- Allograft (from another person)
- Xenograft (from another species, like bovine)
- Alloplast (synthetic materials)
- Osteoconductive vs. Osteoinductive properties
- Membrane materials: collagen wound dressings and barriers
- Growth Factors: BMP-2 and rh-PDGF for accelerated regeneration

- Why proper spacing determines long-term success
Bone Quality Classification:
- D1: Dense cortical bone (like oak)
- D2: Thick cortical with trabecular core
- D3: Thin cortical with trabecular core
- D4: Soft trabecular bone (like styrofoam)
Force Management:
- Selecting appropriate implant size
- Determining the correct number of implants
