Abstract

Biocompatibility and osteogenic potential of two calcium phosphate cements (G-5 and G-6) and Super-EBA were investigated by subcutaneous and intraosseous implantation in 90 rats. Reactions were studied microscopically at 15, 30, and 60 days after implantation. Super-EBA was well tolerated by both soft and hard tissues. G-5 was highly biocompatible with resorption and bone replacement at intraosseous implantation sites. G-6 promoted moderate inflammation and a foreign body giant cell response over the 60-day study period. None of the materials elicited osteogenesis or dystrophic calcification at the subcutaneous implantation sites.
