Comparative Evaluation of Crestal Alveolar Bone Levels in Immediate Implants with and without Bone Grafts and Growth Factors: A Systematic Review

Abstract The restoration of missing teeth has been significantly advanced through the introduction of immediate implants. These implants provide a quicker alternative to traditional methods, ensuring faster recovery of function and aesthetics. However, maintaining crestal alveolar bone levels around these implants remains a critical determinant of their long-term success. This review evaluates the impact of bone grafts and growth factors on immediate implant outcomes in terms of crestal bone levels.
