The overall aim is to promote bone regeneration, using Aastrom's proprietary Adult Stem Cell Therapy (AST) developed collaboratively with the University of Michigan, to enable placement of dental implants in patients who lack adequate alveolar bone. This project addresses specifically the placement of dental implants following bone regenerative sinus floor augmentation. This novel therapy mitigates the risks of other therapies, providing additional benefits of adequate cell numbers for high quality bone regeneration, and has the potential to become the new standard of care. In Aastrom's patented manufacturing technology, iliac bone marrow aspirates are expanded ex-vivo to enrich for adult multipotent cells (Bone Repair Cells- BRC) capable of regenerating bone and blood vessels. BRC will then be mixed with bone matrix graft extender, beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), before their implantation into the regenerative site.
