Clinical response of hard tissue replacement (HTR) polymer as an implant material in oral surgery patients.
This study evaluated the performance of a synthetic implant material, Hard Tissue Replacement Polymer, for: (1) ease of handling, (2) compatibility with bone and soft tissue, (3) stability of augmentation over time, and (4) development of untoward effects. HTR (a registered trademark of HTR Sciences, a division of United States Surgical Corporation, Norwalk, CT 06856) was implanted into 34 patients by means of five different surgical procedures. The material was found to be easy to manipulate during surgery. Tissue and bone compatibility, defined as absence of inflammation, was present in 32/34 surgical sites (94%). In extraction sites during the 18-month follow-up, no measurable decrease in bone height or width was seen. One patient with a large periodontal endodontic defect developed a post-operative infection necessitating extraction of the tooth. No induction of bone was seen in response to placement of HTR material.
