Graft healing

The restoration of implanted living tissue to its original integrity. Bone graft healing has two different routes: either it fails to incorporate and gradually disappears, or it becomes incorporated as a mechanically functioning part of the host bone. Osteoblasts or osteoprogenitor cells may be transferred to the recipient site. Via resorption of bone graft, various growth factors are released from the noncollagenous part of bone matrix.
