Vertical bone augmentation is an important challenge in dental implantology. Existing vertical bone augmentation techniques, along with bone grafting materials, have achieved certain clinical progress but continue to have numerous limitations. In order to evaluate the possibility of using biomaterials to develop bone substitutes, medical devices and/or new bone grafting techniques for vertical bone augmentation, it is essential to establish clinically relevant animal models to investigate their biocompatibility, mechanical properties, applicability and safety. The present review discusses recent animal experiments related to vertical bone augmentation. In addition, surgical protocols for establishing relevant preclinical models with various animal species were reviewed. The present study aims to provide guidance for selecting experimental animal models of vertical bone augmentation.
垂直骨增量是牙种植学中的一项重要挑战。现有的垂直骨增量技术以及骨移植材料已取得了一定的临床进展,但仍存在诸多局限性。为了评估使用生物材料开发用于垂直骨增量的骨替代物、医疗器械和/或新的骨移植技术的可能性,建立与临床相关的动物模型以研究其生物相容性、力学性能、适用性和安全性至关重要。本综述讨论了近期与垂直骨增量相关的动物实验。此外,还综述了使用各种动物建立相关临床前模型的手术方案。本研究旨在为选择垂直骨增量的实验动物模型提供指导。
