Effects of bone morphogenetic protein‐6 on periodontal wound healing/regeneration in supraalveolar periodontal defects in dogs

Abstract

Surgical application of BMP-6/ACS onto critical-size supraalveolar defects enhanced periodontal wound healing/regeneration, in particular cementogenesis including a functionally oriented periodontal ligament; the low BMP-6 0.25 mg/ml concentration apparently providing the most effective dose.
