Performance of two bone substitutes of novel cotton-like β-TCP/PDLGA and granular β-TCP on bone regeneration in the femoral bone defect of the Beagle dogs

This study aimed to clarify whether novel cotton-like composite made of β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) and poly(Dl-lactide-co-glycolide) (PDLGA) has a different effect on in vivo bone regeneration after bone defect than that of granular β-TCP. Five male Beagle dogs served as subjects. Cortical and m...
