[Rational (injection) of calcitonin for stimulation of the mandibular reparative regeneration]
Abstract:
This investigation permit to detect, that first resorption stage of the mandible reparative regeneration terminats after fracture 5 days later. Calcitonine injection during 5 days after fracture i.e. in paratiroid hormone dependent stage distorts normal reparative process. Rats with traumatic osteomielitis become 1.5 times more and rats with normal regeneration become 3 times less. Injection calcitonine in KT-dependent stage, i.e. in 6-11 days after fracture increases quantity of rats with normal regeneration in 7 times and decreases quantity animals with traumatic osteomielitis on 50%. There's recommendation to inject KT from 6 days after trauma.

Hormones That Influence Osteoblasts and/or Maintain the Matrix
Several hormones are necessary for controlling bone growth and maintaining the bone matrix. The pituitary gland secretes growth hormone (GH), which, as its name implies, controls bone growth. This happens in several ways: first, it triggers chondrocyte...
