![]() ![]() The vertical distance between the implant platform to the first radiopaque material on both the mesial and distal surfaces were measured and crestal bone/material level changes were analyzed. Standardized periapical radiographs were taken immediately after implant placement and at every month up to 1 year. Three implants were placed on either side of the mandible with either bone adhesive (BA), bovine bone mineral (BBM), or no biomaterial (negative control ). ![]() Twenty-six mixed breed hound dogs were included in this study. This was a randomized, controlled, three arm, prospective study. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the maintenance of crestal bone/material level by standardized radiographs. A novel bone adhesive (tetracalcium phosphate and O-phospho-L-serine) has been developed as an osteoconductive, biodegradable bone-adherent material. ![]()
