N2  - Objective: The aim of the study was to compare the bone healing potential of  NanoBone (a synthetic bone graft material produced by nano-technology) versus  MinerOss (a freeze dried bone allograft) in a rabbit tibial defect model. Materials  and methods: Thirty adult male New Zealand white rabbits were used in this study.  Two holes 1 cm apart 3.5 mm in diameter were created in each tibia reaching the bone  marrow. The NanoBone was packed in the upper holes of the right side tibiae while  the MinerOss was packed in the upper holes of the left side tibiae. The lower holes of  the right and left tibiae were left untreated without any grafting material and acted as  controls. The rabbits were randomly assigned into three groups I, II & III (10 rabbits  each) according to the date of sacrifice 2, 4 and 6 weeks respectively. The specimens  were then examined histologically, histomorphometrically and densitometrically using  Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scan
