Abstract

Absorbable membranes are used to promote the regeneration of periodontal defects by Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR). However, their collapse into the defect is commonly reported, impairing regeneration. Therefore, absorbable but rigid membranes aiming at preventing such collapse were developed and analyzed in periodontal regeneration. Membranes were analyzed in class II furcation defects in dogs; procedures included periodontal disease induction, prophylaxis and GTR (treated groups) or open flap debridement alone (control group). For GTR, the membranes were made of either 25% hydroxyapatite (HA) in polyhydroxybutyrate matrix (PHB) or 35% HA in PHB. Animals were clinically evaluated for gingival recession, clinical attachment level (CAL) and biopsies were collected at 60 and 120 days. Bone volume, trabeculae number, trabecular thickness and trabecular separation were quantified by micro-computed tomography, followed by histology. Membrane exposure was observed in both treated groups (25 and 35% HAP) from the 8(th) day after surgery, continuously progressing until 120 days. Mean CAL for all groups remained above normal values for dogs. Bone volumetric values were not significantly different. Partial formation of bone, cementum a...Continue Reading
