| Summary: | Objective
This pilot study was designed to investigate the effect of new implant coating material on postoperative bone healing process.
Study Design
experimental formula of flax oil-based implant coating was prepared.Twelve (12) white New Zealand male rabbits were randomly distributed into four groups (n=3). Surgery was performed to prepare 2mm hole in the zygomatic bone. The right side was filled with the test material (test group). whereas the hole in the left side of the same animal was left material free. Bone healing process was investigated after 3,7,14, and 21 days.
Results
New growth of normal bone explained by active bone apposition was observed in the test operation area in the marrow space after three days, less postoperative inflammation was observed explained by less inflammatory cells in the operation area.
Conclusıons
The new formula could represent a promising implant coating material for better bone healing process and hence faster osseointegration.
