After loss of tooth, initial healing process is critical to preserve residual alveolar process. This study was conducted to compare the effect of hydroxylapatite particle synthetic graft and guided tissue regeneration procedure on healing of extraction wounds in 5 mongrel dogs. To investigate the maturity of bone and velocity of bone heating, bone-labeled tracers were used. After 16 weeks healing period, dogs were sacrificed. The specimens were treated with Villanueva bone stain. Fluorescence microscopy and polarized microscopy were performed to exam the pattern of bone formation in the extraction socket. The results were following ; 1. Pattern of bone regeneration in the group of hydroxylapatie graft and the group of membrane protection after hydroxylapatite graft was following ; bone regeneration was slow, regenerated bone was immature, and thickness of cortical layer was thin compare to that of untreated control group. 2. Cortical layers in membrane protected group were somewhat thicker but less condense to that of untreated control group. 3. Infiltration of inflammation cells were found in the groups using hydroxylapatite graft and membrane. We concluded that grafting of replamineform hydroxylapatite particles into the extraction socket delayed healing of the wound and disturbed the formation of cortical bone at the roof of extraction socket. The placement of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene membranes on the extraction socket promotes the bone regeneration. But newly formed bone in cortical layer consists of the cortico-cancellous bone in comparison with the cortical bone of the control group.

Cryopreserved fibroblast implants represent a major advancement for healing of chronic wounds. Bone marrow stromal cells, which include the mesenchymal stem cells, have a low immunity-assisted rejection and are capable of expanding profoundly in a culture media. Therefore, they have several advantages over fibroblasts in clinical use. The ultimate goal of this study was to compare the wound healing accelerating growth factor secretion of the bone marrow stromal cells with that of the fibroblasts and this pilot study particularly focuses on the growth factor secretion to accelerate wound healing. Bone marrow stromal cells and fibroblasts were isolated from the same patients and grown in culture. At 1, 3, and 5 days post-incubating, secretion of basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and transforming growth factor beta(TGF-${\beta}$) were compared. In TGF-${\beta}$ secretion fibroblasts showed 12~21% superior results than bone marrow stromal cells. In contrast, bFGF levels in the bone marrow stromal cells were 47~89% greater than that in fibroblasts. The VEGF levels of the bone marrow stromal cells was 7~12 fold greater than that of the fibroblasts. Our results suggest that the bone marrow stromal cells have great potential for wound healing accelerating growth factor secretion.

It has been established that a graft of fibroblasts is able to improve wound healing. However, there has been no research on the effect of a graft of bone marrow stromal cells on wound healing. The wound healing process requires cell proliferation and production of extracellular matrix and various growth factors. The purpose of this study was to compare the abilities of human fibroblasts and bone marrow stromal cells, which contains mesenchymal stem cells, to proliferate and to produce collagen. Human bone marrow stromal cells and fibroblasts were isolated from bone marrow and dermis of the same patients and grown in culture respectively. Cell proliferation and production of type I collagen by human bone marrow stromal cells and dermal fibroblasts were examined by MTT method and by ELISA of cell culture media on day 1, 3, and 5 days post-incubating. The human bone marrow stromal cells showed 11-17% higher cell proliferation than fibroblasts at each time interval. The levels of type I collagen in the human bone marrow stromal cell group was also significantly higher than those in the fibroblast group. The results indicate that the grafts of human bone marrow stromal cells can show more promising effect than that of fibroblasts for healing of chronic wounds.

Introduction: Bone defects in the jaw are frequently observed after odontogenic cyst enucleation. The success of bone healing appears to be related to the size of the bone defect, the anatomical location, the patient's age and other parameters. The use of bone grafting material is dependent on the operator's preference. No evidence-based definite treatment protocol has been established. This study evaluated the effect of a bone graft into the defect after odontogenic cyst enucleation. Materials and Methods: A total of 55 patients, who had been treated for an odontogenic cyst with cyst enucleation from 2000 to 2009 at the department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Samsung Medical Center, were included in this study. Patients who were followed-up for more than 1 year were included. Two groups were defined according to the bone graft (with or without a bone graft) after cyst enucleation. The differences in the healing periods and patterns of bone healing were compared clinically and radiologically. The postoperative 1 year radiographs were analyzed for bone healing and density. Statistical analysis was performed using a Pearson chi square test and Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Results: More infection signs were observed in the bone graft group than in the other group, but there was no statistically significant difference. Radiographically, there was also no significant difference in the size of the radiolucent lesions between the two groups. Conclusion: There was no significant difference in healing between the groups with a bone graft and without bone graft after cyst enucleation.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of fibronectin and oxysterol immobilized on machined-surface dental implants for the enhancement of cell attachment and osteogenic differentiation, on peri-implant bone healing in the early healing phase using an experimental model in dogs. Methods: Five types of dental implants were installed at a healed alveolar ridge in five dogs: a machined-surface implant (MI), apatite-coated MI (AMI), fibronectin-loaded AMI (FAMI), oxysterol-loaded AMI (OAMI), and sand-blasted, large-grit, acid-etched surface implant (SLAI). A randomly selected unilateral ridge was observed for 2 weeks, and the contralateral ridge for a 4-week period. Histologic and histometric analyses were performed for the bone-to-implant contact proportion (BIC) and bone density around the dental implant surface. Results: Different bone healing patterns were observed according to the type of implant surface 2 weeks after installation; newly formed bone continuously lined the entire surfaces in specimens of the FAMI and SLAI groups, whereas bony trabecula from adjacent bone tissue appeared with minimal new bone lining onto the surface in the MI, AMI, and OAMI groups. Histometric results revealed a significant reduction in the BIC in MI, AMI, and OAMI compared to SLAI, but FAMI demonstrated a comparable BIC with SLAI. Although both the BIC and bone density increased from a 2- to 4-week healing period, bone density showed no significant difference among any of the experimental and control groups. Conclusions: A fibronectin-coated implant surface designed for cell adhesion could increase contact osteogenesis in the early bone healing phase, but an oxysterol-coated implant surface designed for osteoinductivity could not modify early bone healing around implants in normal bone physiology.

Purpose: This study evaluated differences in bone healing and remodeling among 3 implants with different surfaces: sandblasting and large-grit acid etching (SLA; IS-III $Active^{(R)}$), SLA with hydroxyapatite nanocoating (IS-III $Bioactive^{(R)}$), and SLA stored in sodium chloride solution ($SLActive^{(R)}$). Methods: The mandibular second, third, and fourth premolars of 9 dogs were extracted. After 4 weeks, 9 dogs with edentulous alveolar ridges underwent surgical placement of 3 implants bilaterally and were allowed to heal for 2, 4, or 12 weeks. Histologic and histomorphometric analyses were performed on 54 stained slides based on the following parameters: vertical marginal bone loss at the buccal and lingual aspects of the implant (b-MBL and l-MBL, respectively), mineralized bone-to-implant contact (mBIC), osteoid-to-implant contact (OIC), total bone-to-implant contact (tBIC), mineralized bone area fraction occupied (mBAFO), osteoid area fraction occupied (OAFO), and total bone area fraction occupied (tBAFO) in the threads of the region of interest. Two-way analysis of variance (3 types of implant $surface{\times}3$ healing time periods) and additional analyses for simple effects were performed. Results: Statistically significant differences were observed across the implant surfaces for OIC, mBIC, tBIC, OAFO, and tBAFO. Statistically significant differences were observed over time for l-MBL, mBIC, tBIC, mBAFO, and tBAFO. In addition, an interaction effect between the implant surface and the healing time period was observed for mBIC, tBIC, and mBAFO. Conclusions: Our results suggest that implant surface wettability facilitates bone healing dynamics, which could be attributed to the improvement of early osseointegration. In addition, osteoblasts might become more activated with the use of HA-coated surface implants than with hydrophobic surface implants in the remodeling phase.

Bone scintigraphy with $^{99m}Tc-methylene$ diphosphonate(MDP) performed for 20 weeks per two weeks interval respectively after fracture in seven(male 3 heads, female 4 heads) canine radius were analysed. All of bone scans performed 2 weeks to 20 weeks after fracture showed increase in generalized tracer uptake and showed localized increase in tracer uptake at the fracture site. Bone scans and ratio performed 6 weeks after fracture showed the most outstanding increase in generalized and localized tracer uptake. New bone formation had been observed from 2 weeks and they were incorporated completely on 18 weeks, they showed most activity during 6-10 weeks after fracture. It was recognized that the bone scan with $^{99m}Tc-methylene$ was quite sensitivity but low specificity on the fracture healing in canine radius.

The effect of the hydroxyapatite coatings on Titanium implants has been the subject of recent investigations. So far, the use of HA coating remains substantially controversial.This study was aimed to evaluate histologically the bone healing patterns around titanium plasm sprayed(TPS) amd HA-coated implant after implantation into the femur neck of ten adult dogs. After implantation, animals were sacrificed at the intervals of 2,4,6,8 and 12 weeks.The fluorescent dyes were injected on the postoperative 4th and 12th week into the animals supposed to be killed at the 12th week. The morphology and direction of new bone formation was similar in both TPS and HA-coated implants.There was a tendency toward more bone formation in the cortical bone area than in the cancellous bone area. Histologically,in the interface of the HA-coated implants, bone response and bone maturation was faster, compared to the TPS implants in the 2nd and 4th week. By fluorescent microscopy, new bone formation was active in the 4th week around both implants and was directed from the periosteum overlying cortical bone to the cancellous bone. These results suggest that the bone formation and maturation is faster during the early healing stage in the interface of the HA-coated implant and where the cortical bone quality is poor, HA coated implant is superior to the TPS implant in the early phase of new bone formation.

Carthamus tinctorius L.is known to improve fracture healing, and bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are associated with the formation and healing process of bone. BMP-2 and BMP-7 are two of the most important BMPs during the bone healing process. Human osteosarcoma MG63 cells and rats were used to determine the effects of Carthamus tinctorius L. extract (CTE) on BMP-2 gene expression. BMP-2 gene expression by CTE treatment in human osteosarcoma MG63 cells was not different from the control group until 8 hours of incubation, but was significantly higher, by 31%, than that of the control group at 16 hr of incubation. Microscopic findings of the 9th rib 3 weeks after fracture showed typical rimming of the osteoblast and immature bone formation in control and CTE groups. BMP-2 gene expression by in situ hybridization was remarkably increased by a CTE-supplemented diet in the fracture group compared to the control group. In conclusion, Carthamus tinctorius L. increased BMP-2 gene expression in human osteosarcoma cells and fractured bone. But further studies would be needed to elucidate the effect of CTE on fracture healing in vivo because our results did not show any evidence of healing improvement histologically $3^{rd}$ week after fracture.
