Evaluation of Durapatite Ceramic as an Alloplastic Implant in Periodontal Osseous Defects: I. Initial Six‐Month Results

open access: closedJournal of Periodontology, 1981
Eight patients received a new polycrystalline ceramic form of pure hydroxylapatite (Durapatite) as a bone implant material in various types of infrabony defects following internally beveled full thickness flaps, root planing, and defect debridement.

Repair of Anterior Gingival Deformity with Durapatite

open access: closedJournal of Periodontology, 1985
After the extraction of a maxillary anterior tooth, a gingival deformity may occur due to the loss of the labial plate of bone. This often creates an esthetic problem in the construction of a fixed partial denture. In the past, various surgical techniques have been devised to eliminate this gingival defect. A technique using durapatite is discussed.

Human Clinical and Histologic Responses to Durapatite Implants in Intraosseous Lesions: Case Reports

open access: closedJournal of Periodontology, 1982
The healing response following implantation of a nonresorbable ceramic (durapatite) into human periodontal osseous defects was evaluated clinically and histologically. Four toothcontaining blocks were obtained from four patients who had received durapatite implants in osseous defects, each exceeding 4 mm in depth.

Histological Assessment of Human Periodontal Defect After Durapatite Ceramic Implant: Report of a Case

open access: closedJournal of Periodontology, 1983
Durapatite particles were employed along with autogenous bone chips to treat an extensive periodontal defect on a mandibular first molar which involved the bifurcation area and the distal root. Nine weeks after treatment the tooth was found to be cracked and was extracted along with tissue containing the grafted sites.

Longitudinal Evaluation of Durapatite Ceramic as an Alloplastic Implant in Periodontal Osseous Defects after 3 Years

open access: closedJournal of Periodontology, 1984
Seven patients who participated in a clinical study comparing the response of periodontal osseous defects to either grafting with Durapatite ceramic or debridement alone were followed under an active maintenance program for 3 years. Comparison of mean values showed that gingival recession, attachment levels and probeable pocket depths remained ...
