An autograft is graft material taken from your own body and moved to another site. In dentistry, autograft most often refers to your own bone or gum tissue used to rebuild or thicken an area. It is commonly used around dental implants, after tooth removal, and in periodontal (gum) procedures. Because the tissue comes from the same person, it is considered “self-sourced” grafting.
