Purpose: This study evaluated the capability of bone formation of silk fibroin particles coated with hydroxyapatites (HA/SF), as bone graft material when put into the calvarial defect of rats. Methods: Twenty Sprague Dawley rats were used for this study and round shaped defects were formed in the center of parietal bones (diameter: 8.0 mm). The defect was filled with (1) HA/SF (experimental group), or (2) left as a vacant space (control group). The animals were sacrificed at 4 or 8 weeks, postoperatively. The specimens were decalcified and stained with Masson's trichrome for histomorphometric analysis. Results: The average of new bone formation was $33.18{\pm}3.10%$ in the experimental group and $20.49{\pm}5.79%$ in the control group at 4 weeks postoperatively. That was $42.52{\pm}7.74%$ in the experimental group and $25.50{\pm}7.31%$ in the control group at 8 weeks postoperatively. The difference between the groups was significantly higher at both 4 weeks and 8 weeks postoperatively (P<0.05). Conclusion: The rat calvarial defect was successfully repaired by HA/SF graft. The HA/SF graft showed more new bone formation compared with the unfilled control.

Objective: The aim is to evaluate the potential of the mesiodens through the comparative inorganic analysis of 3rd molar teeth prior to clinical study. Material and methods: The extracted mesiodens and the 3rd molar teeth were prepared. The teeth are prepared as in the process of the autogenous tooth bone graft. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was performed for inorganic analysis. Results: Rough and porous surfaces were observed in all materials in SEM analysis. Ca/P ratio of mesiodens was 1.55 and the 3rd molar was 1.22 in EDS analysis. XRD analysis shows that the 3 main peaks position were similar. This means that the graft materials are very similar to that of the crystallinity. Conclusions: The mesiodens and the 3rd molar teeth are very similar to the inorganic component. These results provide the reasonable rationale that mesiodens can be used as autogenous tooth bone graft in a clinic.

Immunomodulation is a technique for the modulation of immune responses against graft material to improve surgical success rates. The main target cell for the immunomodulation is a macrophage because it is the reaction site of the graft and controls the healing process. Macrophages can be classified into M1 and M2 types. Most immunomodulation techniques focus on the rapid differentiation of M2-type macrophage. An M2 inducer, 4-hexylresorcinol, has been recently identified and is used for bone grafts and dental implant coatings.

Pure-phase beta-tricalcium phosphate(${\beta}$-TCP) proved to be a bone regeneration material, providing the patient with vital bone at the defect site in a reasonable time, making a second surgical procedure for bone harvesting unnecessary. This study compares bone healing and BMP 2/4 expression in cranial defects in rabbits grafted with autogenous bone and ${\beta}$-TCP. Thirty New Zealand White rabbits was divided into 3 group of 10 animals each. Bilateral calvarial defects were made in the parietal bones of each animal. ${\beta}$-TCP placed in one defect and the other defects was filled with autogenous bone. The animal were sacrificed at 4, 8 and 12 weeks. Immunohistochemical analysis was used to investigate the expression of BMP 2/4. 1. The new bone formation around autogenous bone from 4 weeks and ${\beta}$-TCP from 8 weeks. 2. In autogenous bone graft, BMP 2/4 expression was decreased from 4 to 12 weeks. 3. In ${\beta}$-TCP graft, BMP 4 expression was increased from 8 to 12 weeks. But, BMP 2 was observed from 12 weeks. This study showed that bone healing, regeneration and, BMP 2/4 expression are delayed in grafted ${\beta}$-TCP than autogenous bone.

We investigated the effect of deep-freezed, boiled and autoclaved autogenous long bone graft on the incorporation of the radial diaphyseal reconstruction in 30 rabbits by radiogram and histology for 8 weeks. Immediate histologic changes of 1cm of resected long bone treated by deep freezing, boiling and autoclaving in each 2 rabbits were also observed as control. Resected, boiled ($95^{\circ}C$ for 5 min.) and reimplanted bone was compared with resected, autoclaved ($131^{\circ}C$ for 5 min.) and reimplanted bone, and resected, deep freezed with liquid nitrogen for 5 minutes and thawing in saline and reimplanted bone in the reconstruction of bilateral radial defects in each of 8, and in total 24 adult rabbits. The results were as follows : 1. Immediate histologic changes showed that intracortical osteocytes in lacunae were partially necrotized and the cortex were faintly stained with they Masson trichrome stain in both boiled and deep freezed groups, while they completely necrotized and their cortex stained more weakly with Masson trichrome stain in autoclaved group which means less amount of collagen and protein in cortex of long bone. 2. Radiographies at 8 weeks showed complete union with more marked incorporation and external callus formation in all boiled and freezed groups, whereas there was delayed union in four of sixteen (25%) in autoclaved group. Histologically, at 8 weeks after boiled and freezed, more intense incorporation with new bone formation and neovascularization were observed, whereas transverse clefts consisted with delayed union in 4 cases of autoclaved group (25%) were observed at osteotomy site. Through these studies, the boilod and deeply freezed bones acted as an osteoinductive material as well as osteoconductive, but the autoclaved bone only as osteoconductive. Though boilod and deeply freezed bone showed higher osteogenic potentials than autoclaved bone, the necrotizing effect on cortical and boiled bone was inferior to that of autoclaved. Thus the deeply freezed bone can be used for the treatment of aggressive benign or less malignant bone tumor not involving cortical bone, but the autoclaved bone supplemented with bone graft for the treatment of malignant bone tumor involving cortex of long bone.

This study sought to evaluate the effect of the type of grafts used in sinus lifting. A review of literature through MEDLINE search covering the period 1980 ~ 2006 was performed. After screening, this study was narrowed down to 2,452 patients receiving sinus lift grafts wherein 7,151 implants were placed. In this study, the types of grafts used in sinus augmentation were autogenous bone, allogenic bone, corticocancellous block bone, and various alloplastic materials. The success rate varied from 69% to 100% depending on the graft material type. The highest success rate was reported for the autogenous bone, with high success rates recorded for the most part in most studies.

Procurement, cutting, cleansing, freezing, freeze-drying, and demineralization of the allogeneic bone must be made under the germ-free stable condition without bacterial and/or viral contamination. Even thought the bone is procured under the germ free condition, we must have confidence on disinfection of all the solutions that come in contact with tissue during the whole procedure. Lots of antibacterial agents have been introduced for chemical sterilization. Recently ethylene oxide gas sterilization or radiation sterilization is frequently selected as a secendary sterilization procedure. The biological and biochemical response of the graft material differs with the type and concentration of the sterilizing agents, and various toxic reactions have been reported due to the graft material itself and the substance released by the chemicals. The authors conducted the Millipore filter test to observe the toxic effect on L929 fibroblasts according to the effect on activity of succinate dehydrogenase, during the secondary sterilization of the demineralized allogeneic bone powder with irradiation or ethylene oxide gas. The result were as follows : 1. Around the copper disk, positive control group, 10mm diameter discoloration was observed. 2. As same as the negative control group, the disk showed no discoloration. 3. The demineralized allogeneic bone which was sterilized with ethylene oxide gas or irradiation showed no cytotoxicity. 4. From this results, it is suggested that treatment with ethylene oxide gas or irradiation should be effective to sterilize the deminineralized allogeneic bone.

Periodontal surgery as part of the treatment of periodontal disease is mainly performed 1) to gain access to diseased areas for adequate cleaning; 2) to achieve pocket reduction or elimination; and 3) to restore the periodontal tissues lost through the disease; i.e., a new attachment formation of periodontal regeneration. To accomplish the latter, often referred to as the ultimate goal of periodontal therapy, a number of surgical procedures have been advocated throughout the years. Clinical studies have demonstrated that considerable gain of clinical attachment and bone can be achieved following guided tissue regeneration (GTR) therapy of intrabony defects. The aim of this study was to analyse the radiographic bone changes 2-year after GTR using a bone graft material and nonresorbable membrane. Patients attending the department of periodontics of Kyungpook National University Hospital were studied. Patients had clinical and radiographic evidence of intrabony defect(s), 33 sites of 30 patients aged 32 to 56 (mean age 45.6) were treated by GTR with a bone graft material and nonresorbable membrane. Baseline and 2-year follow-up radiographs were collected and evaluated for this study. Radiographic assessment includes a bone fill, bone crest change, defect resolution, and % of defect resolution. Pre- and post-treatment differences between variables (maxilla and mandible, defect depth, defect angle, bone graft materials) using the paired t-test were examined. We observed $2.86{\pm}1,87mm$ of bone fill, $065{\pm}0.79mm$ of crestal resorption, $3.49{\pm}2.11mm$ of defect resolution, and $44.42{\pm}19.51%$ of percentage of defect resolution. Mandible, deeper initial defect depth, narrower initial defect angle showed greater bone fill, defect resolution, and % of defect resolution. But no difference was observed between xenograft and allograft. Outcome of GTR as a therapy of intrabony defect was better than other therapy, but herein, good oral hygiene maintenance as a anti-infective treatment and periodic recall check of patients are essential.

Purpose: The role of hard-type crosslinked hyaluronic acid (HA) with particulate bone substitutes in bone regeneration for combined inlay-onlay grafts has not been fully investigated. We aimed to evaluate the effect of hard-type crosslinked HA used with bone substitute in terms of new bone formation and space maintenance. Methods: A 15-mm-diameter round defect was formed in the calvaria of 30 New Zealand White rabbits. All animals were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 groups: the control group (spontaneous healing without material, n=10), the biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) graft group (BCP, n=10), and the BCP graft with HA group (BCP/HA, n=10). The animals were evaluated 4 and 12 weeks after surgery. Half of the animals from each group were sacrificed at 4 and 12 weeks after surgery. Samples were evaluated using micro-computed tomography, histology, and histomorphometry. Results: The BCP group showed higher bone volume/tissue volume (BV/TV) values than the control and BCP/HA groups at both 4 and 12 weeks. The BCP and BCP/HA groups showed higher bone surface/tissue volume (BS/TV) values than the control group at both 4 and 12 weeks. The BCP group showed higher BS/TV values than the control and BCP/HA groups at both 4 and 12 weeks. No statistically significant difference in newly formed bone was found among the 3 groups at 4 weeks. The BCP group showed significantly higher new bone formation than the BCP/HA group at 12 weeks. Conclusions: Hard-type crosslinked HA did not show a positive effect on new bone formation and space maintenance. The negative effect of hard-type crosslinked HA may be due to the physical properties of HA that impede osteogenic potential.

A low molecular weight component named bone morphogenetic protein(BMP) chemically isolated from the organic matrix of bone, induce postfetal connective tissue cells surrounding small blood vessels to differentiate into cartilage and bone. The end product of BMP is a spherical ossicle of lamella bone filled with red bone marrow for the functional loading. This is a important point that the graft material is embedded the defect site during the implant surgery. Because present knowledge of the relationship between BMP and bone regeneration arises mainly from studies of induced bone formation in heterotopic sites, it would be helpful to determine whether BMP plays any part in the process of bone healing. The BMPs have been shown to play crucial roles in normal skeletal development as well as bone healing and are able to activate transcription of genes involved in cellular migration, proliferation, and differentiation. The delivery of BMP on matrices has been efficacious in the treatment of defect bone in implant surgery. The purpose of the histologic study was to evaluate the effect of DLB(demineralized lyophilized bone) coated with purified human BMP(hBMP-I) in immediate implant surgery with bony defect to obtain the functional structure of implant asap. The ability of a graft of hBMP-I to accelerate bony defect repair provides a rationale for its use in immediate implant surgery that have large bone defect in edentulous area.
