A 3D printed TCP/HA structure as a new osteoconductive scaffold for vertical bone augmentation

Abstract: When compared to existing bone substitutes, OF enhances vertical bone growth during the first 2 months after implantation in a sheep calvarial model. The controlled porous structure translated in a high osteoconductivity and resulted in a bone mass 3 mm above the bony bed that was four times greater than that obtained with standard substitutes. These results are promising but must be confirmed in clinical tests.

“…Bai et al [54] and Lin et al [55] tested the combination of rhBMP-2 and VEGF, which seems to accelerate bone healing. Different carrier materials [2, 5, 34, 56, 57] have been examined but the ultimate carrier is yet to be found. ICBM itself has shown bone regenerative capacity in combination with embryonal stem cells [58, 59].…”

“…Bone tissue engineering aims to create new functional bone via synergistic therapy using three biological elements 1) (cells [2][3][4] , signaling molecules [5][6][7][8] , and natural and artificial scaffolds [9][10][11] ) in order to reverse bone loss caused by infectious disease [12][13][14][15] , trauma 16) , and cancer 17) or to augment host bone for dental implants 18,19) . Application of a three-dimensional (3D) scaffold to the bone defect produces a regenerative space for tissue reconstruction and stimulates cell proliferation and differentiation, along with angiogenesis and extracellular matrix secretion 20) .…”

“…Bone substitutes are used in order to fill, rebuild or replace bone defects (Carrel et al, 2014;Draenert, Huetzen, Neff, & Mueller, 2014). There is an intense search by the medical and dental fields for materials that can replace lost bone tissue with consequent anatomical and functional recovery of the tissue or organ.…”

“…There is an intense search by the medical and dental fields for materials that can replace lost bone tissue with consequent anatomical and functional recovery of the tissue or organ. Autogenous bone, despite being considered the gold standard for use in grafts, has limited use because it causes damage at the donor site and presents qualities related to age and general health of the individual, besides being exhaustible (Carrel et al, 2014).…”
