Abstract

The purpose of this study was: to develop a model for testing oral bone transplantation; to study the healing of a surgically produced defect with and without the transplantation of strongly allogeneic cancellous bones and marrow; and to determine the fate of the allogenic grafts. Twenty-eight CBA/H mice served as experimental animals. Intra-oral defects were made and in 14 of the animals strongly allogenic cancellous bone and marrow were transplanted. The 14 remaining animals served as controls. It was observed that the healing was delayed in the experimental animals as compared to the controls and that the grafted material was rejected in from two to three weeks.
