title: Stem cell-containing allograft matrix enhances periodontal regeneration: case presentations.
abstract: Periodontal defects involving either interproximal horizontal bone loss or furcations continue to challenge the regenerative capabilities of the oral cavity. The following case presentations show the successful treatment of these challenging periodontal defects with a novel cellular allograft that contains native mesenchymal stem cells and osteoprogenitor cells.
