  • Title: Is human bone allograft safe for the management of alveolar defects? A primer for patient consent.
    Author: Faiella RA.
    Journal: J Mass Dent Soc; 2007; 56(3):18-20. PubMed ID: 18069589.
    Abstract:
    Allograft bone has been used safely and extensively in dental and implant surgery for more than 35 years, and increased federal regulation only serves to enhance an exceptional safety record. However, proper selection of tissue from accredited banks by a knowledgeable clinician, and compliance with tracking and recordkeeping recommendations, will provide the ultimate benefit to the patients who trust our clinical judgment for their wellbeing.
