According to data from the Mexican Institute of Social Security (IMSS), traditional treatments for repairing defects in bone tissue are mostly the use of fixation devices and prostheses, however, although to a lesser extent bone substitutes are also used [1]. The objective of the grafts is to provide mechanical stability in the affected area, however, it is possible that there are problems due to inadequate osseointegration, therefore the mechanical stability sought in the bone tissue is not achieved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
