2. Bone graft :
Bone or bone like synthetic substance used to
fill a defect in a bone or to augment new
bone formation
Bone Grafts 2
3. Regeneration : Growth and differentiation of new cells and intercellular
substances to form new tissues or parts
Osteoconduction : 3-Dimensional structural scaffold to allow the ingrowth of
capillaries, perivascular tissue and osteoprogenitor cells of the
host into the graft. This process occurs in an already bone
containing environment
Osteoinduction : It involves the stimulation of osteoprogenitor cells to differentiate
into osteoblasts that then begin a new bone formation where
there was no bone. Most widely studied osteoinductive cell
mediators are BONE MORPHOGENIC PROTEINS
Osteogenesis : Refers to the formation of new bone which is contributed by the
vital osteoblasts originating from the bone graft material
5. Definitions
Autograft : A graft transferred from one site and grafted to another
site on the same person
Allograft : A graft obtained from a donor of the same species but
with different genetic make up. Formerly called as homograft
Xenograft : A graft between members of different species
[Heterografts]
Alloplast : A synthetic bone graft material ie. A bone graft sustitute
Isograft : A graft between identical individuals

11. Necessites For New Bone Growth
1.Presence of blood clot
2.Preservation of osteoblastic
cells
3.Contact with living tissue
Bone Grafts 11
13. Autogenous Bone Grafts
1. Considered the GOLD STANDARD among all the graft materials
2. Gives more predictable results
3. Contains live osteoblasts and osteoprogenitor stem cells and heal
by osteogenesis

15. Osseous Coagulum
1. Extension of previous
technique
2. Mixture of bone dust
and blood
3. The smaller the particle
size of the donor bone ,
the more certain it’s
resorption and
replacement with host
bone
Bone Grafts 15
16. 4. Sources of the graft
material include the
lingual ridge , exotoses ,
edentulous etc
5. The obvious advantage
is the ease of obtaining
bone from already
exposed surgical sites
6. Disadvantage : Low
predictability and
inability to procure
adequate material for
large defects
Bone Grafts 16
17. Bone Blend
1. Bone is removed from a predetermined site
2. Triturated for about 60 secs
3. Bone blend is seen clinging to the walls
4. Trituration reduces the bone fragment particle size in a
range of about 100 – 200 μm to a workable , plastic like
mass and packed into bony defects
Bone Grafts 17
18. Intraoral Cancellous Bone Marrow
1. Cancellous bone can be obtained
from the maxillary tuberosity ,
edentulous areas and healing
sockets
2. Good amount of foci of red
marrow is observed
3. Healing sockets are allowed to
heal for 8 to 12 weeks and the
apical portion is used as donor
material
Bone Grafts 18
19. Bone Swaging
1. Requires the existence of an edentulous area
adjacent to the defect
2. Bone is then pushed into the defect with the
root surface without fracturing the bone at it’s
base
3. It is technically difficult and it’s usefulness is
limited
Bone Grafts 19
20. Extra Oral Illiac Autografts
1. The use of fresh or
preserved illiac cancellous
marrow has been
extensively investigated
2. Studies show that there
was a mature PDL and
about 2mm supracrestal
new attachment
formation
21. Healing Of Autografts
Four Stages :
• Granulation Stage : When hematoma develops , an inflammatory
response occurs and the formation of granulation tissue takes
place
• Callus Stage : Mesenchymal cell differentiates mainly into
osteoblasts
• Remodelling Stage : Hard callus tissue is replaced by lamella bone
• Modelling Stage : Bone adapts to the structural demands due to
functional stimuli

Advantages
1. Promotes osteogenesis
2. Risk of disease transfer
avoided
3. Easily procured
Disadvantages
1. Inadequate material
2. Might need hospitilization
3. Inflicting surgical trauma in
other parts of the body

24. Allografts - An Intro……..
1. They are obtained from
cortical bone within 12 hours
of the death of the donor
2. They are cut into pieces ,
washed in absolute alcohol ,
defatted deep frozen
3. All these radiation , freezing
and chemical treatment was to
suppress the antigenic
potential

be demineralized and
subsequently ground
and sieved to a
particle size of about
250 to 750 ÎĽm and
freeze dried
5. Finally , it is vaccum
sealed in glass vials and
stored in tissue banks

1. Frozen illiac cancellous bone and marrow
2. Mineralized freeze dried bone grafts [FDBA]
3. Decalcified freeze dried bone grafts [DFDBA]
Bone Grafts 26
27. Frozen Illiac Cancellous Bone and Marrow
The possibility of
disease transfer
antigenicity
the need for extensive cross matching
has precluded the use of frozen illiac allografts
in modern periodontics
Bone Grafts 27
28. Mineralized Freeze Dried Bone Allografts [FDBA]
1. Introduction to periodontal therapy in 1976 [Mellonig
et.al ]
2. Freeze drying kills all the cells but
the morphology
the solubility &
chemical integerity of the original
specimen is relatively intact
3. AAP recommends the use of cortical rather than
cancellous bone allografts since cancellous bone is
more antigenic and there is more bone matrix
4. Provides an osteoconductive scaffold
Bone Grafts 28
29. Mineralized Freeze Dried Bone Allografts [FDBA]
Disadvantage :
The potential
disadvantage of
increased turn over
time may
be the bio availability
and
activity of BMP s
because the
mineralized
component must
be resorbed in order
Bone Grafts 29
E.g.: Puros Graft Material
30. Decalcified Freeze Dried Bone Allograft [DFDBA]
1. Demineralization of a cortical bone
induces new bone formation and
greatly enhances it.’s osteogenic
potential
2. Demineralization with HCL exposes
the bone inductive proteins located
in the bone matrix
3. These proteins are collectively called
BONE MORPHOGENIC
PROTEIN [BMP]
Bone Grafts 30
31. 4. BMP stimulates the formation of
new
bone by OSTEOINDUCTION
ie. The demineralized graft induces
host cells to differentiate into
osteoblasts whereas an
undemineralized allograft
functions
by OSTEOCONDUCTION as it
affords a scaffold for new bone
formation
Bone Grafts 31
32. The ideal particle size is
between
250 to 500 ÎĽm. This small
size
permits
1. High inductive potential
2. Easy resorption &
replacement
3. Increased surface area for
primordial mesenchymal
interaction

wherein repopulation of Periodontium is
achieved, by guiding the periodontal ligament
progenitor cells to reproduce in the desired
location, by blocking contact of epithelial and
gingival connective tissues with the root using
a barrier membrane during healing.”
Bone Grafts 47
48. Melcher suggests that, under physiological
conditions, only cells from periodontal ligament
can synthesise and secrete cementum to attach
newly-synthesised collagen fibres of periodontal
ligament or lamina propria of gingiva to tooth.

MEMBRANE EXPOSURE & INFECTION ARE THE COMMON
COMPLICATIONS AFTER GTR.
PROPER TISSUE MANIPULATION AND CLINICAL TECHNIQUES WITH
APPROPRIATE ANTIBIOTICS CAN REDUCE THESE COMPLICATIONS.
FLAP TENSION & IMPROPER ADAPTATION CAN LEAD TO MEMBRANE
EXPOSURE.
SOME STUDIES SUGGEST TOPICAL APPLICATION OF 25%
METRONIDAZOLE GEL MAY IMPROVE HEALING IN AREAS OF MEMBRANE
EXPOSURE. (Sander et al, J.Dent Res, vol 72, 1992)
ADVISABLE TO REMOVE EXPOSED & INFECTED MEMBRANES AS EARLY AS
