Abstract

The aim of the study was to evaluate bone formation at 6 months in case of Alloplast (β-TCP) bone graft material. Socket grafting was done with Alloplast (β-TCP) and bone core was taken during osteotomy preparation for histological examination. For histological evaluation, tissues processing was done using standard protocol, wherein, tissue sections of 4-micron were fixed with Hematoxylin and Eosin stains. At 10X, thick bundles of collagen fibers were seen encircling newly formed mature bony trabeculae. Very mild diffuse inflammatory infiltrate was seen and large areas showing new bone formation with entrapped osteocytes within the osteocytic lacunae at higher magnification (40X) were also seen. β-TCP shows mature bone formation at 6 months and aids in regeneration.
