Population
Children with extensive decay involving the dental pulp in primary teeth
Intervention
Self-etch adhesive + acetone-based total-etch adhesive
Comparison
Acetone-based total-etch adhesive
Outcome
Clinical failure

It is very uncertain whether self-etch adhesive + acetone-based total-etch adhesive changes clinical failure compared with acetone-based total-etch adhesive (very low certainty).

The same intervention and outcome, asked in another population or against another comparator.

How reviews are matched to this question

Reviews word the same question differently. Four decision models (TypeSafe's Jev, Liquid AI's d1-ultra, SubQ Snap and Baseten's Elephant) judged each wording of the population, intervention, comparator and outcome against the others; two wordings count as the same when at least three of them agree and none clearly disagrees, and findings count as this question only when all four elements match. Timing, setting and subgroup never split a question: they are shown on each finding.
