Aim: To fabricate a hydroxyapatite and Cissus quadrangularis-incorporated TR membrane for guided tissue regeneration (GTR). Objective: To develop and evaluate the biocompatibility, contact angle, and structural characterization of the membrane using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Summary: Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) is a crucial technique in periodontal therapy, aiming to restore lost alveolar bone and periodontal support structures. Hydroxyapatite (HA), a calcium phosphate-based bioceramic, is widely recognized for its excellent biocompatibility, osteoconductivity, and role in bone regeneration. Cissus quadrangularis, a medicinal plant, has been reported to accelerate bone healing and reduce inflammation. In this study, a TR membrane incorporating hydroxyapatite and Cissus quadrangularis was fabricated and characterized for its potential use in periodontal regeneration. The membrane's surface properties, biocompatibility, and wettability were analyzed using SEM and contact angle measurements. The integration of HA and Cissus quadrangularis is expected to enhance the regenerative potential of the membrane, making it a promising biomaterial for periodontal applications.
