ABSTRACT
Aim of the study: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of various bone reconstruction techniques for preparing the prosthetic field for dental implants.
Materials and methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis of studies published between 2000 and 2024 was conducted. Databases searched included PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. Studies were selected based on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria, and data were extracted and analyzed using standard meta-analytic techniques.
Results: The meta-analysis included 15 studies, with a total of 1,200 patients. The results indicated that autogenous bone grafts provided the highest implant success rates and long-term bone stability compared to allografts and synthetic materials. Complications were more common with allografts and synthetic materials.
Conclusions: Autogenous bone grafts are recommended for optimal outcomes in dental implant procedures, although allografts and synthetic materials remain viable alternatives in specific clinical scenarios.
