** Bone autograft is generally preferred by surgeons because, as well as eliminating the risks associated with allografts, bone autograft contains native bone-forming cells ( osteoblasts ), so the graft actually forms new bone itself ( osteoinductive ), as well as acting as a matrix or scaffold to new bone growing from the bones being bridged ( osteoconductive ).
