Efectividad de los injertos óseos intraorales según el material. Revisión sistemática.

Abstract

The present systematic quantitative evaluation aims to provide available scientifically based information on the effectiveness of intraoral bone grafts by material, considering both commonly used and contemporary graft materials, because this would allow greater effectiveness and efficiency in proposing treatment plans. A search was performed in databases: Scopus, PubMed, and Cochrane; information was searched in all years, and no language was excluded. The main search terms were Boolean operators and keywords. Studies were analyzed according to the Cochrane systematic review protocol; information with a minimum follow-up of three months was selected. Exclusion criteria were studies that did not comply with the previous protocol or unbiased results. Google Scholar was used for the grey literature; the risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Handbook tool for systematic reviews, and a dichotomous model meta-analysis was performed to assess the effectiveness of the experimental and control groups. Four significant studies were identified, with a clear result for the control group, which includes the most used materials; however, a significant result was found for the experimental group, which includes new materials on the market with a high effectiveness rate. The lack of scientific information on the subject makes proposing material challenging. The autologous graft, despite the passage of time, is distinguished as the gold standard, although new materials have been developed that, combined with this, can provide a great future for periodontics and oral surgery.
