Abstract
Materials And Methods:
Examples of defects including mandibular continuity defects, preprosthetic atrophic alveolar ridge deficiencies, traumatic defects, and maxillary clefts were included.
Results:
All patients demonstrated osseous regeneration stimulated by rhBMP-2.
Conclusion:
rhBMP-2 is successful in regenerating bone in a variety of maxillofacial defects. In the future, rhBMP-2 will play a significant role in the treatment of bone deficiencies.
