Extraction of the primary (baby) canine (single primary tooth extraction) vs No extraction (non-intervention control): Incidence of eruption of the PDC into the mouth
- Population
- Young people aged 9 to 14 years diagnosed with one or both palatally displaced permanent maxillary canines (PDC)
- Intervention
- Extraction of the primary (baby) canine (single primary tooth extraction)
- Comparison
- No extraction (non-intervention control)
- Outcome
- Incidence of eruption of the PDC into the mouth
It is very uncertain whether extraction of the primary (baby) canine (single primary tooth… changes incidence of eruption of the PDC into the mouth compared with no extraction (non-intervention control) (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.
