• Abstract:

  The densification technique is a non-subtractive instrumentation method that has been recommended as a preparatory tool for osteotomy with the aim of increasing bone density in the location where the implant will be installed due to the elastic and plastic properties of the bone that facilitate volume compaction. bone and consequently favor the primary stability of the implant. Until now, the clinical results of this technique have demonstrated effectiveness even with influences regarding surface topography, biocompatibility and loading conditions, implant design, as well as the dimensions and characteristics of the surgical site. Therefore, the present study aims to present a survey of scientific evidence regarding osseodensification in dental implants over the last ten years. The search was carried out in PubMed and the Virtual Health Library and systematic reviews published in English and/or Portuguese between 2013 and 2023 were selected. The analysis of systematic reviews indicates that there is still a need to carry out new studies to provide more evidence. the osseointegration technique is significant considering that there are few studies on the subject and consequently a limitation of results due to methodological differences between studies, such as sample sizes and different evaluations, making it not possible to more thoroughly and comparatively analyze them, but All studies highlighted that this technique deserves greater attention from the dental profession.
