Regeneration is defined as reconstitution of a lost or injured part, with form and function of lost structures restored. Graft associated regeneration still remains the mainstay and newer graft materials of diverse origin are added to the already existing lot, with claims of superior clinical outcomes. Thus, the search for newer, near ideal biomaterials and procedures continue to be a challenge in the field of regenerative dentistry. Based on the regenerative properties of osteoconduction, osteoinduction, creeping substitution and osteogenesis mediated via the expression of growth factors derived from the patient's own tooth and the histo-morphological similarities between tooth and bone, a novel bone graft material has been developed utilizing the structural components of an extracted tooth. This review elaborately describes a novel regenerative technology of the autogenous tooth derived bone graft material, a biomimetic system that treats patients by fabricating a bone graft material from their own extracted teeth.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
