Leigh E. Colby, DDS, MBA and Dave P. Watson, MSME

Published in the Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Conclusions: The results of this study confirm the hypothesis that healing processes following fully guided tooth bud ablation resulted in removal of targeted tooth bud tissues, complete molar agenesis, and trabecular new bone growth at 28-days post treatment.

Fully Guided Third Molar Tooth Bud Ablation in Pigs

Leigh E. Colby, DDS, MBA

Published in the Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Conclusions: The animal model developed for this study enabled the demonstration of a fully guided 3TBA protocol. The animal model and 3TBA procedure employed in this study appear to be appropriate for use in future long-term animal studies designed to demonstrate the efficacy of 3TBA for inducing molar agenesis.
