EFFECTS OF PLASTER-OF-PARIS PARTICULATE IMPLANTS IN MANDIBULAR BONE CAVITY: AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY / 第二军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

This paper describes the experimental research on effects of plaster-of-Paris par-ticulate implants in mandibular bone cavity . Eighteen animals used in this experiment were divided into Groups A and B.Group A consisted of 9 rabbits and Group B, 9 dogs.In all the animals the right side of the mandible served as the experimental side and the left side, the control one.They were sacrificed for examination at 1, 3, 6 months after surgery. The experimental results show that the plaster-of Paris particulate implants in mandibular bone cavity were safe, tissue tolerant, absorbable and stimulative to bone formation.
