Abstract
Objectives: Traditional guided tissue regeneration procedures use particulate bone graft materials and occlusive membranes with the primary aim of reconstitution of the supporting periodontal tissues. Currently, the Food and Drug Administration has cleared only four treatment modalities for true periodontal regeneration. These materials are autogenous bone, demineralized freeze dried bone allograft, LANAP (Millennium Dental Technologies INC, Cerritos, CA) and Emdogain (Institut Straumann AG, Basel, Switzerland). The biologically inactive nature of many commercially available bone graft materials provides an opportunity for the addition of certain biologic materials to enhance the healing response. The development of an adequate carrier for biologic agents is a crucial step in the creation of a bioactive graft material. This experiment uses Emdogain (Institut Straumann AG, Basel, Switzerland) to study the specific characteristics of protein binding and release on three different commonl
