Notes:
This studied determined the clinical effect of antibiotic use at the site of bonedefect restoration in patients with osteoporosis, using tooth ash and plaster of Paris inovariectomized rats. Forty-eight rats were assigned to four groups randomly and eachgroup was further divided into 4 and 8 weeks after implantation. Histologic sections ofthe defects were obtained after surgery for histomorphometric analysis. Comparing eachweek, a significant difference was seen in bone formation by 4 weeks. Compared tocontrols, new bone formation increased significantly with tooth ash and saline, tooth ashand gentamicin, and tooth ash and gentamicin after ovariectomy. Tooth ash and salineresulted in the best bone formation. The degree of new bone formation was slightlylower when tooth ash and gentamicin were used compared to when tooth ash and salinewere used. When tooth ash and gentamicin were compared according to ovariectomy,bone formation was significantly inhibited by ovariectomy at 4 weeks, while nosignificant difference was seen at 8 weeks
