Autogenous bone combined with anorganic bovine bone for maxillary sinus augmentation: analysis of the osteogenic potential of cells derived from the donor and the grafted sites.

Abstract

This study aimed to comparatively evaluate the in vitro osteogenic potential of cells obtained from the mandibular ramus (MR, autogenous bone donor site) and from the maxillary sinus (MS) bone grafted with a mixture of anorganic bovine bone (ABB) and MR prior to titanium implant placement (MS, grafted implant site).
