Titanium mesh associated with rhBMP-2 in alveolar ridge reconstruction

A systematic review of the literature was performed regarding the use of titanium mesh in association with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP) for alveolar ridge reconstruction. The PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane databases were searched for articles in English published up until June 2017. The inclusion criteria encompassed studies in humans − randomized clinical trials, prospective and retrospective studies, and case series. The screening and selection process was performed by three independent reviewers, with verification by a senior researcher in the case of disagreement.
