    Transplantation of bone allografts is an accepted procedure in dentistry as it is in many surgical specialties.

This brief review paper summarizes contemporary knowledge of the biologic properties of bone transplants used in dentistry and discusses their safety. It is intended to aid dental practitioners in selecting suitable bone allograft materials for their patients. It does not deal with bone autografts nor does it compare autografts and allografts. Long-term clinical results with allografts processed by different methods are also outside of the scope of this review. .. View More»
