Bone grafts with surface decalcified allogeneic and particulate autologous bone: report of cases

A method for mandibular bone grafting that uses a combination of SDAB and particulate autologous cancellous bone and marrow is presented. The results of this treatment in four patients are described. Two additional maxillary bone grafts that use only SDAB are also reported. Grafts that are a combination of SDAB and cancellous autologous bone and marrow are biocompatible, anatomically contoured, easily adapted at surgery, and the allogeneic component is biodegradable. They do not require elaborate internal metallic devices for structural support.
