Abstract (original English)

Purpose In patients with jaw bone atrophy, dental implant therapy requires bone augmentation on the alveolar ridge. Common methods are autologous bone transplantation or bone substitutes. The latter technique is less surgically invasive because it does not require bone harvesting; however, blood supply from the surrounding tissues and local differentiation of osteoblasts are not guaranteed, so adequate bone regeneration for dental implant therapy is often not achieved. Therefore, at our hospital we introduced a bone regenerative medicine technique that uses adipose stem cells (ASCs) from adipose tissue. The new approach is less surgically invasive and appears to have a better effect on bone regeneration. The current retrospective study aimed to demonstrate the efficacy of ASC transplantation in patients who underwent alveolar ridge bone augmentation at our hospital. Methods We compared medical records, postoperative radiographic findings, and histological results from patients treated between January 2018 and March 2022 by augmentation of the jaw bone with bone substitutes (carbonate apatite) mixed with ASCs (ASCs+ group) and those treated with bone substitutes (carbonate apatite) alone (ASCs- group). Results After 6 months, the survival rate of augmented bone and the gray scale value in dental cone beam computed tomography (a bone density index) were significantly higher in th

What this study does not prove

  • • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
  • • Without an adequate control group, treatment effects cannot be separated from other factors.
