The aim of the present study was to evaluate if the powder gel composite showed slow release of rhBMP-2 and if it could act as an effective rhBMP-2 carrier for implantation in host bone with a bone defect or poor bone quality. In addition, the rabbit tibia implantation model was used to determine if the powder gel composite loaded with rhBMP-2 could strengthen the osseointegration of a dental implant.","tracks":[]}
