Long-term follow-up of autogenous tooth bone graft blocks with dental implants.
Demineralized dentin matrix block (ABTB: Autogenous Tooth Bone Graft Block) is 3-D scaffold with same components and geometry with alveolar bone. ABTB is well incorporated and remodelled into cortico-cancellous bone with dental implant. The shape and volume were maintained with little marginal bone loss after average 44 months of follow-up.
