Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Some studies have shown that topical application of zoledronic acid and topical application of silver nanoparticles can promote bone formation, but the difference between two methods has not been reported. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of topical application of zoledronic acid versus topical application of silver nanoparticles on rabbit tooth extraction socket immediate implantation of titanium screw bonding. METHODS: Twenty-four New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into zoledronic acid and silver nanoparticles groups (n=12/group). After removing four incisors of the upper and lower jaws, the mixture of nanometer silver and nanometer hydroxyapatite and nanometer zoledronic acid hydroxyapatite were respectively filled in the tooth extraction pit of the two groups, and titanium screw was implanted at the same time. The isolated specimens of the upper and lower mandibles were taken at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after surgery. The data reflecting the osseointegration around the implant were obtained through gross observation, torque test, bone density test and histomorphological observation. The study was approved by the Ethical Committee of the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University in December 2015, approval No. Z2015-021-1. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The test results of torque mechanics showed that the average torque peak value of all titanium nails increased with the extension of time (the average value of torque peak value) and reached the maximum value at 12 weeks (the average value of torque peak value). At 4, 8 and 12 weeks after surgery, the torque peak value of titanium screw in the zoledronic acid group was higher than that in the silver nanoparticles group, and the stability of titanium screw in zoledronic acid group was better than that in silver nanoparticles group, but the difference was insignificant (P>0.05). (2) General observation and histological observation showed that at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after surgery, the hardness and structure of bone around the implants in the zoledronic acid group were significantly better than those in the silver nanoparticles group. (3) Bone mineral density analysis results showed that, at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after surgery, the gray value of bone tissue around the titanium screw in the zoledronic acid group was higher than that in the silver nanoparticles group at the same period (P>0.05). (4) These results suggest that the osseointegration of immediate implantation using nanometer zoledronic acid hydroxyapatite is better than that of the mixture of nanometer silver and nanometer hydroxyapatite.
