The effect of different membranes on onlay bone graft success in the dog mandible

Healing of onlay mandibular bone grafts covered with collagen membrane or bovine bone substitutes: A microscopical and immunohistochemical study in the sheep

“…These include mechanical graft stabilization, prevention of bacterial infection, maintenance of space beneath the barrier membrane, and separation of the osteogenic cells from the competing nonosteogenic cells 1,[12][13][14][15][16] . Several other factors such as barrier stability, size of barrier perforations, peripheral sealing between barrier and bone, and blood supply have also been pointed out to be critical for a successful outcome.…”

“…Various techniques have been suggested to augment the residual ridge and prepare the site for implant installation 3,41 . One of the most important goals of bone graft augmentation is achieving and preserving the graft's bulk and form 12 . Autogenous bone grafts are considered the 'gold standard' in bone tissue replacement because they are immunologically inert and osteogenic 5,28 .…”

“…Several methods have been employed to enhance incorporation, and reduce resorption of autogenous graft. These include the guided tissue regeneration (GTR) technique, addition of bone substitute materials to the graft, rigid fixation of the graft and inhibition of osteoclastic activities 1,3,[12][13][14][15][16]34,39,40,42 .…”

Assessment of bovine biomaterials containing bone morphogenetic proteins bound to absorbable hydroxyapatite in rabbit segmental bone defects

“…The results showed that its presence was not seen histologically at 30 days after surgery in both treatments. Collagen membrane has shown satisfactory results in dentistry 25,26 and in treatment of nonsegmental defects experimentally produced in flat bones of several laboratory animals 18,28 . Despite that, in segmental defects, there is a need for better controlled studies to establish the membrane influence in bone formation.…”

Reparação ao redor de implantes de titânio após regeneração óssea guiada com membrana reabsorvível

“…A irrigação do enxerto, proveniente do leito receptor, faz-se necessária (Dongieux et al, 1998), como também pode-se sugerir a participação de células do periósteo no início do processo de formação e remodelação óssea.…”
