[Titanium implants integration into mandible distract regenerate]

In experiment on 20 rabbits with distract regenerates in the region of mandible body osteotomy the correlation between the efficacy of titanium implants (introduced into regenerate) integration and the degree of regenerate osseous material differentiation was investigated. Implants integration fixed in 7 and 20 days after distraction process discontinuance passed considerably more efficiently than in rabbits with implants fixed 1 day after distraction process discontinuance. It expressed itself with intensive development and maturation of osseous regenerate around implants and with tendency to "solder" of newly formed bone and implant's surface, i.e. to osteointegration. Higher the level of newly formed osseous material maturity in the implantation moment - more effective implant integration will be.
