Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of nano-biomedicine, and in particular to a composite material for alveolar bone repair and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] After tooth extraction, the local alveolar ridge will undergo remodeling or absorption, resulting in a decrease in bone mass in the defect area, affecting denture restoration and implant placement. In severe cases, it can also cause atrophy of the surrounding soft tissue, affecting the quality of life.
[0003] Currently, the primary clinical treatment for this condition is guided bone regeneration (GBR) technology. It primarily combines a soft tissue barrier membrane with a bone filler material, utilizing the space created by the barrier membrane to allow osteoblasts or vascular endothelial cells to grow in while simultaneously isolating the overlying non-osteoblastic soft tissue cells from invading. This type of barrier membrane primarily consists of an absorbable collagen membrane, whose primary drawbacks are poor mechanical properties, rapid degradation, and an inability to maintain a stable bone formation space. The bone filler material utilizes its osteoconductive properties to provide a biological scaffold for the host's bone tissue, thereby promoting bone regeneration. This type of material is typically selected from autologous bone, allogeneic bone, and synthetic ceramic materials, and is provided in the form of granules or blocks. The disadvantages of this type of material are poor plasticity and easy dispersion, making it inconvenient for doctors to operate. Furthermore, the degradation rate does not match the rate of new bone formation, resulting in a prolonged foreign body reaction and considerable discomfort for patients. Existing bone filling materials have the following defects: (1) Existing bone filling materials cannot provide independent bone formation space and need to be used in conjunction with soft tissue barrier membranes, which results in high surgical costs and cumbersome operations; (2) The soft tissue barrier membranes required by existing bone filling materials have poor mechanical properties and degrade quickly, and cannot stably maintain the bone formation space; (3) Existing bone filling materials have poor plasticity and are easy to disperse, making them inconvenient to operate during use; (4) The degradation rate of existing bone filling materials does not match the rate of new bone formation, resulting in a long foreign body reaction time and poor ability to guide bone tissue regeneration.
[0004] Based on the shortcomings of existing bone filling materials, an ideal alveolar bone repair material should have the following characteristics: ① It has a specific tissue barrier function and certain mechanical properties, can form an independent and stable bone formation space, and provide a good scaffold environment for alveolar bone repair; ② It can be shaped at will without overflowing, which is convenient for clinicians to operate; ③ The degradation rate matches the bone formation rate, enhances the ability to guide bone tissue regeneration, and improves the patient experience.

[0097] Table 2 is the test results of the moisture content of the composite materials obtained by combining the materials in Examples 1-3
[0098] name Moisture content / % Example 1 2.1 Example 2 1.3 Example 3 1.6
[0099] It can be seen from the test results in Table 2 that the composite material for alveolar bone repair prepared in the present invention has a sufficient water content and can meet the requirements of long-term stable storage.
[0100] 2. Physical performance test:
[0101] (1) pH test: The products obtained in Examples 1-3 were added to an extract (purified water) at a ratio of 0.1 g / ml, and the mixture was extracted at (37±1)°C for 72 hours. The supernatant was taken to obtain a test solution, and the pH value was determined according to the pH determination method in General Chapter 0631 of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (Part 4, 2020 Edition). The results were between 6 and 8, which met the standard. The test results of Examples 1-3 are shown in Table 3 below.
[0102] Table 3 is the pH test results of the products obtained in Examples 1-3 of the present invention
[0103]
[0104]
[0105] It can be seen from the test results in Table 3 that the pH value of the composite material for alveolar bone repair prepared in the present invention meets the requirements.
[0106] (2) Dense layer tensile strength test: The dense layer of the composite material for alveolar bone repair prepared in Examples 1-3 was cut out and cut into 1 cm*2 cm membrane sheets, and then a universal testing machine was used for tensile testing. The speed of the testing machine was set to 10 nm / min. The machine was started and a tensile test was performed. The test results are shown in Table 4 below.
[0107] Table 4 shows the tensile strength test results of the dense layer in the composite materials obtained in Examples 1-3
[0108] name Tensile strength / N Example 1 14.2 Example 2 14.4 Example 3 14.1 Absorbable collagen membrane 8.6
[0109] The dense layer of the present invention acts as a soft tissue barrier, while also providing an independent space for new tissue to form bones. This type of soft tissue barrier membrane requires suture to the native tissue during implantation and maintains a specific post-implantation morphology, thus requiring a certain tensile strength. As can be seen from the test data in Table 4, the dense layer of the present invention exhibits superior mechanical properties to absorbable collagen membranes.
[0110] (3) Compressive strength test: The composite materials for alveolar bone repair prepared in Examples 1-3 were subjected to a compressive strength test. The test results are shown in Table 5 below.
[0111] Table 5 shows the compressive strength test results of the composite materials prepared in Examples 1-3.
[0112] name Compressive strength / Mpa Example 1 5.1 Example 2 4.7 Example 3 4.9 Hydroxyapatite material 5.2 PLGA filler 2.1
[0113] The composite material for alveolar bone repair prepared by the present invention bonds organic polymer materials with hydroxyapatite for the purpose of improving its degradability and plasticity. This approach may have the risk of decreased mechanical properties, but from the test data in Table 5 above, it can be seen that the compressive strength of the product prepared by the present invention is not significantly lower than that of the hydroxyapatite material.
[0114] 3. Biological evaluation research:
[0115] (1) Cytotoxicity: The composite materials prepared in Examples 1-3 were extracted at a ratio of 0.1 g / ml (the extract was MEM culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum) at 37°C for 24 hours, and then a cytotoxicity test was performed with reference to the MTT method in GB / T16886.5. The relative cell viability values of Examples 1-3 were 87.9%, 86.4%, and 88.2%, respectively, indicating no potential cytotoxicity.
[0116] (2) Delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction: The products prepared in Examples 1-3 were respectively prepared into extracts with 0.9% sodium chloride injection and cottonseed oil. The extracts were intradermally injected into 10 albino guinea pigs, and then occluded with patching to induce delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction. Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 Middle markers: 1 - head, 2 - 0.1 ml intradermal injection site, 3 - hairless medial shoulder blade, 4 - tail.
[0117] Conclusion: The animals produced a reaction with a level greater than "0" within 24 hours and 48 hours of observation after stimulation, indicating that the product prepared by the present invention did not induce delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction in albino guinea pigs.
[0118] (3) In vitro degradation performance study: After soaking the materials obtained in Examples 1-3 with physiological saline, the loose layer was compressed and placed in a conical flask filled with simulated body fluid (extraction ratio 0.1 g / ml). The material was placed at 37°C and in a constant temperature shaker at 100 rpm. The material changes were observed every week (because nano-inorganic materials cannot simulate in vitro degradation performance, the end time of degradation is the completion of degradation of medical polymer materials). The test results are shown in Table 6 below.
[0119] Table 6 shows the results of in vitro degradation performance test
[0120]
[0121]
[0122] Compared to natural inorganic materials, which primarily provide inorganic nutrients to newly formed bone and are slowly absorbed, their degradation cycle is over two years. Compared to existing soft tissue barrier membranes, existing soft tissue barrier membranes degrade rapidly, unable to maintain long-term bone formation, and their degradation rate is mismatched with the bone formation rate. As shown in the data in Table 6, the composite material for alveolar bone repair prepared by the present invention has a degradation cycle of between 14 and 20 weeks, while the alveolar bone repair cycle is typically around three months. Therefore, the present invention provides a new material that matches the bone formation rate of newly formed bone, further promoting alveolar bone growth.
[0123] The above preferred embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Any obvious changes or modifications derived from the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
