In this research 2 sample compounds are made and analyzed in terms of the in vivo and in vitro effects on the ovariectomized rats. The 2 compounds are prescribed based on pathologic patterns of osteoporosis, and added calcium citrate from tuna bone powder. SG is for menopausal women(Type I osteoporosis) and GN is for senile men(Type II osteoporosis). Through these, SG manifested Significant effects on the T4, osteocalcin level, and through the histological changes of osteoid tissues and lipocytes. On the other hand GN showed significant increase on the biochemical markers of osteocalcin, TALP, even in histological features and bone mineral density and intensity of femur it showed meaningful changes. But In the results of RT-PCR on the IL-1β, IL-6, TNF α, there weren't coherent results with in vivo test, that is they were increased in the sample compound group than control group. These increase of bone resorption was seemed that those cytokines had the osteoclasts promote their own resorptive functions after fragments of bone tissues were increased in the cavity. And this clearance of inner fragments help the bone to strengthen its own substance. Putting together above facts, the sample compounds, SG and GN, made of tuna bone powder and herbal solutions are predicted that there would be pharmacological actions improving the osteoporosis initiated from the disorders of calcic absorption and increase of bone resorption. And GN has more effective actions than SG at least in the animal model.

The purpose of this study was to observe the effect of ${\beta}GP$ in the remaining dental pulp tissue after pulpotomy in the dogs' teeth. For vital pulpotomy, 72 dogs' teeth were used and class V cavities were prepared and the pulps were amputated. ZOE and Dycal (Caulk Co., USA) were placed over the amputated tissue and cavities were sealed with ZOE cement in the control group. In the experimental group, ${\beta}GP$, ${\beta}GP$-ZOE, ${\beta}GP$-Dycal were placed over the exposed pulp tissues respectively. Dogs were sacrificed after 1, 2 and 4 weeks following the operations and the teeth were decalcified in the nitric acid, sectioned and stained with HE for light microscopic examination. For electron microscopic examination, specimens were made after 2 and 4 weeks following the operation. A comparative microscopic examination revealed as follows. 1. The dentin bridge was formed continuously due to osteodentin in the ${\beta}GP$-Dycal group at the 2nd week, the dentin bridge composed of osteodentin and tubular dentin was observed at the 4th week. 2. Osteodentin formation was vigorously in the ${\beta}GP$-Dycal than in the Dycal group. 3. In the surface of osteodentin the osteodentinoblasts showing vivid synthetic activity were observed and the matrix vesicles were presented during calcification of osteoid dentin matrix. 4. The dentin bridge formation was not observed in ${\beta}GP$ group and ${\beta}GP$-ZOE group.

The purpose of this stuffy was to assess and compare the osseous responses to implanted particles of porous synthetic HA (Interpore $200^{(R)}$, Interpore International, U.S.A.), resorbable natural bovine derived HA (Bio-$oss^{(R)}$, Gestlich Pharma, Switzerland) and calcium carbonate(Biocoral $450^{(R)}$, Inoteb, France) in bone defects. Four calvarial defects of 2.5mm diameter were created in earth of 16 Sprague-Dawley rats. The experimental materials were subsequently implanted hi three defects, leaving the fourth defect for control purpose. Four animals were earth sacrificed at 3 days, 1week, 2weeks and 4 weeks after surgery. The tissue response was evaluated under light microscope. Overall, histologic responses showed that all the particles were well tolerated and caused no aberrent tissue responses. There were difference in the amount of newly formed bone at the experimental sites and control site. There was more new bone formation associated with calcium carbonate site. In addition, the calcium carbonate site displayed multinucleated giant cells surrounding calcium carbonate particles after the 1st week, and osteoid tissue within the particle after the 2nd week. After 4 weeks, calcium carbonate particles were resorbed and replaced with new bone. The healing of the natural bovine derived HA site was similar to that of porous synthetic HA, except that new bone growth between the two particles have progressed more in the former site after the 2nd week. In the natural bovine derived HA site, the particle was surrounded by newly formed bone after the 4th week. After 4 weeks, the control site showed more mature bone than other sites. In conclusion, the grafted site were better in new bone formation than non-grafted sites. In particular the calcium Carbonate site showed the ability of osteoinduction and natural bovine denver HA showed osteoconduction in rat calvarial defects. This suggest that calcium carbonate and natural bovine derived HA could enhance the regenerative potential in periodontal defects.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate the effectiveness of newly developed autogenous tooth bone graft material (AutoBT)application for sinus bone graft procedure. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The patients with less than 5.0 mm of residual bone height in maxillary posterior area were enrolled. For the sinus bone graft procedure, Bio-Oss was grafted in control group and AutoBT powder was grafted in experimental group. Clinical and radiographic examination were done for the comparison of grafted materials in sinus cavity between groups. At 4 months after sinus bone graft procedure, biopsy specimens were analyzed by microcomputed tomography and histomorphometric examination for the evaluation of healing state of bone graft site. RESULTS. In CT evaluation, there was no difference in bone density, bone height and sinus membrane thickness between groups. In microCT analysis, there was no difference in total bone volume, new bone volume, bone mineral density of new bone between groups. There was significant difference trabecular thickness ($0.07{\mu}m$ in Bio-Oss group Vs. $0.08{\mu}m$ in AutoBT group) (P=.006). In histomorphometric analysis, there was no difference in new bone formation, residual graft material, bone marrow space between groups. There was significant difference osteoid thickness ($8.35{\mu}m$ in Bio-Oss group Vs. $13.12{\mu}m$ in AutoBT group) (P=.025). CONCLUSION. AutoBT could be considered a viable alternative to the autogenous bone or other bone graft materials in sinus bone graft procedure.

Drug releasing porous poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone) (PCL)-chitosan matrices were fabricated for bone regenerative therapy. Porous matrices made of biodegradable polymers have been playing a crucial role as bone substitutes and as tissue-engineered scaffolds in bone regenerative therapy. The matrices provided mechanical support for the developing tissue and enhanced tissue formation by releasing active agent in controlled manner. Chitosan was employed to enhance hydrophilicity and biocompatibility of the PCL matrices. PDGF-BB was incorporated into PCL-chitosan matrices to induce enhanced bone regeneration efficacy. PCL-chitosan matrices retained a porous structure with a 100-200 $\mu$m pore diameter that was suitable for cellular migration and osteoid ingrowth. $NaHCO_3$ as a porogen was incorporated 5% ratio to polymer weight to form highly porous scaffolds. PDGF-BB was released from PCL-chitosan matrices maintaining therapeutic concentration for 4 week. High osteoblasts attachment level and proliferation was observed from PCL-chitosan matrices. Scanning electron microscopic examination indicated that cultured osteoblasts showed round form and spread pseudopods after 1 day and showed broad cytoplasmic extension after 14 days. PCL-chitosan matrices promoted bone regeneration and PDGF-BB loaded matrices obtained enhanced bone formation in rat calvarial defect. These results suggested that the PDGF-BB releasing PCL-chitosan porous matrices may be potentially used as tissue engineering scaffolds or bone substitutes with high bone regenerative efficacy.

Current acceptable methods of promoting periodontal regeneration are basis of removal of diseased soft tissue, root treatment, guided tissue regeneration, graft materials, biological mediators. Platelet Rich Plasma have been reported as a biological mediator which regulate activities of wound healing progress including cell proliferation, migration, and metabolism. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possibility of using the Platelet Rich Plasma as a regeneration promoting agent for furcation involvement defect. Five adult beagle dogs were used in this experiment. With intrasulcular and crestal incision, mucoperiosteal flap was elevated. Following decortication with 1/2 high speed round bur, degree II furcation defect was made on mandibular third(P3), forth(P4) and fifth(P5) premolar. 2 month later experimental group were PRP plus bovine bone and bovine bone only. After 4, 8 weeks, the animals were sacrificed by perfusion technique. Tissue block was excised including the tooth and prepared for light microscope with Gomori's trichrome staining. At 4 weeks after surgery, there were rapid osteogenesis phenomenon on the defected area of the Platelet Rich Plasma plus bovine bone group and early trabeculation pattern was made with new osteoid tissue produced by activated osteoblast. Bone formation was almost completed to the fornix of furcation by 4 weeks after surgery. In conclusion, Platelet Rich Plasma can promote rapid osteogenesis during early stage of periodontal tissue regeneration.

Purpose : This study was performed to evaluate the diagnostic ability of ultrasonography in detection of bone defects and new bone formation. Materials and Methods : Experimental bony defects were prepared on the parietal bone samples acquired from 3.5 kg New Zealand male rabbits. The defects were evaluated using ultrasonography and CBCT, and examined histologically at interval of 1, 3, 6, and 8 weeks. Results : Ultrasonograph demonstrated hyperechogenicity in the defect area at 3 weeks and broadened hyperechogenicity from the margin of bone defect at 6 and 8 weeks due to new bone formation. On the CBCT images, new bone formation was first observed at 3 weeks around the margin of the defect, and showed gradually increase at 6 and 8 weeks. Histologic findings revealed existence of the fibroblasts and fibrous connective tissue with abundant capillary vessels only at 1 week, but osteoid tissue and newly formed trabecular bone at 3 weeks. Bone remodeling in the defect area was observed at 6 weeks and increased calcification and dense trabecular bone formation was observed at 8 weeks. Conclusions : Ultrasonograph proved to be a very useful diagnostic tool in detecting the bony defect and new bone formation. Additionally, ultrasonography provided valuable information regarding the blood supply around the defect area.

Introduction: Fibrous-osseous lesions of the jaws are difficult to diagnose precisely until excised biopsy results are found, so they might be confused with malignant lesions. This clinical study focused on the diagnostic aids of lesions that demonstrate different clinical, radiologic, and histological findings. Materials and Methods: A total of 16 patients with benign fibrous-osseous lesions on the jaws (6 fibrous dysplasias, 6 ossifying fibromas, 3 cemental dysplasias, and one osteoblastoma) were reviewed. Nine patients with malignant fibrous-osseous lesions (8 osteosarcomas and one Ewing's sarcoma) were also retrospectively reviewed. Results: Osteosarcoma patients complained of facial swelling and tooth mobility. The radiographic findings showed the irregular resorption of cortical bone and periosteal reactions. Histological features included cellular pleomorphism and atypical mitosis. An Ewing's sarcoma patient complained of tooth mobility and facial swelling. Onion-skin appearance and irregular expansile marginal bony radiolucency were seen in the radiography. Fibrous dysplasia patients complained of facial swelling and asymmetry. The radiographic features were mostly ground-glass radiopacity. Histological findings showed a bony trabeculae pattern surrounded by fibrous ground substances. Ossifying fibroma patients complained of buccal swelling and jaw pains, showing expanded cortical radiolucent lesions with a radiopaque margin. Histological findings were revealed as cellular fibrous stroma with immature woven bones. In cemental dysplasia, most of their lesions were found in a routine dental exam. Well-circumscribed radiopaque lesions were observed in the radiography, and cementum-like ossicles with fibrous stroma were seen in the microscopy. An osteoblastoma patient complained of jaw pain and facial swelling. Radiographic findings were mottled, dense radiopacity with osteolytic margin. Trabeculae of the osteoid with a vascular network and numerous osteoblasts with woven bone were predominantly found in the microscopy. Conclusion: Our study showed similar results as other studies. We suggest the clinical parameters of diagnosis and treatment for malignant and benign fibrous-osseous lesions of the jaws.

To repair bony defects with tansplanted bone in the body, fresh autogenous bone is undoubtly, the most effective bone graft for clinical applications. But the demineralized bone has the matrix-induced bone formation which was suggested by Urist in 1965. Many authors assisted that demineralized bone powder induces phenotypic conversion of mesenchymal cells into osteoblasts, with high-density bone formation. The process of inducing differentiated cells becomes osteogenic properties. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the osteoinductive capacity of allogenic freeze-dried demineralized bone block (FDD, $7{\times}7mm$) and to compare FDD with the same sue of deep-frozen allogenic bone(DF), fresh autogenous bone (A) after implantation. The histological and ultrastructural features of tissue responses were examined after 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 weeks implantation of each experimental groups in the operative site of the New Zealand white rabbits. The results were as follows : 1. Inflammatory cell infiltration generally has appeared at 1 week, but reduced at 4 weeks in each group, but most severe in DF group. 2. Osteoblastic activity has increased for 4 weeks, but decreased at 6 weeks in each group and there was no significant difference among experimental groups. 3. New bone formation has begun at 1week, least activations in A groups, and showed the revesal line of bone formation among each group at 6 to 8 weeks. 4. Bone resorption has appeared at 1 week, but disappeared at 4 weeks in both A and DF groups, but more severe in DF than A groups. 5. In ultrastructural changs, the DF group have showed the most remarkable osteoclastic activities among experimental groups. 6. Osteoid or tangled collagen fibrils near the implanted sites were replaced by more mature, lamellated bony trabeculae during bone remodeling. There was little difference among each experimental groups. 7. During the convertion osteoblasts to osteocytes which embedded within the bone matrix, there was organ-less-poor cytoplasm, increased nuclear chromatin, abundant rough endothelial reticulum (RER) in each groups. From the above the findings, the DF group shored more bone resorption and foreign body reaction than FDD and A groups, and FDD group showed more new bone formation or osteoblastic activity than DF and A groups in early stage. There was no significant difference of cellular activities among the FDD DF, and A groups according to the time.

Purpose: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the long term bone healing after horizontal ridge augmentation using auto block bone graft for implant installation timing. Materials and Methods: Five Beagle dogs(which were 14 months old and weighted approximately 10kg). In surgery 1(extraction & bone defect), premolars(P2, P3,P4) were extracted and the buccal bone plate was removed to create a horizontally defected ridge. After three months healing, in surgery 2(ridge augmentation). Auto block bone grafts from the mandibular ramus were used in filling the bone defects were fixed with stabilizing screws. The following fluorochrome labels were given intravenously to the beagle dogs: oxytetracycline 1week after the surgery, alizarin red 4 weeks after the surgery, calcein blue 8 weeks after the surgery. The tissue samples were obtained from the sacrificed dogs of 1, 4, 8, 12, 16 weeks after the surgery. Non-decalcified sections were prepared by resin embedding and microsection to find thickness of $10{\mu}m$ for the histologic examination and analysis. Results: 1. We could achieve the successful reconstruction of the horizontal bone defect by auto block bone graft. The grafted bone block remained stable morohologically after 16 weeks of the surgery. 2. In the histologic view. We observed osteoid tissue from the sample $4^{th}$ week sample and active capillary reconstruction in the grafted bone from the $12^{th}$ week sample. Healing procedures of auto bone grafts were compared to that of the host bone. 3. Bone mineralization could be detected from the $8^{th}$ week sample. 4. Fluorochrome labeling showed active bony changes and formation at the interface of the host bone and the block graft mainly. Bony activation in the grafted bone could be seen from the $4^{th}$ week samples. Conclusions: Active bone formation and remodeling between the grafted bone and host bone can be seen through the revascularization. After the perfect adhesion to host bone, Timing of successful implant installation can be detected through the ideal ridge formation by horizontal ridge augmentation.
