Vertical bone augmentation using carbonate apatite bone substitute

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

Statement of Purpose: Recently, AB-type carbonate apatite (CO3Ap) bone substitute block was fabricated by just immersing a precursor, CaCO3 block, in sodium phosphate solution through dissolution-precipitation reaction. CO3Ap block showed higher osteoconductivity and replaced to bone. It should be noted that not only composition but also structure plays important role for the replacement to bone since porous structure allows cells penetration interior to the bone substitute. One of the interesting porous structures is honeycomb. In this study, CO3Ap honeycomb was fabricated, and evaluated its usefulness as vertical bone augmentation device using rabbits as experimental animals.
