Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and the glucocorticoid dexamethasone combined with a collagen carrier matrix (CM) induced regeneration of the periodontium in monkeys. Regeneration was stringently defined as: (1) new cementum, (2) new supra-crestal bone extending coronally from the residual alveolar interdental septum and (3) functionally-oriented periodontal ligament fibers attaching new cementum to new bone. A single application of PDGF/dexamethasone/CM or CM was placed in debrided lesions of experimental periodontitis displaying 3-5 mm of attachment loss associated with horizontal and angular bony defects. Regeneration, judged histologically by these criteria and quantified by computer assisted histomorphometry after 4 weeks, was present only in PDGF/dexamethasone/CM treated lesions and not in those treated with CM or debridement alone. PDGF/dexamethasone/CM induced 5-fold more new cementum and ligament, and 7-fold more supra-crestal bone than control treatments. The presence of substantial amounts of regenerated periodontium including increased height of the alveolar bone; fill of vertically resorbed interdental alveolar septa in PDGF/dexamethasone/CM treated lesions suggests that this combination may provide a new therapeutic agent for the regeneration of lesions of periodontitis associated with horizontal as well as angular bony defects. |
