Abstract:
Purpose
This review will examine various types of bone grafting materials and procedures used in implant-supported prosthodontic procedures, as well as other aspects such as patient anatomy, grafting material types, and surgeons' skill levels. In addition, other methods such as growth factors/stem cells will also be discussed as possible means to further advance bone regeneration and implant success.

Materials and Methods
This systematic review involved randomized controlled trials to compare autografts, allografts, xenografts, and prosthetic grafts in dental implant bone augmentation. The values were assessed in implant survival, graft survival, bone gain, and the stability of the prosthetics. In this search, we considered PubMed, Medline, and the Cochrane Library in search findings, eliminating cases where research subjects had syndromic/systemic conditions, animal studies, or where there is insufficient data. In evaluating research, we use the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2.
Results
Based on 177 articles, 12 satisfied the criteria for selection. The autologous bone grafts produced better results with fewer complications and a higher rate of success in the augmentation of the site for the placement of the implant when compared to allografts, xenografts, and synthetic materials.
Conclusion
Bone grafting represents a crucial step in successful implant outcomes. Autografts are considered to be the gold standard, primarily because of osteogenic properties, although complications at a donor site cannot be ignored. Other options, such as allografts, xenografts, and alloplastics, have several advantages, but careful selection of patients, along with accurate surgery, becomes necessary. Recent developments are promising to improve outcomes in prosthodontic rehabilitation.
