft particle size may have an effect on bone fill.

Abstract
The placement of dental implants is based on the amount of alveolar bone present in the edentulous site to be reconstructed. Insufficient alveolar contours may require bone grafting procedures to restore an adequate bone volume before implant placement. Larger osseous defects often require block grafts harvested from the symphysis or the ramus buccal shelf region. These provide adequate donor sites to harvest a graft sufficient to restore a significant defect in the osseous structures planned for implant placements. Autogenous block grafts have been well established to reconstruct these types of defects prior to implant placement procedures. However, surgical complications associated with the unfavorable anatomical structures and the necessity of large donor sites (e.g., symphysis and ramus buccal shelf) have led to the use of allogenic grafting materials. Recent developments in allogenic grafting materials have lead to the development of a corticocancellous block graft harvested from the iliac crest region. This study evaluates the clinical indications of these allogenic graft materials to replace compromised alveolar bone defects both horizontal and vertical in nature. The analysis is supported by re-entry procedures and histologic evaluations to substantiate predictability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Demineralized bone matrix (DBX) paste and putty are particulate demineralized bone matrices in a 2% or 4% hyaluronate carrier, respectively. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of DBX paste and putty compared to demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) in the treatment of human intraosseous periodontal defects. METHODS Sixty systemically healthy individuals between the ages of 31 and 71 years with at least one intraosseous periodontal defect of > or = 3 mm in depth and radiographic evidence of at least 40% to 50% vertical bone loss were accrued. Following initial non-surgical periodontal therapy, sites were randomly selected to receive either DBX paste, DBX putty, or DFDBA (control). Baseline and 6-month reentry soft and hard tissue parameter measurements were made by calibrated examiners. Data were analyzed within and between groups utilizing analysis of variance (ANOVA) and paired and unpaired Student t tests. RESULTS Probing depth reductions were significantly improved in all treatment groups with DFDBA, DBX paste, and putty patients demonstrating 2.8 mm, 3.6 mm, and 2.3 mm, respectively. Attachment level gains were significantly improved from baseline for all treatment groups with DFDBA, DBX paste, and putty, respectively, demonstrating 2.4 mm, 2.9 mm, and 1.6 mm. Bone fill was similar between all groups with DBX paste, putty, and DFDBA control groups demonstrating 2.0 mm, 2.4 mm, and 2.2 mm, respectively. All groups yielded significant improvements in percent bone fill with DFDBA, DBX paste and putty, respectively, achieving 37%, 42.1%, and 50% with no significant differences between the groups. CONCLUSION In summary, demineralized bone matrix paste, demineralized bone matrix putty, and demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft all demonstrated similar favorable improvements in soft and hard tissue parameters in the treatment of human intraosseous defects.

Abstract
We have been studying the potential of human fibroblastic cells (HFC) from periapical granulation tissue to form a calcified matrix. Recently, we reported that inflamed periapical granulation tissue contains osteogenic cells. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that HFC, cultured with decalcified bone (DB) of rat, might form much greater calcified matrices than with rat decalcified boiled bone (DBB), which was originally prepared as a negative control. HFC were cultured with DB or DBB in the presence or absence of 2 mM beta-glycerophosphate (beta-GP) and 50 microg/ml ascorbic acid. After six weeks of culture, a number of von Kossa-positive globular structures were unexpectedly observed inside DBB, but not DB. Without HFC, such structures were never seen in DBB incubated with 2 mM beta-GP and 50 microg/ml ascorbic acid. DB cultured with HFC under the same conditions did not show these structures. Electron-microscopic observation revealed that matrix vesicles aggregated on collagen fibrils around globular structures in DBB. Energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis confirmed that these structures were calcified matrices composed of calcium and phosphate. These results suggest that human periapical granulation tissue contains cells responsible for the formation of calcified matrices in DBB, and that DBB could serve as an excellent scaffold for the calcification of HFC, rather than DB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone replacement grafts (BRG) are widely used in the treatment of periodontal osseous defects; however, the clinical benefits of this therapeutic practice require further clarification through a systematic review of randomized controlled studies. RATIONALE The purpose of this systematic review is to access the efficacy of bone replacement grafts in proving demonstrable clinical improvements in periodontal osseous defects compared to surgical debridement alone. FOCUSED QUESTION What is the effect of bone replacement grafts compared to other interventions on clinical, radiographic, adverse, and patient-centered outcomes in patients with periodontal osseous defects? SEARCH PROTOCOL The computerized bibliographical databases MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched from 1966 and 1974, respectively, to October 2002 for randomized controlled studies in which bone replacement grafts were compared to other surgical interventions in the treatment of periodontal osseous defects. The search strategy included screening of review articles and reference lists of retrieved articles as well as hand searches of selected journals. INCLUSION CRITERIA All searches were limited to human studies in English language publications. EXCLUSION CRITERIA Non-randomized observational studies (e.g., case reports, case series), publications providing summary statistics without variance estimates or data to permit computation, and studies without BRG intervention alone were excluded. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS The therapeutic endpoints examined included changes in bone level, clinical attachment level, probing depth, gingival recession, and crestal resorption. For purposes of meta-analysis, change in bone level (bone fill) was used as the primary outcome measure, measured upon surgical re-entry or transgingival probing (sounding). MAIN RESULTS 1. Forty-nine controlled studies met eligibility criteria and provided clinical outcome data on intrabony defects following grafting procedures. 2. Seventeen studies provided clinical outcome data on BRG materials for the treatment of furcation defects. REVIEWERS' CONCLUSIONS 1. With respect to the treatment of intrabony defects, the results of meta-analysis supported the following conclusions: 1) bone grafts increase bone level, reduce crestal bone loss, increase clinical attachment level, and reduce probing depth compared to open flap debridement (OFD) procedures; 2) No differences in clinical outcome measures emerge between particulate bone allograft and calcium phosphate (hydroxyapatite) ceramic grafts; and 3) bone grafts in combination with barrier membranes increase clinical attachment level and reduce probing depth compared to graft alone. 2. With respect to the treatment of furcation defects, 15 controlled studies provided data on clinical outcomes. Insufficient studies of comparable design were available to submit data to meta-analysis. Nonetheless, outcome data from these studies generally indicated positive clinical benefits with the use of grafts in the treatment of Class II furcations. 3. With respect to histological outcome parameters, 2 randomized controlled studies provide evidence that demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) supports the formation of a new attachment apparatus in intrabony defects, whereas OFD results in periodontal repair characterized primarily by the formation of a long junctional epithelial attachment. Multiple observational studies provide consistent histological evidence that autogenous and demineralized allogeneic bone grafts support the formation of new attachment. Limited data also suggest that xenogenic bone grafts can support the formation of a new attachment apparatus. In contrast, essentially all available data indicate that alloplastic grafts support periodontal repair rather than regeneration. 4. The results of this systematic review indicate that bone replacement grafts provide demonstrable clinical improvements in periodontal osseous defects compared to surgical debridement alone.

Abstract
Autogenous block bone grafts have been highly successful in treating human periodontal defects, restoring esthetics, and developing adequate bone volume for dental implant placement. Limitations in available donor bone, the need for an added surgical procedure, and other potential complications have made the use of allogenic bone graft materials an important alternative. One patient described in this report presented with fractured root syndrome of the right maxillary incisor with severe resorption of the buccal plate. After atraumatic tooth extraction, a staged treatment approach involving localized ridge augmentation with an allogenic iliac bone block material and dental implant placement was used. The host bone completely incorporated the graft with only minor resorption, which enabled the implant to be placed. The allogenic bone block material used in this study was an effective alternative to harvesting and grafting autogenous bone for implant site development. The cases presented in this article clinically demonstrate the efficacy of using a block allograft in generating effective new bone fill for dental implant placement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Demineralized freeze-dried bone (DFDB) is commonly hydrated with sterile water into a paste-like consistency for improved clinical handling or reconstituted with biodegradable barriers, such as glycerol, to promote handling and wound stability following human periodontal surgery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the in vivo effects of glycerol-compounded human DFDB on bone formation in the rat calvarial critical-sized defect (CSD) model. METHODS Forty-eight adult male Harland Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to one of four treatment groups: glycerol, DFDB, DFDB plus glycerol, or a non-grafted control, and placed into 8 mm calvarial CSDs. DFDB (particle size 0.106 to 0.5 mm), glycerol, and their combination were from identical sources. Calvaria were harvested at 8 weeks postsurgery and evaluated histomorphometrically. RESULTS A statistically significant increased percentage of total bone fill was detected in the glycerol plus DFDB group and DFDB group as compared to glycerol group or the control. However, no significant difference was noted between the DFDB plus glycerol group and the DFDB group. CONCLUSION The addition of glycerol to DFDB results in comparable osseous regeneration in the rat calvarium defect model versus DFDB alone; however, based upon clinical judgment, handling characteristics of DFDB were greatly improved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Purified recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor BB (rhPDGF-BB) is a potent wound healing growth factor and stimulator of the proliferation and recruitment of both periodontal ligament (PDL) and bone cells. The hypothesis tested in this study was that application of rhPDGF-BB incorporated in bone allograft would induce regeneration of a complete new attachment apparatus, including bone, periodontal ligament, and cementum in human interproximal intrabony defects and molar Class II furcation lesions. METHODS Nine adult patients (15 sites) with advanced periodontitis exhibiting at least one tooth requiring extraction due to an extensive interproximal intrabony and/or molar Class II furcation defect were entered into the study. Eleven defects were randomly selected to receive rhPDGF-BB. Following full-thickness flap reflection and initial debridement, the tooth roots were notched at the apical extent of the calculus, the osseous defects were thoroughly debrided, and the tooth root(s) were planed/prepared. The osseous defects were then filled with demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) saturated with one of three concentrations of rhPDGF-BB (0.5 mg/ml, 1.0 mg/ml, or 5.0 mg/ml). Concurrently, four interproximal defects were treated with a well accepted commercially available graft (anorganic bovine bone in collagen, ABB-C) and a bilayer collagen membrane. Radiographs, clinical probing depths, and attachment levels were obtained preoperatively (at baseline) and 9 months later. At 9 months postoperatively, the study tooth and surrounding tissues were removed en bloc. Clinical and radiographic data were analyzed for change from baseline by defect type and PDGF concentration. The histologic specimens were analyzed for the presence of regeneration of a complete new attachment apparatus coronal to the reference notch. RESULTS The post-surgical wound rapidly healed and was characterized by firm, pink gingivae within 7 to 10 days of surgery. There were no unfavorable tissue reactions or other safety concerns associated with the treatments throughout the course of the study. In rhPDGF/allograft sites, the vertical probing depth (vPD) reduction for interproximal defects was 6.42 +/- 1.69 mm (mean +/- SD) and clinical attachment level (CAL) gain was 6.17 +/- 1.94 mm (both P < 0.01). Radiographic fill was 2.14 +/- 0.85 mm. Sites filled with ABB-C had a PD reduction and CAL gain of 5.75 +/- 0.5 and 5.25 +/- 1.71, respectively. Furcation defects treated with rhPDGF/allograft exhibited a mean horizontal and vertical PD reduction of 3.40 +/- 0.55 mm (P < 0.001) and 4.00 +/- 1.58 mm (P < 0.005), respectively. The CAL gain for furcation defects was 3.2 +/- 2.17 mm (P < 0.030). Histologic evaluation revealed regeneration of a complete periodontal attachment apparatus, including new cementum, PDL, and bone coronal to the root notch in four of the six interproximal defects and all evaluable (four of four) furcation defects treated with PDGF. Two of the four interproximal intrabony defects treated with ABB-C and membrane exhibited regeneration. CONCLUSIONS Use of purified rhPDGF-BB mixed with bone allograft results in robust periodontal regeneration in both Class II furcations and interproximal intrabony defects. This is the first report of periodontal regeneration demonstrated histologically in human Class II furcation defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The primary aim of this 9-month randomized, controlled, blinded, clinical reentry study was to compare the regenerative effects of a nonporous polytetrafluoroethylene (NP) periodontal membrane to a porous expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (P) periodontal membrane in the treatment of vertical osseous defects. METHODS Twenty-four patients, 11 males and 13 females, age 24 to 74 (mean 50.5 +/- 13.1) provided one site with an intraosseous defect > or = 4 mm and were divided equally and randomly into two groups. Following debridement both groups were grafted with a bovine-derived xenograft coated with a synthetic cell-binding peptide; then the test group received an NP membrane and the control group received a P membrane. All defects were reentered after 9 months. Measurements were performed by a masked examiner. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences (P>0.05) between NP and P groups for any open or closed probing measurement at any time. Similar open initial defect depth for the NP group and P groups (4.8 versus 5.0 mm) demonstrated identical 9-month defect fill of 2.8 mm (57%) for both groups. A difference in crestal resorption for the NP compared to the P group (0.4 versus 0.8 mm) accounted for the difference in mean percent defect resolution, which was 67% for NP compared to 72% for the P group. Overall, nine (75%) of the NP group defects and eight (67%) of the P group defects showed more than 50% defect fill. CONCLUSION Treatment of vertical osseous defects with nonporous or porous polytetrafluoroethylene membranes in combination with a xenograft resulted in statistically significant improvement in open and closed probing measurements, with no significant difference between treatment groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The study of regenerative therapy in the periodontal intrabony defect has relied upon surgical re-entry as the gold standard of outcome assessment. The search for a non-invasive method has led to the application of various radiographic techniques in evaluating post-treatment bone fill. METHODS The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of 2 forms of radiographic analyses (linear measurement and computer assisted densitometric image analysis, CADIA) to assess postsurgical bone fill as measured at a re-entry procedure. A method that incorporates linear measurements and CADIA (linear-CADIA) was developed and tested as well. Forty-five intrabony defects in 15 patients were treated with open flap debridement, demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA), or a combination of DFDBA and tetracycline. Standardized radiographs were obtained at baseline and at 1-year postsurgery. RESULTS A 12-month surgical re-entry provided clinical measurements for post-treatment bone fill. All radiographs were digitally scanned and analyzed on a computer. Fifty-three percent of the defects were excluded from the study due to poor standardization or poor defect quality. Forty percent of all pairs of radiographs were judged to have poor standardization. In the first analysis, standardized images were subtracted and quantitatively analyzed utilizing CADIA. It was found that CADIA had the highest correlation with clinical bone fill when a region of interest (ROI) was examined in the middle portion of the defect. This quantitative evaluation provided very little clinically relevant information regarding actual bone fill. For the second analysis, pre- and post-treatment linear radiographic measurements were obtained. In only 43% of the sites, did linear radiographic measurements determine post-treatment bone fill within 1.0 mm of the clinical measurements. Overall, linear measurements underestimated bone fill by 0.96 mm (+/-1.2). These differences were statistically significant (paired Student t-test, P = 0.0023). A method, which incorporates the use of both CADIA and linear radiographic measurements (linear-CADIA), was tested. The linear-CADIA method underestimated bone fill by 0.26 mm (+/-1.4), but these differences were not statistically significant (paired Student t-test, P = 0.41). CONCLUSION Linear radiographic measurements significantly underestimate post-treatment bone fill when compared to re-entry data. The linear-CADIA method provided the highest level of accuracy of the 3 methods tested. This study also emphasizes the importance of developing a consistent method of radiographic standardization.

Abstract
THIS RANDOMIZED, CONTROLLED, CLINICAL STUDY was designed to evaluate outcome following surgical implantation of an allogeneic, freeze-dried, demineralized bone matrix-calcium sulfate (DBM+CS) composite with a CS barrier in intrabony periodontal defects. Twenty-six patients contributing 26 deep intrabony defects completed the study. Thirteen patients received the DBM+CS implant. Thirteen patients received gingival flap surgery alone (GFS; control). Clinical outcome was assessed at 6 and 12 months postsurgery. At 12 months postsurgery, probing depth (PD) reduction (mean +/-SD) for the DBM+CS and GFS group was to 4.3+/-0.5 and 3.0+/-1.3 mm; clinical attachment gain was to 2.9+/-0.8 and 1.7+/-1.5 mm; and probing bone level gain was to 2.9+/-1.4 and 1.2+/-1.2 mm, respectively. There were no apparent differences between evaluations at 6 and 12 months postsurgery. Clinical improvements were significantly different from presurgery for both groups at both observation intervals (P < 0.01). There were no significant differences between groups in PD reduction and clinical attachment gain. Probing bone level gain was significantly greater in the DBM+CS group compared to controls (P < 0.05). In summary, surgical implantation of DBM+CS with a CS barrier resulted in reduced PD and improved attachment levels comparable to that achieved by gingival flap surgery alone. However, gain in probing bone levels in deep intrabony periodontal pockets assessed by clinical parameters was greater than that observed by gingival flap surgery alone. These changes were noted at both 6 and 12 months after surgery. This regenerative technique needs further biologic evaluation before being generally accepted.
