Abstract
BACKGROUND: The impact of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on the healing of soft tissues around dental implants was studied in a beagle model.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Beagle dogs were randomized to receive implants, followed by postoperative HBO therapy or not (n=10 per group). On postoperative days 3, 7, and 14, tissue specimens were paraffin-embedded and analyzed by hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining, as well as immunohistochemistry against CD31.
RESULTS: Scores for inflammation pathology based on hematoxylin-eosin staining and mean optical density of collagen fibers were significantly different between the HBO and control groups on postoperative days 3 and 7 (P<0.05), but not on day 14. Mean optical density due to anti-CD31 staining was significantly higher in the HBO group on postoperative days 3, 7, and 14 (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that HBO may promote early osteogenesis and soft tissue healing after implantation.
