Abstract
Bone paste and chips appeared to delay, rather than hasten, the reparative process in freshly created tooth sockets, in dogs, as demonstrated clinically and histologically. No difference in acceptability could be demonstrated between bone chips or bone paste. Both were rejected equally and promptly. The bone grafts were unaffected by the time of grafting, immediate or delayed. Different specimens of the donor bone reacted in such a manner as to indicate a varied degree of host rejection on an individual basis. The bone grafts in all cases acted as space maintainers.
