Abstract:
Autogenous tooth bone graft material contains organic and inorganic components for osteoinductive and osteoconductive healing. The clinical availability and safety of this material have been confirmed by various experimental and clinical studies. In the future, allogenic and xenogenic tooth bone graft materials, ideal scaffold using teeth for stem cells and bone growth factors, and endodontic and tooth restorative material will be developed.
