Objective: This review evaluated the use of autogenous tooth as a bone graft material in guided bone regeneration (GBR). Moreover, it compared the results of GBR using autogenous demineralized dentin, partially demineralized dentin, and mineralized dentin with or without membrane to verify its clinical advantage, effectiveness, and safety. Methods: A search was conducted in PubMed/MEDLINE, Lilacs, Embase, Cochrane, and Scopus databases. Specific criteria were established for the inclusion and exclusion of studies, including types of studies considered, target population (clinical studies: humans), evaluated intervention (studies assessing and comparing autologous demineralized dentin, partially demineralized dentin, and mineralized dentin in GBR with or without resorbable membrane), and language and publication period of articles (English and published in the last 11 years). A detailed assessment of the methodological quality of the selected studies was conducted using the JBI critical appraisal tool. Results: Based on the analysis conducted, out of 174 potentially relevant articles obtained, only 19 publications met the inclusion criteria, with three papers showing medium quality/moderate risk of bias and the rest with high quality/low risk of bias. Comparison between groups revealed stability of the newly formed bone, low marginal bone loss, clinically acceptable primary and secondary implant stability quotient (ISQ) values, and high implant survival rates after using autogenous tooth biomaterial. Conclusions: The results of this review on the use of autogenous teeth as a bone graft material in guided bone regeneration indicated that the technique has the potential to be an effective and safe treatment option. Analysis of selected studies showed favorable evidence for the use of autogenous teeth in bone regeneration, suggesting clinical benefits, most for socket preservation. These results are relevant for guiding clinical practice and assisting dental professionals in having options for biomaterials for bone regeneration.
