  • Title: [The comparative characteristics of stimulators of reparative osteogenesis in the treatment of periodontal diseases].
    Author: Zuev VP, Dmitrieva LA, Pankratov AS, Filatova NA.
    Journal: Stomatologiia (Mosk); 1996; 75(5):31-4. PubMed ID: 9045403.
    Abstract:
    The authors compare the efficacy of ultra highly dispersed hydroxyapatite (brand OSTIM-100) and demineralized bone matrix implanted to 395 patients for repair of bone defects. OSTIM-100 was found not inferior to bone transplant, but devoid of its shortcomings. Complications occurred in 1.5% cases and never involved the site of osteoplasty, whereas in the group transplanted bone matrix 3.6% patients developed complications, which were frequently associated with the graft rejection. OSTIM-100 was particularly effective in the treatment of periodontitis at the stage of abscesses. It is convenient and recommended, in combination with membranes of directed regeneration of tissues (GORE-TEX), for surgical treatment of patients with periodontal diseases.
