ABSTRACT
Guided bone regeneration (GBR) plays a crucial role in the augmentation of alveolar bone, especially in cases of dental implants. The main principle behind using membranes in guided tissue regeneration (GTR) is to prevent epithelial downgrowth as well as connective tissue on the root surface. However, the membranes lack some major properties, such as osteogenic and antimicrobial properties. Magnesium (Mg) is one of the biodegradable materials that is gaining interest because of its favourable mechanical properties and biocompatibility. It also possesses pro-osteogenic properties and significant inhibition of biofilm formation and maturation. These features have attracted increasing interest in using magnesium oxide nanoparticles in GBR membrane applications. This systematic review assesses the osteogenic potential of magnesium oxide nanoparticles in periodontal bone regeneration. The literature search used PubMed, PubMed Central, Medline, and Cochrane databases to examine systematic reviews published till March 2023. Seven articles were included based on the selection criteria. We included all in vitro and in vivo clinical studies based on the osteogenic potential of magnesium oxide nanoparticles in periodontal bone regeneration. The seven studies provided evidence that magnesium oxide nanoparticles, when incorporated in any substrate, showed higher osteogenic potential in terms of higher alkaline phosphatase levels, bone volume fraction, and bone mineral density. The optimum concentration of magnesium oxide can be an ideal additive to various substrates to promote bone regeneration. Because most of the studies were conducted on calvarial defects, further studies should focus only on bone regeneration related to periodontal regeneration.
