Osteoneomorphogenesis biostimulated by Combined Magnetic Field

Objectives: Combined Magnetic Fields (CMF) are commonly used in orthopedic and traumatologic rehabilitative therapy. They are also usually applied in rheumatologic and dermatologic therapies to support connective tissue adversely affected by pathology. The aim of the present study is to verify and to underline the treatment efficacy of CMF in persons who have undergone implant surgery associated with bone reconstuction.

In orthopedic surgery, magnetic fields are used to promote osteogenetic stimulation, especially in complex fractures or in patients experiencing difficulties with bone mineralization.

With the Magneto Electric Therapy (MET) and the Combined Magnetic Fields (CMF), after the selection of a specific sign for each kind of tissue, therapeutic results may be increased.

The union of MET and CMF, together with the PBR (Primary Bone Reparation) implant system, makes it possible to obtain important results and a reliable answer to the problem of reconstructive osteogenesis in a shorter time.

Methods: 458 patients of both genders, aged between 35 and 72 yrs, underwent implant surgery associated with GBR, according to the protocol of the PBR implant system. 1024 fixtures were inserted by means of the TMI^® implant system (Pressing Dental, RSM).

The MET and CMF (MFI Italy) were applied to all patients for 74 days.

Osteogenesis was radiologically controlled after 30, 60, 90, and 120 days. All implants were loaded in 120 days.

Results: All those who underwent implant therapy with GBR, and were treated with the combination of MET and CMF, showed complete mineralization in a shorter period of time than that commonly reported in these cases.

Conclusions: The combined use of MET and CMF, together with the PBR implant system, can ameliorate and strengthen the physiologic mechanisms of bone reparation.
