Tooth Gone, Bone Reborn!!

Abstract

In regions of the jaws where bone loss has occurred, density and volume are restored using a dental bone graft. The material for the bone graft may be obtained from an animal tissue bank (xenograft) or a human tissue bank (allograft). or derived (autogenous) from your own body. After being mechanically cleaned and disinfected, extracted teeth are used in dentistry as particulate autologous dentin for rapid grafting of the extraction site.
