ABSTRACT This case report describes the clinical, radiographic, and histological outcomes of alveolar ridge preservation using chairside‐prepared autogenous dentin graft stored at room temperature. A 25‐year‐old female underwent extraction of a non‐restorable maxillary premolar followed by ridge preservation using autogenous dentin graft prepared and stored 3 weeks earlier. Healing was uneventful. One‐year radiographic and histological evaluation demonstrated adequate bone formation with newly formed vital bone and no evidence of inflammation or residual dentin particles. This case contributes to emerging evidence supporting stored autogenous dentin as a potential grafting material.
