The goal of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of autogenous bone grafts with and without recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 for rehabilitation of narrow alveolar ridge width by dental implants. Twelve patients (2 males and 10 females), ranging from 36 to 60 years and a mean age of 47.08 years, were divided into two study groups. One received autogenous bone graft (A1) and the other group autogenous bone graft with rhBMP-2 using a collagen membrane (A2). All patients were clinically evaluated and received a CBCT for an accurate measurement of the alveolar ridge width, height, and after six months postoperatively. The mean difference in primary and secondary alveolar bone width (after 6 months) in group A1 was 4.14 mm, with a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05). Also, the mean difference in primary and secondary (after 6 months) alveolar bone width in group A2 was 5.14 mm, with a significant difference between them (P-value 0.00). The addition of rhBMP-2 increased the extent of bone width regeneration compared with the autogenous bone graft used alone. Both study groups showed a statistically significant increase in bone width at 6 months, with the highest increase observed in group A2 (ABG + rhBMP-2).
