| Research Abstract |
Two concepts of biomaterials are necessory for the maxillary reconstruction : one is to fill the bone defect by osteogenetic materials, and second is to keep the bone defect space for which the former material would be able to induce the osteoinductivity.
The aim of this study is to investigate the os Resity of the experimental bone cavity and the interface between biomaterials and host bone using Expanded polytetrafloroethylene (EPTFE) Patch^<TM> composite with Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) composite (EPTFE-BMP) membrane as a periosteum substitute. At the initial planning, fuman BMP was applied with this composite material, however, polification of it has noe been advanced.
One mg of BMP extracted from bovine bone matrix was used for preliminary experimental study instead of fuman BMP.BMP was applied with the surface of the EPTFE Patches. Drill hole of 5mm in diameter was made with removal of surrounding periosteum in the femur of Japanese white rabbit and covered with EPTFE-BMP composite membrane. EPTFE alone was also used as a control on the other side. Two week and four week after implantation, all animals were sacrificed and the specimens were observed histologically. The results demonstrated that bone defect of the EPTFE-BMP composite membrane group was filled with new bone tissue mixed with bone marrow, and micro pores of the inner portion of the membrane were filled with new bone. Same new bone formation was also observed on the EPTFE alone group. The result demonstrated that there was no difference between EPTFE-BMP composite membrane and EPTFE alone group.
