Benefits of technology

The present invention relates to a new type of guided bone regeneration membrane which helps improve bone formation during dental procedures. The membrane consists of two layers: one made from polylactide (PLA), designed to protect against soft tissue infection, and another coated with apatite and silicon dioxide particles, which enhance attachment to cells and promote bone growth. The membrane also contains continuous pores allowing nutrients to reach cells. It is produced using a process called electrospinning, making it easier to fit into the patient's mouth without causing discomfort or pain. Overall, this innovative membrane offers better results than existing options and may become more widely used in dental practice.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patent text is to develop a bioresorbable guided bone regeneration membrane that can promote bone regeneration and reconstruction more rapidly and reliably, by using a controlled release of silicon that genetically acts on cells to promote osteogenesis. This membrane should be effective in treating bone defects and should ideally be used in oral or maxillary surgery.

first embodiment

[0020]According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, such a guided bone regeneration membrane can be manufactured through the steps of electrospinning and soaking in a simulated body fluid (SBF). In the electrospinning step, a positive high voltage is applied to a polymer solution, and the resulting polymer solution is sprayed as fibers to a negatively charged collector.

[0021]A spinning solution for the formation of the PLA layer (PLA spinning solution) is prepared by dissolving a poly(lactic acid) in chloroform (CHCl3) or dichloromethane (DCM). The PLA spinning solution preferably has a poly (lactic acid) concentration of from 4 to 12 percent by weight for easy spinning. In this connection, the poly(lactic acid) generally has a molecular weight of from about 20×104 to about 30×104. For maintaining conditions for satisfactory spinning, the PLA spinning solution may further contain dimethylformamide (DMF) and / or methanol (CH3OH) in an amount up to about 50 percent by w...

Abstract

Disclosed is a guided bone regeneration membrane including a novel mechanism that effectively induces a bone reconstruction ability. The mechanism is provided by forming a bi-layered structure of a first nonwoven fabric layer containing a silicon-releasable calcium carbonate and a poly(lactic acid) as principal components and a second nonwoven fabric layer containing a poly(lactic acid) as a principal component; and coating the first nonwoven fabric layer with an apatite. The guided bone regeneration membrane is available by using a nonwoven fabric manufacturing technique through electrospinning and a simulated body fluid soaking technique.
