The Effect of Tetracycline in Degradation and Permeability of Collagen Membrane
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the histological impact of treatment with tetracycline (TTC) solution of two layers collagen membranes (CMs) bio-degradation, in ridge preservation technique (RPT). Additionally, secondary objectives were to evaluate the effect of TTC on bacterial colonization and inflammatory response. This is a randomized simple-blind clinical trial. Consecutive patients referred to the Department of Periodontology at Universitat Internacional de Catalunya (Barcelona, Spain), between November 2009 and April 2011, were included in the study. This study was based on data collected from 20 surgical sites in 10 systemically healthy patients requiring 2 extractions with SPT. Before starting the surgery, the two teeth of each selected patient were randomized in two groups. The test group underwent RPT with CMs embedded with TTC solution (CMs TTC), and the control group was performed without TTC solution (CMs NO TTC). Randomization was performed using SPSS software (version 18, SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). In the test group, both membranes were first dipped for 5 minutes in TTC solution (50 mg/ml). This involved the use of 250 mg tablets of TTC and 5 ml of saline that were mixed in a sterile trough. A sample of the membrane used in each SPT was retained as a negative control sample. The membrane sample was retrieved 7 days after initial surgery. At 14 days the suture was removed and a new control was performed within 1 month. A sample from the negative control, test and control group was analyzed from each patient. The specimens were fixed in a 10% formalin solution, dehydrated in a series of alcohols, embedded in paraffin, and sectioned in 4-5μ. The sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and examined with an Olympus BH-2 optical microscope. The stained sections were photographed with a digital camera mounted on an optical microscope at magnification (x100, x200 and x400). According to the findings of the present study, we can conclude that CMs exhibit rapid degradation when exposed to the oral environment. Histological interpretation suggests that CMs immersed in 50mg/ml TTC solution delay the CM degradation when exposed to the oral environment. Statistical evaluation did not show any difference in bacterial colonization and inflammatory response, but the findings may also be affected by the limited sample size.
The limits of the present study are the absence of histomorphometric analysis, the sample size, and the lack of a long-term evaluation with clinical evidence of the advantages of this technique. More clinical studies in humans are require to confirm the effect of TTC in CMs degradation before we can make recommendations.

The main objective of this study was to evaluate the histological impact of treatment with tetracycline (TTC) solution of two layers collagen membranes (CMs) bio-degradation, in ridge preservation technique (RPT).
Time Frame: One week after the surgery, a sample of the expose membrane was obtained. The sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and examined with an Olympus BH-2 optical microscope.
|
After 1 week, a sample of expose membrane was obtained.
The bio-degradation of membrane was evaluated with a qualitative scale: 1) intact membrane, 2) partial degradation, 3) complete degradation.
|
One week after the surgery, a sample of the expose membrane was obtained. The sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and examined with an Olympus BH-2 optical microscope.
