Bone Substitutes

open access: yes, 2011
In daily clinical practise we frequently encounter situations in which the bone volume is insufficient for an ideal dental implant placement. Bone regeneration can provide the structural support necessary in these cases. Procedures such as sinus lifting and alveolar ridge augmentation have reached high levels of predictability and already are of major ...

Mechanistic Illustration: How Newly-Formed Blood Vessels Stopped by the Mineral Blocks of Bone Substitutes Can Be Avoided by Using Innovative Combined Therapeutics

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
One major limitation for the vascularization of bone substitutes used for filling is the presence of mineral blocks. The newly-formed blood vessels are stopped or have to circumvent the mineral blocks, resulting in inefficient delivery of oxygen and ...

Osteoconductive Microarchitecture of Bone Substitutes for Bone Regeneration Revisited

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
In the last three decades, all efforts in bone tissue engineering were driven by the dogma that the ideal pore size in bone substitutes lies between 0.3 and 0.5 mm in diameter.

Comparison of efficacies of different bone substitutes adhered to osteoblasts with and without extracellular matrix proteins

open access: yesJournal of Dental Sciences, 2013
Background/purpose: Regeneration of bony tissue is a major goal in periodontal and implant surgery. The adhesion efficacy of osteogenic cells to bone substitutes is a determinant for osteogenesis.

Spinal fusions: bone and bone substitutes [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Spine Journal, 2000
Vertebral arthrodesis is one of the most commonly performed, yet incompletely understood, procedures in spinal surgery. Despite major progress in internal fixation techniques, the high rate of nonunions indicates that physiologic, biologic and molecular events that are crucial to this process are not well known.
