Biocompatibility of a Resilient Resin

A Histological Study in Rats

抄録

The purpose of this study was to verify histologically the biocompatibility of a resilient resin (Softic 49, Kerr Sybron) when placed into surgical osseous cavities and into subcutaneous spaces, in rats. Fibrous connective tissue was subsequently observed in close association with the subcutaneous and intra-osseous resin implants. Near the material, and in contact with the fibrous capsule, newly formed osseous trabeculae were seen. In both sites, there was a mild inflammatory reaction. It was therefore concluded that the material has slightly irritant properties.
