Abstract:
Recently, clinical application of autogenous tooth bone-graft materials has been reported. Autogenous tooth bone graft has been used in implant surgery. Familial tooth bone graft is a more advanced procedure than autogenous teeth bone graft in that extracted teeth can be used for bone graft materials of implant and teeth donation between siblings is possible. We used autogenous tooth and familial tooth bone-graft materials for ridge augmentation and sinus bone graft and obtained satisfactory results. The cases are presented herein.
