Table 1. | PICOS framework of the framed clinical question |
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Population (P) | Patients with insufficient alveolar process volume requiring dental implantation |
| Intervention (I) | Reconstructive procedures for alveolar jawbone using autogenous bone substitute produced from teeth in either particulate form or block form |
| Comparison (C) | Reconstruction of alveolar process using autogenous and other bone substitutes available on the market |
| Outcome (O) | Changes in the height and width of the alveolar process, the potential for new bone formation, implant stability, resorption of the bone substitute, possible complications during postoperative period |
| Study design | Randomized clinical trials, prospective studies and retrospective studies assessing alveolar bone reconstruction procedures with an autogenous bone substitute produced from teeth compared with other bone substitutes available on the market |
