Biomaterials with Antibacterial and Osteoinductive Properties to Repair Infected Bone Defects

Biomaterials with Antibacterial and Osteoinductive Properties to Repair Infected Bone Defects.

The repair of infected bone defects is still challenging in the fields of orthopedics, oral implantology and maxillofacial surgery. In these cases, the self-healing capacity of bone tissue can be significantly compromised by the large size of bone defects and the potential/active bacterial activity. Infected bone defects are conventionally treated by a systemic/local administration of antibioti...

Bone defects of the facial skeleton - replacement with biomaterials.

The authors report on their experience with bone defect treatment following surgery of jaw-bone cysts. This is based on the use of cadaveric ground spongiosis saturated with tetracycline and metronidazol solution. The study shows the above mentioned material is very suitable for bone defect therapy, and cost effective. The results were verified by clinical and X-ray examination.

Presentation of a novel model of chitosan- polyethylene oxide-nanohydroxyapatite nanofibers together with bone marrow stromal cells to repair and improve minor bone defects

Objective(s):Various methods for repairing bone defects are presented. Cell therapy is one of these methods. Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) seem to be suitable for this purpose. On the other hand, lots of biomaterials are used to improve and repair the defect in the body, so in this study we tried to produce a similar structure to the bone by the chitosan and hydroxyapatite. Materials and Me...

Comparative Osteoinductive Properties Clinical and Histological Evaluation of an Allogeneic Bone Matrix for the Treatment of Periodontal Osseous Defects

Evaluation of sticky bone efficacy to reconstruction of human jaw bone resorption and defects: case report

Background: One of the most significant factors in the success of dental implant procedures, can be mentioned by the quality and quantity of jaw bone. The occurrence of some problems such as trauma, infection, pathological lesions and the long-term absence of teeth in patients, it causes irregularities in the jaw bone and can get bone resorption. Sever defects after trauma or tumor resection ne...
