„Osteobiol” and other bone graft materials used in Hungary

Irodalmi összefoglalás

Abstract

In the fi rst part of a series of publications in connection with different bone graft materials we review the literature by hungarian
authors in the topic. In the last 10 years (2001–2011) 12 articles were published in the Fogorvosi Szemle and 11
articles in other Hungarian journals. 34 articles were published by Hungarian authors in foreign journals. These articles
present results with autologous bone, bovine xenografts and synthetic bone graft materials.
The literature concludes that β-tricalcium phosphate and all previously mentioned materials present satisfactory results
in bone augmentation procedures. Based on histological and histomorphometrical analysis in the case of large bony
defects (large cysts, sinus elevation) the use of β-tricalcium phosphate ensures better long term results in terms of „rebuilding”
of the bone.
We present a bone graft material new in Hungary: „Osteobiol”, which differs from other bone graft materials in the sense
it is a mixture of porcine bone and collagen. The authors summerize the material science of different bone graft materials
including „Osteobiol”.
