Method for regenerating bone

a bone graft and bone technology, applied in the field of bone grafting, can solve the problems of limited clinical improvement, inability to secure the graft material in the graft site, and limited success of these bone grafts, so as to reduce both post-operative complications and surgery costs, prevent the migration of bone graft material, and improve the effect of outcom

Benefits of technology

Inventors have developed an improved way for dentists to treat patients who are missing teeth by providing them new ones from their own body called periranium (a type of plant). By placing these healthy roots near areas where there may be any problem they were trying to fix it can help healing up damaged parts more effectively without having to use another piece of equipment like prosthetic devices.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patented patents relates to improving the efficiency and accuracy of dentistry procedures while reducing patient disorders such as bleeding during orthodontic implants placement. Current methods involve either adding cellular growth factors like platelets onto the teeth themselves or attaching them directly to the roots where there may already exist hard-to-repair connections between the surrounding tissues. Additionally, previous attempts were made to fix temporary prosthetic devices within the affected region instead of covering it completely.

Embodiment Construction

[0028] This invention is a novel use of the patient's periosteum to supply a periodontal defect with cells capable of regenerating lost tissue. This invention covers the defect with vital regenerative cells and places those cells in immediate proximity to the site requiring regeneration. When using this invention the patient's periosteum is exposed using either a full thickness flap or a split thickness flap. The use of a full thickness flap keeps the periostium attached to the soft tissue. A split thickness flap leaves the periostium attached to the bone.

[0029]FIG. 1 outlines the normal anatomy of the support structures of a lower bicuspid. Number 1 identifies the attached gingiva which contains collagen fibers that attach the gingiva directly to bone identified as number 2. Number 3 identifies the mucogingival junction which is the point where the attached gingiva stops and the periosteum begins. In this schematic the periosteum (number 4) continues uninterrupted until the keratiniz

Abstract

The present invention relates to the methods of treating periodontal disease and bone resorption in the maxilla or mandible comprising the inversion of the adjacent periosteum. The adjacent periosteum is inverted in an effort place the proper regenerative cells in the area of tissue loss in a mammal in need thereof with the goal of regenerating lost periodontium and alveolar bone.
