[The treatment of infected odontogenic jaw defects with demineralized bone allograft]

Reparative osteogenesis of infected mandibular defects with these defects filled with mineral-free allobone, impregnated with a complex antiseptic solution, was studied in 36 rabbits by morphologic methods. Good results of such treatment permitted using this plastic material in 79 patients with cavitary odontogenic mandibular defects. 8-12 months after surgery osseous tissue structure at the site of defect did not differ from the adjacent tissue. Mineral-free bone tissue impregnated with complex antiseptic solution holds good promise in transplantation surgery.
