Enhanced one-to-one OHA vs Routine one-to-one OHA: Plaque
- Population
- Children or adults (fit and healthy, or with a well-defined medical condition)
- Intervention
- Enhanced one-to-one OHA
- Comparison
- Routine one-to-one OHA
- Outcome
- Plaque
It is very uncertain whether enhanced one-to-one OHA changes periodontal health: plaque levels compared with one-to-one OHA (standard) (very low certainty).

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.
