This book provides a comprehensive overview of bone grafts and bone graft materials used in periodontology. It discusses the biological principles of bone regeneration, classification and properties of different graft materials, including autografts, allografts, xenografts, and alloplasts, along with their advantages, limitations, and clinical applications. The dissertation also covers the role of bone grafts in the management of periodontal osseous defects, ridge augmentation, guided bone regeneration, and implant-related procedures. In addition, it highlights the use of biologic agents, growth factors, tissue engineering, stem cells, nanotechnology, and three-dimensional scaffolds as recent advances in periodontal regeneration. Overall, the dissertation emphasizes the importance of appropriate graft selection, defect characteristics, and surgical technique in achieving predictable periodontal regeneration.
