Abstract

BMPs are multi-functional growth factors which are members of the transforming growth factor-beta super family and their ability is that plays a pivotal roll in inducing bone. About 18 BMP family members have been identified and characterized. Among of them, BMP-2 and BMP-7 have significant importance in bone development. In this case reports, patients of maxillary sinus graft were received who visited LivingWell Dental Hospital. We focused on the results of the surgical intervention. We suggest that new strategy of treatment used to rhBMP-2 and beta-TCP scaffold for patients of sinus graft. The purpose of this paper is to give a brief overview of BMPs and to critically review the clinical data currently available on rhBMP-2 and synthetic bone scaffold.
