After internal and external validation, 1863 OMF surgeons within the German Association for Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (DGMKG) were invited via email to participate. Data management was anonymized and descriptively.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>324 OMF surgeons participated in the study (response rate 17.39%). Most participants (60.8%) work in private practices without inpatient care. 62.03% of participants insert > 200 implants, and 28.70% perform > 200 ARA annually. About 30.86% also provide implant-based prosthetic restorations. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is the imaging method most preferred by 87.74% of participants. The most common ARA techniques are external and internal sinus lift (SL) and bone block augmentation (97.31%, 90.57%, and 73.4%, respectively). Intraoral harvested autogenous bone grafts (ABG) are most commonly used for ARA (96.63%). The oblique line is the participants' preferred donor site for ABG (93.27%). ABG and xenogeneic bone substitutes are the most frequently used graft combinations (72.73%). Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is used by 58.59% of participants for ARA, mostly in SL procedures (76.44%). PRF is the most common substitute used to biofunctionalize biomaterials (48.16%). Oral antibiotics are used by 86.40% pre-/intraoperatively and by 88.97% postoperatively for ARA. Most participants believe the surgical technique (94.49%) and the surgeon's experience (92.28%) are the most critical factors for ARA success. 46.32% of participants aim to perform ARA within the skeletal envelope.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The findings highlight current practices, patient management, and innovations in ARA in OMFS in Germany.
