Vertical ridge augmentation using an equine bone and collagen block infused with recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor-BB: a randomized single-masked histologic study in non-human primates. This study tests the effectiveness of hydroxyapatite and collagen bone blocks of equine origin (eHAC), infused with recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor-BB (rhPDGF-BB), to augment localized posterior mandibular defects in non-human primates (Papio hamadryas). Methods: Bilateral critical-sized defects simulating severe atrophy were created at the time of the posterior teeth extraction. Test and control blocks (without growth factor) were randomly grafted into the respective sites in each non-human primate. Results: All sites exhibited vertical ridge augmentation, with physiologic ha...
The combination of purified recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor-BB and equine particulate bone graft for periodontal regeneration. The objective of this study is to evaluate the potential for periodontal regeneration of a critical-sized defect with the application of recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor (rhPDGF-BB) combined with either a particulate equine or a β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) matrix. Methods: Critical-sized intrabony 2-wall defects were created bilaterally on the distal surface of the second premolar and the mesial surface of the first molar in nine hounds. Twelve defects received rhPDGF-BB/equine treatment, 12 defects received rhPDGF-BB/β-TCP treatment, and the remaining 12 sites served as ...
Investigations into the mycology of dental calculus in town-dwellers, agricultural workers and grazing animals. The research article aims to investigate the mycology of dental calculus (tartar) and its potential to harbor fungal organisms that could lead to ocular infections, particularly in those involved in […]
