However, the number of patients with an alveolar bone that are not suitable for dental implant fixation have increased due to the growing number of elderly people in the population and the need for re-surgery. Thus, the present study was conducted to improve bone formation at a site that has bone defect or insufficient bone quality, and to evaluate dental implant osseointegration using hyaluronic acid, which is soluble and injectable, and a mixture of rhBMP-2 and β-TCP microsphere, which has well-established osteoconductivity and binds well with rhBMP-2.","tracks":[]}
