The Use of Autogenous Teeth for Alveolar Ridge Preservation: A Literature Review. Applied Sciences. 2021; 11(4):1853. https://doi.org/10.3390/app110418532076-3417http://hdl.handle.net/10400.26/59222Alveolar ridge resorption is a natural consequence of teeth extraction, with unpleasant aesthetic and functional consequences that might compromise a future oral rehabilitation. To minimize the biological consequences of alveolar ridge resorption, several surgical procedures have been designed, the so-called alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) techniques. One important characteristic is the concomitant use of biomaterial in ARP. In the past decade, autogenous teeth as a bone graft material in post-extraction sockets have been proposed with very interesting outcomes, yet with different protocols of preparation. Here we summarize the available evidence on autogenous teeth as a biomaterial in ARP, its different protocols and future directions.engextracted teethbone regenerationbone graftautogenous graftautogenous tooth bone grafthuman dentindemineralized dentincontribution to journal10.3390/app11041853
