  • Title: Bone and bone graft healing.
    Author: Marx RE.
    Journal: Oral Maxillofac Surg Clin North Am; 2007 Nov; 19(4):455-66, v. PubMed ID: 18088897.
    Abstract:
    Bone is unique in connective tissue healing because it heals entirely by cellular regeneration and the production of a mineral matrix rather than just collagen deposition known as scar. This article discusses the cellular, tissue, and organ levels in each of the following sections--skeletal embryology, normal bone, examples of abnormal bone, and bone graft healing--as they relate to the jaws and the craniofacial skeleton.
