Bone-Forming Capabilities of a Newly Developed NanoHA Composite Alloplast Infused with Collagen: A Pilot Study in the Sheep Mandible
Figure 4
Histologic sections for the (a) control and (b) experimental block materials placed on the lateral aspect of the mandible. The histologic sections revealed the perforations performed in the mandibular lateral aspect cortical (arrows). Higher magnification of the (c) control and (d) experimental blocks showed that bone ingrowth occurred throughout the volume of the experimental block material, and little ingrowth occurred for the control block material. Smaller amounts of synthetic material were also observed for the experimental block relative to the control block material.
