Abstract: In the past decades, restorations supported by dental implants have become the priority treatment option for patients with partial or total edentulous. However, bone defect after teeth removal will increase the risk of dental implants. Many bone substitutes have been used to solve bone defect in clinic, but the substitutes exist different shortcomings. The structure and composition of human teeth are similar to bone, which are easily to obtain and have slight rejection and good biocompatibility. At present, it is reported that the autogenous teeth could be used for bone substitutes. This article reviews the application of autogenous teeth bone in dental implantation.

Key words: Dental implant, Autogenous tooth bone, Bone substitute
