Bone defects repaired with dentin matrix.
The results of this study summarized in the Table 1 indicate that both allogenic and xenogenic dentin matrix stimulated sufficient new bone formation to bridge the gap between the two cut ends of a bone (rat fibula). Allogenic bone grafts appeared to be successful in restoring resected bone more often than did xenografts.
