A biomaterial-mediated immune response is a critical factor to determine the cell fate as well as the tissue-regenerative outcome. Although piezoelectric-membranes have attracted considerable interest in the field of guided bone regeneration thanks to their biomimetic electroactivity, the influence of their different surface-charge polarities on the immune-osteogenic microenvironment remains obscure. The present study aimed at investigating the interaction between piezoelectric poly (vinylidene fluoridetrifluoroethylene) [P (VDF-TrFE)] membranes with different surface polarities (negative or positive) and macrophage response, as well as their subsequent influence on osteogenesis from an immunomodulating perspective. Specifically, the morphology, wettability, crystal phase, piezoelectric performance, and surface potential of the synthetic P (VDF-TrFE) samples were systematically characterized. In addition, RAW 264.7 macrophages were seeded onto differently charged P (VDF-TrFE) surfaces, and the culture supernatants were used to supplement cultures of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs) on the corresponding P (VDF-TrFE) surfaces. Our results revealed that oppositely charged surfaces had different abilities in modulating the macrophage-immune-osteogenic microenvironment. Negatively charged P (VDF-TrFE), characterized by the highest macrophage elongation effect, induced a switch in the phenotype of macrophages from M0 (inactivated) to M2 (anti-inflammatory), thus promoting the osteogenic differentiation of rBMSCs by releasing anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. Interestingly, positively charged P (VDF-TrFE) possessed pro-inflammatory properties to induce an M1 (pro-inflammatory) macrophage-dominated reaction, without compromising the subsequent osteogenesis as expected. In conclusion, these findings highlighted the distinct modulatory effect of piezoelectric-P (VDF-TrFE) membranes on the macrophage phenotype, inflammatory reaction, and consequent immune-osteogenic microenvironment depending on their surface-charge polarity. This study provides significant insight into the design of effective immunoregulatory materials for the guided bone regeneration application.

LAPONITE® (LAP) nanoplatelets were incorporated within a regenerated silk fibroin (RSF) microfibrous mat via electrospinning, which exhibited better cell adhesion and proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) than the pristine RSF ones.

The use of non-resorbable polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membranes is indicated for the treatment of large, non-self-containing bone defects, or multi-walled defects in the case of vertical augmentations. However, less is known about the molecular basis of the foreign body response to PTFE membranes. In the present study, the inflammatory tissue responses to a novel high-density PTFE (dPTFE) barrier membrane have preclinically been evaluated using the subcutaneous implantation model in BALB/c mice by means of histopathological and histomorphometrical analysis methods and immunohistochemical detection of M1- and M2-macrophages. A collagen membrane was used as the control material. The results of the present study demonstrate that the tissue response to the dPTFE membrane involves inflammatory macrophages, but comparable cell numbers were also detected in the implant beds of the control collagen membrane, which is known to be biocompatible. Although these data indicate that the analyzed dPTFE membrane is not fully bioinert, but its biocompatibility is comparable to collagen-based membranes. Based on its optimal biocompatibility, the novel dPTFE barrier membrane may optimally support bone healing within the context of guided bone regeneration (GBR).

Membrane fixation in guided bone regeneration (GBR) has been traditionally achieved using resorbable pins, titanium tacks or miniscrews. However, these techniques are marredwith a number of clinical challenges. This article presents the “SauFRa” technique, a novel technique for stabilization of resorbable membranes in both, single as well as multiple implant sites while avoiding the shortcomings of other suturing techniques described in literature. Furthermore, the technique also eliminates the possibility of complications observed when using resorbable pins, titanium tacks or miniscrews, such as damage to adjacent roots during insertion. The authors’ employed this technique in 89 patients (51 male and 35 female) and found no complications like tissue dehiscence, infection or graft migration.

Resumo O osso é um tecido conjuntivo especializado, vascularizado e dinâmico que se modifica ao longo do organismo. Quando lesado, possui uma capacidade única de regeneração e reparação sem a presença de cicatrizes, mas em algumas situações devido tamanho do defeito ósseo não se regenera por completo. Assim, se faz necessária a realização de procedimentos de regeneração óssea guiada. Para isso, o implantodontista deve conhecer as bases biológicas da regeneração óssea guiada alveolar e suas indicações. Nesta revisão foram abordadas indicações, vantagens e tipos de biomateriais utilizados para preenchimento do alvéolo dentário imediatamente após a extração dentária sempre que o objetivo for à reabilitação através da instalação de implantes. Mesmo este, biomateriais, apresentando inúmeras qualidades, estudos ainda devem ser feitos a fim de obter a cada dia, um material sintético compatível com o tecido ósseo perdido em quantidades adequadas sem necessitar de cirurgias extra-bucais.ABSTRACT Bone is a specialized vascularized connective tissue that dynamic changes throughout the body. When injured, it has a unique ability to regenerate and repair without the presence of scars, but in some situations due to size of the bone defect does not regenerate completely. Thus, it is necessary to perform guided bone regeneration procedures. For this, the implant dentistry must know the biological bases of alveolar guided bone regeneration and its indications. In this review were addressed indications, advantages and types of biomaterials used for filling the tooth socket immediately after the tooth extraction whenever the goal is rehabilitation through implants installation. Even this, biomaterials, having several qualities, further studies must be done to obtain each day, a synthetic material compatible with the bone tissue lost in proper amounts without the need of extra-oral surgery.
