Comparison between different isoelectric points of biodegradable gelatin sponges incorporating β‐tricalcium phosphate and recombinant human fibroblast growth factor‐2 for ridge augmentation: A preclinical study of saddle‐type defects in dogs

ConclusionsThese findings suggest that in ridge augmentation of saddle ‐type defects, controlled release of rhFGF‐2 induces notably more alveolar bone formation than does short‐term application of rhFGF‐2.
