Types of Dental Tissue Grafting Materials
There are two main families of materials used for tissue grafting in dentistry. One family includes autogenous materials like tajama's bone or blood-derived products such as PMP and PRF. The other family consists of non-autogenous products. Distinctions are made between what is placed in the socket for grafting, what is inserted into the socket, and how the socket is sealed. Different materials serve different purposes, with each serving as an osteogenic scaffold and barrier against soft tissue in growth.
