title: [Tricalcium phosphate and its biodegradable ceramics in periodontal bone surgery. A review of the literature].
abstract: The chemistry, structure, biocompatibility and effect of biodegradable tricalcium phosphate and tricalcium phosphate ceramic are evaluated with the pertinent literature. With proper indication and use the biodegradable tricalcium phosphate implants for the formation of new bone and reattachment in periodontal pockets may be successful. The biodegradable material has to be sufficiently tried out and examined in further animal and clinical studies before recommending it for general use.
