Description

The search for a superior bone graft substitute compared to the gold standard of harvesting autogenous bone grafts has plagued dentists for decades. With the advent of tissue engineering, the search has been aimed at bone graft substitutes with osteogenic potential, in addition to the osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties. Bone Marrow Aspirates (BMAs) has evolved as a potential adjunct to conventional bone grafts that can substantially enhance the bone regeneration potential of these materials. The present systematic review aims to explore and assess the literature on the efficacy of bone marrow aspirates in new bone formation.

Efficacy of Bone Marrow Aspirates in Bone Regeneration Compared to Conventional Bone Grafts- A Systematic Review
