Platelet-rich plasma and resorbable membrane for prevention of periodontal defects after deeply impacted lower third molar extraction.

30 Oct 2009 PURPOSE: The extraction of deeply included third molars may cause multiple periodontal defects at the distal root of the second molar. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a material containing autologous growth factors, which may be used in repairing and ... Read more...

Effects of recombinant human erythropoietin on mandibular distraction osteogenesis.

30 Oct 2009 PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of subcutaneous administration of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) on regeneration formation and quality during mandibular distraction osteogenesis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixteen adult male New Zealand ... Read more...

Osterix enhances BMSC-associated osseointegration of implants.

30 Oct 2009 Cellular and molecular events in osseointegration at the dental implant surface remain largely unknown. We hypothesized that bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) participate in this process, and that osterix (Osx) promotes implant osseointegration. To ... Read more...
