Dr. Suzuki featured in Implant Dentistry publication
We're pleased to announce that an article by our own Dr. Kevin Suzuki will be featured in an upcoming issue of IMPLANT DENTISTRY, the flagship publication of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists, (ICOI). The upcoming article based on the study "Long-term histopathologic evaluation of bio active glass and human-derived graft materials in Macacafascicularis mandibular ridge reconstruction" was written by Kevin R. Suzuki, DMD, MS, Carl E. Misch, DDS, MDS, Gabriel Arana, DDS, Thomas E. Rams, DDS, MHS, Jon B. Suzuki, DDS, PhD, MBA. The article is a collaboration of their findings from the study that took place at the CEMIC institute in BuenosAires, Argentina. The study evaluated long-term clinical and histological characteristics of alveolar ridge bone regenerated by two different types of bone graft materials in a Macacafascicularis (non-human primate) species animal. It compared bio active glass (alloplast) with human …demineralized bone matrix (xenograft). Numerous particles of non-resorbedbio active glass graft material, but not human demineralized bone matrix, were found in four-year post-treatment bone core biopsies of regenerated bone in M. fascicularis mandibular alveolar ridge reconstructions.
Their research found that long term the alloplastic material did not completely turnover to normal bone. There were still original graft particles present which could question how effective the synthetic material may be to prepare a site for placement of an implant.
