Abstract

We report a simplified method of using bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC™) to regenerate hard tissue. The results suggest that BMAC™ combined with a suitable biomaterial can form sufficient bone within 3 months for further implants to be inserted, and at the same time minimise morbidity at the donor site.
