Osteogenic Ability According to the Decalcified Modality of Auto-Tooth Bone Grafts in Peri-Implant Defects in Dogs

초록

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bone generation capacity of the autotransplantation material with clinical and histological analyses after controlled acid treatment conditions. Material and Methods: Bony defects were formed in the femur. Then, autotransplantation material was grafted after hydroxyapatite-coated implant placement. Experimental groups were classified according to the acid treatment method: 2% H2SO4 (group 1), 2% HCl (group 2), 2% HNO3 (group 3), or 2% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) (group 4). Results: The new bone formation area and bone-implant contact (BIC) of the autotransplantation materials were measured after 8 weeks. The new bone formation area in experimental groups 2, 3, and 4 were greater than that in the control group (no graft) and in experimental group 1 at 8 weeks, and the BIC of experimental group 4 was greater than that in the control group and in experimental group 1; these differences showed statistical significance (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Auto-tooth bone treated with EDTA resulted in more effective bone formation in dogs' femurs than bone treated with other solutions.
