Assessment of osteogenic potential of the natural origin bioceramics implanted into the human infrabony periodontal defects.
The osteogenic potential of natural origin bioceramics implanted in human periodontal infrabony defects was investigated Histologic and electron-microscopic analyses of implants 3 and 4.5 months after implantation were used for the estimation of osteogenic potential. Results show that the bioceramics of natural origin with a microstructure and canalicular system of the natural bone has a strong osteogenic potential. Results of histologic and electron-microscopic analyses, performed four and half months after implantation, show that new bone has been formed in the places of absorbed or partially absorbed implant granules as also in the pores of implant granules. Histological structure of the newly-formed bone correspond to the structure of the matured lamellated bone.
