| Research Abstract |
Mechanical stress for bone substitute materials from surrounding environment considered as a key factor to display its own ability to the full after implantation. The purpose of this project is to develop a new device to determine the quantity of mechanical stress for implanted bone substitute materials. Histological and structural examinations were performed to regenerated bone by octacalcium phosphate (OCP)based bone substitute materials. The structural data of regenerated bone by OCP based materials showed differences between original bone in the aspect of cortical bone thickness and cancellous bone structure.
