Bone-Grafting Biomaterials: Autografts, Hydroxyapatite, Calcium-Phosphates, and Biocomposites

By Takashi Miyazaki and Yoshiki Oshida

Bone augmentation is a procedure to replace and repair fractured bone in extreme circumstances. The materials used in such grafting techniques must be biocompatible and might come from natural bone sources or synthetic materials. This book defines bone augmentation and describes different bone grafting materials, techniques, and applications. Recently developed materials are also explored.
