The defects were treated according to the GBR principle using the tested material, synthetic bi-layered biphasic calcium-phosphate bone substitute (Group T), deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM, positive control = PC), a mixture of the test substance and DBBM in a ratio of 1:1 (Group M) and a sham-operated empty control (negative control = NC). The defects were covered with a resorbable collagen barrier membrane. Bone formation was evaluated radiologically, microtomographically, and histomorphometrically after 11 weeks of healing.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Results</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>All biomaterials resulted in increased volume of the augmented bone compared to the negative control.
