Effect of organic silicon, methylsulfonylmethane, and glucosamine sulfate in mandibular bone defects in rats.
Microscopy Research and Technique 2017 November
Organic silicon (OS), glucosamine sulfate (GS), and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) have been related to bone and connective tissue health and have been considered as basic therapy for osteoarthrosis disorders. Therefore, the aim was to analyze the effect of the association of these three components in mandibular bone defects in rats. Nine rats were used for histocompatibility test. In each animal was implanted the composition (70% OS, 15% GS, 15% MSM) and gutta percha (control) under the dorsal subcutaneous tissue. The samples were collected at 7, 14, and 21 days post-surgery and inflammatory events analyzed. In sequence, the composition was engrafted in mandibular bone defects of nine rats; bone defects without treatment were the control group. Analyses were performed at 7, 14, and 28 days post-surgery and samples were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). For the histocompatibility test, both groups had a moderate inflammatory process at 7 days post-surgery and mild inflammatory process at 14 and 21 days. But in SEM analysis, the composition promotes an extensive reabsorption in cortical and crest alveolar bone, and great tooth root reabsorption. In conclusion, although the composition had positive result in the histocompatibility test, its direct application in mandibular bone defects caused intense resorption.
