ARP with xenograft (bone graft) vs Extraction alone: Complications (e.g. discomfort, pain and swelling)
- Population
- Adults aged 18 years or older, in good general health (including well-controlled systemic disease), requiring extraction of one or more permanent teeth (mandibular or maxillary, molar or non-molar), with consideration of future delayed dental implant placement
- Intervention
- ARP with xenograft (bone graft)
- Comparison
- Extraction alone
- Outcome
- Complications (e.g. discomfort, pain and swelling)

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.
