Papilla base incision (PBI) vs Complete papilla mobilisation (sulcular incision): Height loss of interdental papilla - 1 year

Population
People requiring retreatment of periapical lesions (failed root canal therapy)
Intervention
Papilla base incision (PBI)
Comparison
Complete papilla mobilisation (sulcular incision)
Outcome
Height loss of interdental papilla - 1 year

It is very uncertain whether papilla base incision (PBI) changes height loss of interdental papilla - 1 year compared with complete papilla mobilisation (sulcular incision) (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.
