To repair bony defects with tansplanted bone in the body, fresh autogenous bone is undoubtly, the most effective bone graft for clinical applications. But the demineralized bone has the matrix-induced bone formation which was suggested by Urist in 1965. Many authors assisted that demineralized bone powder induces phenotypic conversion of mesenchymal cells into osteoblasts, with high-density bone formation. The process of inducing differentiated cells becomes osteogenic properties. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the osteoinductive capacity of allogenic freeze-dried demineralized bone block (FDD, $7{\times}7mm$) and to compare FDD with the same sue of deep-frozen allogenic bone(DF), fresh autogenous bone (A) after implantation. The histological and ultrastructural features of tissue responses were examined after 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 weeks implantation of each experimental groups in the operative site of the New Zealand white rabbits. The results were as follows : 1. Inflammatory cell infiltration generally has appeared at 1 week, but reduced at 4 weeks in each group, but most severe in DF group. 2. Osteoblastic activity has increased for 4 weeks, but decreased at 6 weeks in each group and there was no significant difference among experimental groups. 3. New bone formation has begun at 1week, least activations in A groups, and showed the revesal line of bone formation among each group at 6 to 8 weeks. 4. Bone resorption has appeared at 1 week, but disappeared at 4 weeks in both A and DF groups, but more severe in DF than A groups. 5. In ultrastructural changs, the DF group have showed the most remarkable osteoclastic activities among experimental groups. 6. Osteoid or tangled collagen fibrils near the implanted sites were replaced by more mature, lamellated bony trabeculae during bone remodeling. There was little difference among each experimental groups. 7. During the convertion osteoblasts to osteocytes which embedded within the bone matrix, there was organ-less-poor cytoplasm, increased nuclear chromatin, abundant rough endothelial reticulum (RER) in each groups. From the above the findings, the DF group shored more bone resorption and foreign body reaction than FDD and A groups, and FDD group showed more new bone formation or osteoblastic activity than DF and A groups in early stage. There was no significant difference of cellular activities among the FDD DF, and A groups according to the time.

Several experimental studies showed that the application of small amounts of electric current to bone stimulated osteogenesis at the site of the cathode and suggests that the application of electrical currents to periodontal defects could promote bone and cementum formation. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of direct microcurrent to the periodontal regeneration of class III furcation defects in dogs. Class III furcation defects were surgically created on the third and the fourth premolars bilaterally in the mandibles of nine mongrel dogs. Experimental periodontitis were induced by placing small cotton pellets into the created defects for 3 weeks. The experimental sites were divided into three groups according to the treatment modalities: Group I-surgical debridement only; Group II-allogenic demineralized freeze dried bone grafting; Group III-allogenic demineralized freeze dried bone grafting and electrical stimulation. For fluorescence microscopic evaluation, calcein, oxytetracycline HCI and alizarin red were injected 2, 4 and 8 weeksfS days prior to sacrifice) after surgery. The animals were sacrificed in the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 8th week after periodontal surgery and the decalcified and undecalcified specimens were prepared for histological and histometrical examination. After the first and the second weeks, gingival recession was more severe in group I than groups II and III. After the fourth and the eighth weeks, there was no difference in the width of junctional epithelium and connective tissue attachment among the three groups, but the width of connective tissue attachment increased in group II at the eighth week, compared to the fourth week. The amount of bone repair in new attachment was significantly greater in group III, compared to groups I and II. New attachment formation was significantly greater in group III, compared to groups I and group II. These results suggest that electrical stimulation using microcurrent generator could be a useful tool for periodontal regenerative therapy in class III furcation defect.

The number of patients with coronary artery disease and peripheral vascular disease are increasing, and the need of small diameter vessel is also increasing. We developed small diameter artificial vessel and experimented in vivo. We got allogenic valve from mongrel dogs, and removed all cells from the allogenic valve. Then, we seeded autologous bone marrow cells onto the decellularized scaffold. After implantation of artificial vessel into the canine carotid artery, we performed angiography regularly. In case of vessel occlusion or at 8 weeks after operation, we euthanized dogs, and retrieved the implanted artificial vessels. Control vessels were all occluded except one (which developed aneurysmal dilatation). But autologous cell seeded vascular graft were patent by 4 weeks in one, by 6 in one and by 8 weeks in two. Histologic examination of patent vessel revealed similar structure to native artery. Tissue-engineered vascular graft manufactured with decellularized allogenic matrix and autologous bone marrow cells showed that tissue engineered graft had similar structure to native artery.

More and more, esthetic and functional reconstruction of intra oral bone defect by trauma, pathologic disease is increasing in these days. the study about this field is going. Autogenous bone graft has advantage in biocompatyibility, but loss of donor material was relatively large. Allogenic graft has disadvantage in immunologic refusal reaction. We reconstructed several cases of periodontal, alveolar bone defects and pathologic bone defects, In all cases, we used resorbable membrane Biomesh and autogenous bone graft from retromolar triangle area, chin, torus, maxillary tuberosity, and extraction socket. From these cases, we obtained good prognosis, so we report clinical cases of Guided Tissue Regeneration with autogenous bone graft.

Recent development of dental implantology has taken an interest in the bone graft procedure. This is a review of literature, published from 1994 to November 1999. This study is provided by MEDLINE search. In this study, 718 patients received 829 graft with placing 2,677 endosseous implants. In mandible, nonvascularized or vascularized block bone grafts provided better results(success rate 95.2%) than particulate grafts(83.6%). But in maxilla, particulate grafts provided better results(93.7%, 86.2%) and more cases especially in sinus elevation. There were many cases using autogenous bone graft and revealed good results, but allogenic or alloplastic bone graft materials also were used by many surgeons.

Dental implant restoration in partial or full edentulous state has become the standard treatment in recent years. Bone graft with guided bone regeneration technique has been regarded as one of the most reliable methods to restore the bone defect area due to periodontal disease or dental trauma. Bone graft materials and membrane are the essential component of guided bone regeneration; however, a variety of bone graft materials confuse us in implant dentistry. Autogenous bone is the recognized standards in implant dentistry owing to its osteogenesis potential. Despite of its disadvantages, grafting autogenous bone is the most reliable methods. Even though the development of new bone grafts materials, autogenous bone is useful in exposed implant thread and total lack of buccal or lingual bone. Allogenic, xenogenic and synthetic bone have the osteoconductive and osteoinductive potential. These materials could be used successfully in self-contained cavity such as sinus cavity and three-wall defects. In this article, application of bone graft material is suggested according to the function of bone graft materials.

The ultimate goal of periodontal therapy is promoting the regeneration of lost periodontal tissue. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of treatment using decalcified freeze dried bone allograft as a bone graft material. 47 intrabony defects from 27 patients with clinical diagnosis of chronic periodontitis were selected among those 24 defects were treated via flap operation only and designated as the control group, the other 23 defects were treated with decalcified freeze dired bone allografting via flap operation and designated as the experimental group. Clinical parameters including probing depth, loss of attachment, probing bone level and gingival recession have been recorded at 6th months, and the significance of the changes has been analyzed. The results are as follows : 1. Probing depths were reduced significantly in both control group($2.75{\pm}0.99mm$) and experimental group($3.69{\pm}0.97mm$) postoperatively(p<0.01). Experimental group showed significantly higher decrease compared to the control group(p]0.01). 2. Loss of attachment showed statistically significant decrease in both control group($1.77{\pm}1.08mm$) and experimental group postoperatively($2.70{\pm}1.55mm$). Experimental group showed significantly higher decrease compared to the control group(p]0.05). 3. Probing bone levels were reduced with statistically significance in both control group($1.08{\pm}0.97mm$) and experimental group($4.00{\pm}1.41mm$) postoperatively(p<0.01). Experimental group showed significantly higher decrease compared to the control group(p<0.01). 4. Gingival recession showed statistically significant increase in the control group($1.21{\pm}0.72mm$) and experimental group($1.00{\pm}1.09mm$) postoperatively(p<0.01). There was no statistical significance between the control group and the experimental group. On the basis of these results, treatment using allogenic decalcified freeze dried bone is effective in reducing probing depth, loss of attachment and probing bone level. Therefore allogenic decalcified freeze dried bone is an effective bone graft material in periodontal regeneration.

Implantation of allografts has increased widely with not only the availability of many allogenic bone but also allogenic soft tissues. The aim of tissue banking is to provide surgeons with safe tissues compatible with their intended clinical application. The incidence of tissue transplant-transmitted infection is unknown and can only be inferred from prospective studies. The possibility of donor-to-recipient disease transmission through soft tissue transplantation can be considered by reviewing the risk associated with other transplanted hard tissues. Viral, bacterial, and fungal infections have been transmitted via transplantation of soft tissue allografts such as skin, cornea, dura, pericardium. fascia lata, and heart valves. Corneas have transmitted rabies, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), hepatitis B (HBV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), herpes simplex virus (HSV), bacteria, and fungi. Heart valves have been implicated in transmitting tuberculosis, hepatitis B. HIV-1 and CMV. CJD has been transmitted by dura and pericardium transplants. Skin has transmitted CMV, bacteria, and fungi. Cadaveric skin, pericardium, dura, and fascia lata have been used in dental patients with intra-oral soft tissue injuries and GBR. This study is review of the considering transmission of infectious disease in allogenic soft tissues and guidelines of reducing the risk. Prior to use, many tissues are exposed to antibiotics, disinfectants, and sterilants, which further reduce or remove the risk of transmitted disease. Because some soft tissue grafts cannot be subjected to sterilization steps, the risk of infectious disease transmission remains and thorough donor screening and testing is especially important.

An indirect reduction through the bicipital groove and allogenic iliac tricortical bone graft was performed as a treatment for a large Hill-Sachs lesion with a rotator cuff tear in an acute traumatic shoulder joint dislocation in an elderly patient. Six months after surgery, the rotator cuff healing and bone union were confirmed. The patient also showed satisfactory clinical results with 95 points of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) shoulder score and active range of motion with 155° flexion, 120° abduction, and 70° external rotation and 30° internal rotation at 90° abduction. The surgical method can be considered for a large Hill-Sachs lesion with rotator cuff tear in an acute traumatic shoulder joint dislocation in elderly patients.

The use of autogenous tooth bone graft material has been commercialized since 2008. Autogenous tooth bone grafts always require that the tooth of the patient be extracted, and thus, the use of graft material are limited in many cases. For solution of limitation in quantity and concurrent use of autogenous tooth bone graft material, the grafting of familial teeth has been suggested. It has the following advantages: the teeth of family members are used as bone graft materials, the genetic composition is identical, and potential genetic and infectious risks can be minimized. Because the teeth of family members are used, a good tissue affinity is obtained, and thus, superior bone generation rates compared to those observed for allogenic or xenogenic bones can be anticipated. We used familial tooth bone-graft materials for alveolar ridge augmentation, socket preservation, and maxillary sinus graft in some cases. In most cases, the impacted third molars of their children were prepared as bone graft material and were used for surgery. In one case, the impacted third molar from the patient's brother was used as bone graft material. We obtained satisfactory result and these cases are reported herein.
