Microvascular Response in the Periosteum Following Mucoperiosteal Flap Surgery in Dogs: Angiogenesis and Bone Resorption and Formation

Abstract

The morphology of the mucoperiosteal vascular plexus changed with bone metabolism and these changes contributed to transport of substances involved in periodontal repair.

Single Flap Approach With and Without Guided Tissue Regeneration and a Hydroxyapatite Biomaterial in the Management of Intraosseous Periodontal Defects

“…The flap can be easily stabilized to the undetached papilla optimizing wound closure for primary intention healing. Moreover, leaving a great volume of supracrestal gingival tissues intact may better preserve the interdental vascular supply 20‐22 . Wound stabilization and preservation of an intact interdental papilla may also contribute to improved preservation of esthetics 9 .…”

Clinical and Systemic Effects of Periodontally Accelerated Osteogenic Orthodontics: A Pilot Study

“…They are based on a minimally invasive approach with a flap elevation only on one side (buccal or lingual) leaving the soft tissues on the opposite side intact, facilitating flap repositioning and suturing with the undetached oral papilla thus optimizing wound closure for primary intention. Moreover, by leaving a great volume of supracrestal soft tissues intact, better preservation of the blood supply in the interdental area may eventually occur (Binderman et al, 2001;Nobuto et al, 2003Nobuto et al, , 2005.…”

Tooth Movement in Demineralized Area by Etchant in Rabbits

“…RAP can be found at the bone surface even when a simple flap is elevated 32) . Surgical damage approaching the periosteum causes not only bone formation and resorption but also angiogenesis and changes in hemodynamics that contri bute to periodontal tissue regeneration and circulation of associated substances 33) . So based on such findings, more active RAP can be expected to be generated when the bone is demineralized after flap elevation.…”
