title: [Regeneration instead of reparation: a critical review of the autogenous bone transplant as "golden standard" of reconstructive oral surgery].
abstract: Autogenous bone transfer is still regarded as the "golden standard" for many indications in oral and cranio-maxillofacial surgery. In this overview, the status of the autogenous bone is re-evaluated under consideration of current research results, clinical long-term studies, risks and safety of the patient as well as the costs. Due to the further development of modern bone substitute materials, which reveal in parts superior long-term results for special indications, the routine use of autogenous bone has to be critically reviewed.
