Bioinductive biomaterials for periodontal regeneration / 中华口腔医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Periodontal regeneration is a great challenge faced by clinical treatment, and traditional therapies are not effective in regenerating periodontal tissues. Bioinductive biomaterials are materials that are able to induce the regeneration of damaged tissues, and they can induce the migration of stem cells or precursor cells to the defect site to proliferate, differentiate for tissue regeneration. For example, the osteoinductive biomaterials are able to induce regeneration of alveolar bone. In this review, the writer combined the recent advances of both clinical and scientific field, and summarize the application of bioinductive biomaterials includingautogenous bone, human derived growth factors, enamel matrix proteins and platelet-rich fibrin.
