Early extraction of a compromised first permanent molar vs Contralateral non-extraction side (same patient): Development and eruption of the second permanent molar

Population
Children aged 5 to 15 years with a compromised first permanent molar
Intervention
Early extraction of a compromised first permanent molar
Comparison
Contralateral non-extraction side (same patient)
Outcome
Development and eruption of the second permanent molar

Root closure and eruption of the second permanent molar appeared accelerated on the extraction side in a single case-control study; ungraded and not statistically tested.

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.
