Use of autologous dentin matrix in bone defects augmentation — a literature review

A number of regenerative materials are currently used to regenerate or preserve the alveolar process. One of these is autogenous dentin matrix. With many valuable properties such as easy availability, simple preparation, low cost, low risk of disease transmission and no risk of triggering an immune response against the graft, autogenous dentin matrix appears to be a very good material of choice. The following article is intended to provide an overview of the use of autogenous dentin matrix.
