Abstract
Dental implant placement requires adequate bone volume. There are multiple techniques employed to augment the lost volume, using a plethora of biomaterials available. Many authors have written on the properties of a biomaterial when used in a specific indication and its behavior over time. This review puts together the basics of bone biomaterials along with a critical analysis with respect to their biologic potential, turnover and stability. It also presents a plausible recommendation of which biomaterial to use in a particular clinical presentation with a classification of biomaterials according to type, form and processing.
期刊介绍:
This journal offers comprehensive coverage of new techniques, important developments and innovative ideas in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. Practice-applicable articles help develop the methods used to handle dentoalveolar surgery, facial injuries and deformities, TMJ disorders, oral cancer, jaw reconstruction, anesthesia and analgesia. The journal also includes specifics on new instruments, diagnostic equipment’s and modern therapeutic drugs and devices. Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is recommended for first or priority subscription by the Dental Section of the Medical Library Association. Specific topics covered recently have included: ? distraction osteogenesis ? synthetic bone substitutes ? fibroblast growth factors ? fetal wound healing ? skull base surgery ? computer-assisted surgery ? vascularized bone grafts Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
