Objectives. Increased attention has been focused on determining the most efficacious materials for generalized bone grafts. This article presents the results of a histomorphometric analysis of bone healing in the calvaria of rabbits. The study compared the use of a tooth ash and plaster of Paris mixture alone, in association with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and in association with fibrin sealant.
Study design. Twelve rabbits were divided into control (group 1) and experimental groups (groups 2, 3, and 4). Group 1 was maintained as an unfilled control, and tooth ash and plaster of Paris were used in group 2, tooth ash and plaster of Paris with PRP were used in group 3, and tooth ash and plaster of Paris with fibrin sealant (Tissucol Duo Quick) were used in group 4. One-half of the animals were killed after 4 weeks, and the rest were killed after 8 weeks. Bone samples were taken from the defect areas, and newly formed bone was analyzed histomorphometrically.
Results. The rate of new bone formation in groups 2, 3, and 4 was significantly higher than the rate in the control group. The rate of new bone formation in groups 3 and 4 was higher than the rate in group 2, but the difference was not statistically significant.
Conclusion. The concomitant use of PRP or fibrin sealant with tooth ash and plaster of Paris graft materials may have a positive effect on bone healing. (Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol Oral Radiol Endod 2010;110:e8-e14)
