Highlights |
• | Vertical bone augmentation procedures are becoming more and more in demand. |
• | It is essential to be aware of the complications associated with these techniques. |
• | Distraction osteogenesis seems to present the highest complication rate. |
• | Guided bone regeneration seems to present the lowest complication rate. |
• | This review is the first to focus exclusively on the associated complications. |
Abstract |
Vertical bone augmentation procedures are increasingly necessary in daily practice. However, it has been reported that vertical ridge augmentation is one of the least predictable techniques in terms of complications. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate and compare complications in relation to the different procedures used for vertical bone augmentation prior to implant placement. This review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines. An electronic search was carried out in four databases: The National Library of Medicine (MEDLINE/PubMed); Web of Science; SCOPUS; and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL). The Newcastle–Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale, the Cochrane Collaboration tool for assessing risk of bias, and The Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal tool were used to assess the quality of evidence in the studies reviewed. Twenty-five studies with a total of 749 vertically augmented sites were included in the review. Complication rates varied among the different procedures: 51.02% for distraction osteogenesis, 38.01% for bone blocks, and 16.80% for guided bone regeneration. Vertical bone augmentation procedures prior to implant placement are associated with frequent surgical complications and should be approached with caution due to their possible impact on clinical treatment success.
