The success or failure of endosseous dental implants is related to the cellular activity at the implant surface. Success seems to be associated with the enclosure of the implant in a non-inflammed connective tissue or the formation of a direct bone implant interface. The purpose of this study was to examine the tissue reactions to the various implants at the submergible state in dog mandible. The $Br\"{a}nemark$, Core-Vent, Intergral, Bone spiral were selected for evaluation and also the Kimplant, Nephrite were used for the experimental study. After 4 months the animals were sacrificed. The interface zone between bone and implant was investigated using x-rays, light microscope, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope. The following results were obtained from this study. 1. $Br\"{a}nemark$, Core-Vent, Kimplant, Integral showed no mobility and bone growth over the healing screws of the implants. Histologically most of the implant surface were covered by remodelled lamellar bone, and partly by a cellular layer or the thin fibrous tissue layer. 2. The Bone spiral showed no mobility and partially radiolucent line around the implant. The upper part of the implant was surrounded by a thin fibrous connective tissue and the middle, apical part of it were contacted with bone directly. 3. The Nephrite implant showed severe mobility and a radiolucent line around the implant. Histologically it showed mild inflammation and was surrounded by a fibrous connective tissue. 4. Scanning electron microscope showed that there was no amorphous ground substance in the Nephrite implant but the formation of ground substance over the collagen filaments in other implants. 5. Transmission electron microscope showed that collagen filaments were approached irregularly to the surface of all implants and in the $Br\"{a}nemark$, Core-Vent, Kimplant, Integral there was amorphous layer between the implant and the collagen filaments. It seemed to be ground substances.

Purpose: Significant interest has emerged in the design of cell scaffolds that incorporate peptide sequences that correspond to known signaling domains in extracellular matrix and bone morphogenetic protein. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bone regenerative effects of the synthetic peptide in a critical-size rat calvarial defect model. Methods: Eight millimeter diameter standardized, circular, transosseus defects created on the cranium of forty rats were implanted with synthetic peptide, collagen, or both synthetic peptide and collagen. No material was was implanted the control group. The healing of each group was evaluated histologically and histomorphometrically after 2- and 8-week healing intervals. Results: Surgical implantation of the synthetic peptide and collagen resulted in enhanced local bone formation at both 2 and 8 weeks compared to the control group. When the experimental groups were compared to each other, they showed a similar pattern of bone formation. The defect closure and new bone area were significantly different in synthetic peptide and collagen group at 8 weeks. Conclusions: Concerning the advantages of biomaterials, synthetic peptide can be an effective biomaterial for damaged periodontal regeneration.

This paper reports the morphological nature of the remodelled interface process between implants and surrounding bone after 1, 4, 6, 8 and 12 weeks of implantation of smooth machined implants into rat tibias. After 4 weeks of implantation, histochemical analysis showed that the new bone was growing in direct contact with the implant. In the forming process, the activatived osteoblast cells migrated toward the interface and colonized the surface at the contact areas. This immature woven bone, rich in osteocyte lacunae, was deposited directly onto the implant surface. Osteoblast activity was found to continue ill 12 weeks of implantation The osteoblasts in lacunar areas developed numerous processes and synthesized bone matrix, after all, surrounded by secreting matrix. At the 12th week, the amount of newly formed bone matrix between bone and implant increased in mineralization. The mineralized mature bone contained well organized collagen fibers with characteristic banding pattern bone tissue formation around the implant.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the clinical feasibility of using dehydrothermally cross-linked collagen membrane (DCM) for bone regeneration around peri-implant dehiscence defects, and compare it with non-cross-linked native collagen membrane (NCM). Methods: Dehiscence defects were investigated in twenty-eight patients. Defect width and height were measured by periodontal probe immediately following implant placement (baseline) and 16 weeks afterward. Membrane manipulation and maintenance were clinically assessed by means of the visual analogue scale score at baseline. Changes in horizontal thickness at 1 mm, 2 mm, and 3 mm below the top of the implant platform and the average bone density were assessed by cone-beam computed tomography at 16 weeks. Degradation of membrane was histologically observed in the soft tissue around the implant prior to re-entry surgery. Results: Five defect sites (two sites in the NCM group and three sites in the DCM group) showed soft-tissue dehiscence defects and membrane exposure during the early healing period, but there were no symptoms or signs of severe complications during the experimental postoperative period. Significant clinical and radiological improvements were found in all parameters with both types of collagen membrane. Partially resorbed membrane leaflets were only observed histologically in the DCM group. Conclusions: These findings suggest that, compared with NCM, DCM has a similar clinical expediency and possesses more stable maintenance properties. Therefore, it could be used effectively in guided bone regeneration around dehiscence-type defects.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of (1) the size of the bony access window and (2) collagen membrane coverage over the window in sinus floor elevation in a rabbit sinus model. Methods: Small bony access windows (SW; ø 2.8 mm) were made in 6 rabbits and large windows (LW; ø 6 mm) in 6 other rabbits. Both sinuses in each rabbit were allocated to groups with or without coverage of a collagen membrane (CM) on the window, resulting in 4 groups: SW, LW, SW+CM, and LW+CM. After 4 weeks of healing, micro-computed tomographic, histologic, and histomorphometric analyses were performed. Results: Bony healing in the window area was incomplete in all groups, but most bone graft particles were well confined in the augmented cavity. Histologically, the pattern of new bone formation was similar in all groups. Histomorphometrically, the percentage of newly formed bone was greater in the groups with CM than in the groups without CM, and in the groups with SW than in the groups with LW (12.92%±6.40% in the SW+CM group, 4.21%±7.73% in the SW group, 10.45%±4.81% in the LW+CM group, 11.77%±3.83% in the LW group). The above differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusions: The combination of a small bony access window and the use of a collagen membrane over the window favored new bone formation compared to other groups, but this result should be further investigated due to the limitations of the present animal model.

The aim of this study was to achieve healing of Peri-implantitis defects and hard tissue augmentation using a bovine-derived bone mineral on the defect site. Two patients were treated with the surgical approach. With a full muco-periosteal flap elevation, the implant surfaces were exposed and granulation tissue removed around the implant and between the threads. Each surface of the contaminated implant was prepared with the air-abrasive device(PerioFlow$^{(R)}$) for decontamination. Bovine-derived bone mineral(Bio-Oss collagen$^{(R)}$) was then used to fill the defects and muco-periosteal flaps sutured to achieve transmucosal healing. Radiographs and clinical photographs were taken before and after 6 months of healing and an estimate of bone fill was assessed. Within the limits of the present case report, a surgical approach in treatment of peri-implantitis defects using a collagen form of bovine bone mineral was visited. Although limited, the two cases showed the stability and biocompatibility of a bovine-derived bone mineral and effectiveness of air-abrasive device(PerioFlow$^{(R)}$) as a decontamination method.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of collagen matrix with apically positioned flap (APF) on the width of keratinized gingiva, comparing to the results of APF only and APF combined with free gingival graft (FGG) at the second implant surgery. Methods: Nine patients were selected from those who had received treatments at the Department of Periodontics, Chosun University Dental Hospital, Gwangju, Korea. We performed APF, APF combined with FGG, and APF combined with collagen matrix coverage respectively. Clinical evaluation of keratinized gingival was performed by measuring the distance from the gingival crest to the mucogingival junction at the mid-buccal point, using a periodontal probe before and after the surgery. Results: The ratio of an increase was 0.3, 0.6, and 0.6 for the three subjects in the APF cases, 3, 5, and 7 for the three in the APF combined with FGG case, and 1.5, 0.5, and 3 for the three in the APF combined with collagen matrix coverage case. Conclusions: This study suggests that the collagen matrix when used as a soft tissue substitute with the aim of increasing the width of keratinized tissue or mucosa, was as effective and predictable as the FGG.

Purpose: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the healing of post-extraction sockets following alveolar ridge preservation clinically, radiologically, and histologically. Methods: Overall, 7 extraction sockets in 7 patients were grafted with demineralised bovine bone mineral and covered with a porcine-derived non-crosslinked collagen matrix (CM). Soft tissue healing was clinically evaluated on the basis of a specific healing index. Horizontal and vertical ridge dimensional changes were assessed clinically and radiographically at baseline and 6 months after implant placement. For histological and histomorphometric analysis, bone biopsies were harvested from the augmented sites during implant surgery 6 months after the socket preservation procedure. Results: Clinically, healing proceeded uneventfully in all the sockets. A trend towards reduced horizontal and vertical socket dimensions was observed from baseline to the final examination. The mean width and height of resorption were 1.21 mm (P=0.005) and 0.46 mm (P=0.004), respectively. Histologically, residual xenograft particles ($31.97%{\pm}3.52%$) were surrounded by either newly formed bone ($16.02%{\pm}7.06%$) or connective tissue ($50.67%{\pm}8.42%$) without fibrous encapsulation. The CM underwent a physiological substitution process in favour of well-vascularised collagen-rich connective tissue. Conclusions: Socket preservation using demineralised bovine bone mineral in combination with CM provided stable dimensional changes of the alveolar ridge associated with good reepithelialisation of the soft tissues during a 6-month healing period.

Purpose: The significance of keratinized tissue for peri-implant health has been emphasized. However, there is an absence of clinical evidence for the use of a xenogeneic collagen matrix (XCM) to manage peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate outcomes after keratinized tissue augmentation using an XCM for the management of peri-implant diseases. Methods: Twelve implants (5 with peri-implant mucositis and 7 with peri-implantitis) in 10 patients were included in this study. Non-surgical treatments were first performed, but inflammation persisted in all implant sites. The implant sites all showed a lack of keratinized mucosa (KM) and vestibular depth (VD). Apically positioned flaps with XCM application were performed. Bone augmentation was simultaneously performed on peri-implantitis sites with an intrabony defect (>3 mm). The following clinical parameters were measured: the probing pocket depth (PPD), modified sulcular bleeding index (mSBI), suppuration (SUP), keratinized mucosal height (KMH), and VD. Results: There were no adverse healing events during the follow-up visits (18±4.6 months). The final KMHs and VDs were 4.34±0.86 mm and 8.0±4.05 mm, respectively, for the sites with peri-implant mucositis and 3.29±0.86 mm and 6.5±1.91 mm, respectively, for the sites with peri-implantitis. Additionally, the PPD and mSBI significantly decreased, and none of the implants presented with SUP. Conclusions: Keratinized tissue augmentation using an XCM for sites with peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis was effective for increasing the KMH and VD and decreasing peri-implant inflammation.
