Periodontal tissue regeneration using fibroblast growth factor-2: randomized controlled phase II clinical trial.

Periodontal tissue regeneration using fibroblast growth factor-2: randomized controlled phase II clinical trial.

The options for medical use of signaling molecules as stimulators of tissue regeneration are currently limited. Preclinical evidence suggests that fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 can promote periodontal regeneration. This study aimed to clarify the activity of FGF-2 in stimulating regeneration of p...
