7. Historically, bone grafting has consisted of:
A surgical procedure to harvest the patients own bone from a secondary site
Utilization of an organic or artificial material to replace missing bone
Structural scaffolds &
matrices for attachment &
proliferation of anchorage
dependent osteoblasts

8. Evolution

9. Bone grafting accomplished through

10. Formation and development of new bone by viable cells
contained in the graft
Eg: Autogenous graft

11. Provide a biologic stimulus (proteins and growth factors) that
induces the progression of mesenchymal stem cells and other
osteoprogenitor cells toward the osteoblast lineage
Eg: DFDBA

12. Is the process by which the graft material acts as a nonviable
scaffold onto and within which the patients own natural bone
grows
They allow apposition from existing bone, but do not produce
or trigger bone formation.
Eg Alloplastic material

13. OsteopromotionOsteopromotion
Osteopromotion involves the enhancement of
osteoinduction without the possession of osteoinductive
properties.

14. Clinical objectives of bone grafting for periodontal regeneration
 Probing depth reduction
 Clinical attachment gain
 Bone fill of the osseous defect and
 Regeneration of new bone, cementum and periodontal ligament as
determined by histologic analysis.
In a review of animal histologic studies, Mellonig found that 75% of these
studies indicated favorable regenerative results when periodontal
defects were treated with grafting; none showed that non-graft control
sites were superior to grafted ones.

15.  Non-toxic-Non-antigenic with patient acceptance
 Resistant to infection
 Facilitate vascularization
 No root resorption or ankylosis
 Strong and resistant
 Stimulates osteoinduction- & framework for osteoconduction
 Easily adaptable

16.  Readily and sufficiently available
 Minimal surgical procedure with minimal post-operative
sequelae
 Predictability
 Completely replaced by host bone of the same quality – quantity
 Induce & enhance cementogenesis.

27. Studies
Stefano Sartori et al., analyse the amount of Bio-Oss
ossification in a case of maxillary sinus augmentation,
recording and comparing histomorphometric data 8 months, 2
and 10 years after surgery.
Eight months after surgery they observed a mean amount of bone tissue
(including medullar spaces) of 29.8% (and 70.2% of Bio-Oss) . At 2years the
bone tissue increased to 69.7% and 10years after surgery it was 86.7% .

28. Effect of low-level laser therapy irradiation and Bio-Oss graft
material on the osteogenesis process in rabbit calvarium defects:
a double blind experimental study- Alireza Rasouli et al., 2014
The mean amount of new bone was 15.83 and 18.5 % in the controls on the
4th and 8th week; 27.66 and 25.16 % in the laser-irradiated group; 35.0
and 41.83 % in Bio-Oss and 41.83 and 47.0 % in the laser + Bio-Oss
treated specimens with significant statistical differences. Application of
LLLT in combination with Bio-Oss can promote bone healing.

31. Clinical and radiographic evaluation of human periodontal
osseous defect (mandibular grade II furcation) treated with
PepGen P-15 and a bioresorbable membrane (Atrisorb)- 2012 KL
Vandana et.,al .
It can be concluded from this study that the reduction in furcation
defect using PepGen P-15 alone and a combination of PepGen P-15
and Atrisorb were equivocal. It can be suggested that the combined
use of GTR barrier and bone graft did not prove beneficial for the
clinical outcome of the mandibular grade II furcation defect
treatment. Hence, the cost effective and economical treatment of
choice for grade II furcation defects may be bone graft alone.

32. A Novel Combination Of Platelet Rich Fibrin And Pepgen P-15
Xenograft, In The Treatment Of Intrabony Defects: A Volumetric CT
Scan Analysis. 2013
At 6 and 9 month follow-up examination, it was observed that PD
reduced in range of 3 to 5 mm with 1 to 2 mm coronal shift in PGM and
again in CAL of 2 to 5 mm . A three-dimensional (3D) reconstructed
Dentascanimages acquired at 9 month interval, confirmed positive
changes in the defect morphology, with a linear bone growth of 1.5-
3mm( 33 to 37 %).The volumetric analysis showed a bone fill of 55 to
81% at the defect sites

33. Interdisciplinary Management of an Isolated Intrabony Defect- 2014
A 24 year male patient reported with the complaint of food lodgment and
occasional pain in relation to right lower first molar. Clinical examination
revealed deep periodontal pocket measuring 9mm on distal aspect of 46 and no
mobility

34. Treatment of Intrabony Defects with Anorganic Bone Matrix/P-15
or Guided Tissue Regeneration in Patients with Aggressive
Periodontitis -2013
Treatment of intrabony periodontal defects in patients with G-
AgP with ABM/P-15 and GTR improved significantly the clinical
outcomes. The use of ABM/P-15 promoted a better
radiographic bone fill.

35. Porcine derived bone graft:
Xenografts derived from porcine cortical and cancellous bone
have also been developed to be used as bone substitutes
OsteoBiol® It is a commercially available xenograft of porcine origin.
It is heterologous cortico cancellous collagenated bone mix. It always
be hydrated before use

36. Advantages:
It can act as a carrier for various therapeutic agents.
The collagen present in this bio material facilitates blood clotting
and the subsequent invasion of repairing and regenerative cells thus
favouring bone formation.
It also provides cohesive environment for graft particle.

37. Experimental Model of Bone Response to Collagenized Xenografts
of Porcine Origin (OsteoBiol® mp3): A Radiological and
Histomorphometric Study
After 4 months, radiological images revealed bone defects with
a decrease in graft volume and the complete repair of the
osseous defect.
The biomaterial used proved to be biocompatible,
bioabsorbable, and osteoconductive and as such, a possible
bone substitute that did not interfere with the bone’s normal

38. CORROLLINE CALCIUM CARBONATE
Biocoral is a calcium carbonate
Natural coral,
Primarily of aragonite.
It is biocompatible and resorbable
Porous size of 100-200um

39. Combination procedures
A combination of autogenous bone and bone substitute is widely used in
oral surgery procedures
Systematic review recommended a proportion of 1:2 (Merkx et al. 2003).
Pripatnanont et al. (2009) assessed new bone formation generated using
three different proportions of autogenous bone (AB) and deproteinized
bovine bone (BDX) in cortical skull defects in rabbits.
1:1 1:2 1:4

40. In deep intrabony defects treatment, at 12 months evaluation,
the combined use of autogenous spongiosa with bovine-derived
xenograft led to significantly greater gain of clinical attachment and
hard tissue formation compared to the use of autogenous
spongiosa alone
- (Zafiropoulos et al. 2007)

41. Efficacy of Using PDGF and Xenograft With or Without Collagen
Membrane for Bone Regeneration Around Immediate Implants
With Induced Dehiscence-Type Defects: A Microcomputed
Tomographic Study in Dogs- 2013
GBR around immediate implants with dehiscence defects using PDGF
and xenograft alone resulted in higher BBT, BBV, VBH, and BIC than
when performed in combination with CM.

42. A clinical and radiological evaluation of the relative efficacy of
demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft versus anorganic bovine bone
xenograft in the treatment of human infrabony periodontal defects: A 6
months follow-up study- 2014
The use of anorganic bovine bone mineral matrix combined with TGFβ-1
seemed to be effective in the treatment of intrabony defects. This showed an
improvement in the clinical outcome of periodontal therapy superior to the use
of anorganic bovine bone on its own.

43. Risk of transmission of prion mediated diseases – bovine
spongiform encephalopahty
In humans – Creutzfeldt – Jakob disease
WHO – bone as type IV (no transmission)for prion diseases
Segal and Tofe (1999) conducted an extensive review of current
literature on the status of risk assessment of BSE transmission the
risk of disease (BSE) transmission was negligible
Risk of diseasetransmission

45. CONCLUSION
Although complete periodontal regeneration is unpredictable with any
regenerative therapy currently used, periodontal bone grafts show strong
potential. Requirements for a successful graft includes Patient Selection,
material Selection, Proper Flap Reflection and Wound Stability,
Revascularization, Root Debridement, Postsurgical care .A large body of
clinical evidence clearly indicates that grafts consistently lead to better bone
fill than nongrafted controls. As more is learned about the biologic process of
periodontal regeneration, new graft materials are expected to make the task
of periodontal regeneration even more predictable.
