Acceleration of Bone Regeneration by BMP‐2‐Loaded Collagenated Biphasic Calcium Phosphate in Rabbit Sinus

Purpose The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of collagenated biphasic calcium phosphate ( CBCP ) as a carrier for bone morphogenetic protein‐2 ( BMP ‐2) at the early stage of healing in rabbit sinus. Material and Methods In 16 rabbits, BMP ‐2‐loaded CBCP was grafted into one sinus (the BMP group) and saline‐soaked CBCP was grafted into another sinus (the CTL group). The groups were assigned randomly. After 2 weeks ( n =...
