Biomimicry has been introduced as a term for innovations inspired by nature [1]. Such innovations may appear in almost every part of modern society. This review on the effects of enamel matrix proteins on the formation of cementum and the development of emdogain for regeneration of periodontal tissues lost due to periodontitis shows an example of biomimicry in dentistry. Findings from clinical and laboratory investigations are summarized and the biological basis for enamel matrix-induced periodontal regeneration is discussed.
仿生学已被引入作为受自然启发的创新的术语[1]。此类创新可能出现在现代社会的几乎每个领域。这篇关于牙釉质基质蛋白对牙骨质形成的影响以及用于牙周炎所致牙周组织再生的Emdogain（釉基质蛋白衍生物）开发的综述展示了牙科领域的一个仿生学实例。总结了临床和实验室研究的结果，并讨论了釉基质诱导牙周再生的生物学基础。
