Abstract
Bone augmentation to reconstruct atrophic jaws provides the base for sufficient functional and aesthetic implant-supported oral rehabilitation. Although autografts are the standard procedure for bone grafting, the use of bone regeneration by using dental pulp stem cell is an alternative that open a new era in this field. One patient undergoes to sinus lift elevation by means pulp stem cells gentle poured onto collagen sponge. Histological sampling was performed after 6 months. Results clearly demonstrated new bone formation after dental pulp stem cells grafting after sinus lift. This report demonstrated that stem cells derived from dental pulp poured onto collagen sponge is a useful method for bone regeneration in atrophic maxillaI documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
