The in vitro osteogenic differentiation process and in vivo bone regenerative property of human amniotic epithelial cells (hAECs) were investigated. The results showed improved bone regeneration by direct participation and a reduced early host immune response. hAECs possess proper osteogenic differentiation potential, with a modulatory influence on early tissue remodeling, making these cells a potential source of progenitor cells for clinical restoration of the alveolar defect.
