Early histological evaluation of bone defect healing with and without guided bone regeneration techniques: experimental animal studies.

To obtain osseous tissue regeneration, treatment methods referred to as guided bone regeneration are used which utilize the mechanical, chemical, and biological properties of materials.Eighteen white rabbits were used. Under general anesthesia, a 5 mm in diameter defect was created transcutaneously in the femur trochanter major. The rabbits were divided into three groups depending on the type of the intraosseous defect (ID) treatment: in group I...
