Comparison of PCL and PLC-BTCP 3D-printed membranes to a collagen membrane in a canine mandibular defect. (A,B): Surgical preparation of the site in order to create standardized defects, (length: 7 mm, height: 5 mm, depth: 5 mm) (C): Implantation of the bone grafting particulate materials, (D): placement of the various membranes fixed using titanium screws. Tissue morphology as demonstrated using Hematoxylin and eosin (E, H, K) stain and Goldner Trichrome stain (F,G,I,J,L,M) for collagen (E–G), PCL (H–J), PCL/b-TCP membrane (K–M).
