ABSTRACT
Objectives: Enough bone around the implant is an important factor in ensuring the stability and longevity of the implant. Therefore, alveolar bone regeneration procedures are often required. A relatively new bone substitute is made from autogenous teeth. There are more and more studies in the scientific literature that perform regenerative alveolar bone procedures using autogenous tissues substitutes made from extracted teeth. The objective of this systematic literature review is to systematize information and present conclusions about the effectiveness of this regenerative material.
Material and Methods: Scientific articles were selected using the PRISMA recommendations. Publications have been carried out since January 1, 2012 to January 1, 2022. The review includes articles in English, clinical studies in humans who underwent bone augmentation prior to or during dental implantation using an autogenous teeth tissues substitute.
Results: A total of 7 publications were included in this systematic literature review. Summarizing the data of the publications, 258 patients participated in the studies, 240 subjects were included in the results for various reasons, and a total of 298 implants were inserted. No statistically significant results were found in the five studies. Two studies comparing autogenous tooth graft with xenogeneic bone graft and autogenous teeth tissues showed statistically significant positive results in autogenous tooth group.
Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, autogenous tissues graft derived from teeth are an effective material and can be used as an alternative to other bone grafts existing on the market. Further studies with a longer follow-up period are needed to validate these findings.
