Abstract
Aim of this study was to show that modified #calciumphosphatecement
(CPC) that includes gelatin particles effectively promotes bone
regeneration in the canine mandible. The modified CPC is a mixture of
hydroxyapatite (HAp) particles, whose surfaces have been modified with
#inositol #hexaphosphate (IP6), and -tricalcium phosphate (-TCP) powder.
Mixing powdered gelatin with the HAp surface-modified with IP6
/ -TCP cement creates a composite that becomes porous after setting in
vivo. For this experiment we produced four experimental mixtures,
each with a different concentration of gelatin particles. We created
bone defects in the #mandibles of beagle dogs, and we injected one of the
four experiment materials in each defect. After 6 months, mandibles were
removed for micro-CT and histological analyses. These analyses
showed that at experimental sites at which the cement had a gelatin
particle mixing ratio of 0 mass% and 5 mass%, new bone had formed only
at contact boundaries of #unresorbedcement. In contrast, at each
experimental site at which the gelatin particle mixing ratio of the
cement was
10 mass% or 15 mass%, the cement specimen was almost completely resorbed
and new bone had formed at the peripheral and internal areas
of the original cement mass.
