Assessment of bone repair associated with the use of organic bovine bone Gen-ox~R Organic and membrane irradiated with 830 nm

摘要

The treatment of bone defects using biomaterials has been extensively studied. Demineralized bone matrix has osteoinductive properties due to the presence of soluble growth factors in its composition. Guided Tissue Regeneration is widely used for treating periodontal defects and lately it has been used to treat other bone defects and is known as Guided Bone Regeneration-GTR. The use of organic bovine bone and membrane has been well described. Although the use of LLLT on the biomodulation of bone repair has been growing steadily and several studies have demonstrated positive results on the healing of bone tissue [1-5], there are no reports on the association of LLLT and biomaterials.
