Q

what does the augmentation of the host cell population do?

A
  • Improves healing of bone lesions (damage).
  • Highly dependant on condition of the repair site.
    –If soft & hard tissue are healthy – expansion of host cells is often successfully applied.
    –Wound infection/ tissue necrosis /irritation – cellular augmentation of the local bone cell population will fail

Q

where is Guided bone regeneration applied?(dental)(GBR)

A

+ Extractions - Empty tooth socket after extraction – fill with bone-inducing granulate to avoid alveolus atrophy( bone degradation)
+Periodontopathy inflammation of the tissue around the teeth, often causing shrinkage of the gums and loosening of the teeth, ligament and surrounding bone are destroyed - tooth loss
+ Sinus floor elevation - Also called sinus-lifting - thickening of the bottom wall of
the sinus, where the implant is to be placed

Q

principles of guided bone regeneration(GBR)

A

-the implant is inserted in to he bone at the alveolar crest(first layer of bone that is not tooth)
-Membranes attached to the defect site – seals the
defect from tissue ingrowth of adjacent tissues.
- New bone is developed by using the membrane techniques.

Q

4 Biophysical bone repair strategies

A

I. Electrical Stimulation
II. Mechanical Stimulation – Distraction osteogenesis, ultrasound stimulation, fracture activation
III. Ultra sound adjacent structures (ligament, joints, muscle) – major impact on the resultant biophysical signal at the desired effector site.
IV. Distraction Osteogenesis Bones are gradually moved from each other – new bone grows within the gap. Molecular mechanisms governing the formation of new bone in interfragemental gap of
gradually distracted bone still unclear.

27
Q

what is cortectomy

A

used to fracture bone into two segments.

28
Q

how does Distraction
Osteogenesis work?

A

Bones are gradually moved from each other – new bone grows within the interfragmental gap after cortectomy.

29
Q

How are Biomolecules applied?

applied with or without a carrier to augment local bone cell populations.
