Clinical attachment level (CAL) · Adults with periodontitis (chronic and aggressive)
Clarithromycin + SRP led to lower clinical attachment level (CAL) compared with SRP; GRADE not reported.
2 findings from 1 review
Self- or observational assessment of intraoperative distress/pain/acceptance of treatment during provision of LA: anxiety/pain experience (VAS, higher scores indicate worsened anxiety) · Children and adolescents having dental treatment under local anaesthetic without general anaesthesia
Video modelling acclimatisation for LA may leads to lower self- or observational assessment of intraoperative… compared with oral hygiene video (low certainty).

Incidence of VAP · Critically ill patients (adults and children) receiving mechanical ventilation in ICU
Chlorhexidine (mouthrinse or gel), as part of oral hygiene care probably leads to lower incidence of VAP compared with placebo or usual care (moderate certainty).

Dental caries susceptibility · Individuals assessed for dental caries (cases with caries/high caries vs. caries-free or low/very-low-caries controls)
No significant association between CT genotype vs CC genotype of AMELX rs2106416 and dental caries susceptibility (CT vs CC model: OR 1.20, 95% CI 0.65-2.22) in the Ethnicity: Caucasian subgroup; certainty not graded.

Caries affecting the (distal) adjacent second molar · Adults (416 healthy male volunteers aged 24 to 84 years) with asymptomatic disease-free impacted wisdom teeth
It is very uncertain whether absence (previous removal or agenesis) of asymptomatic disease-free… changes caries affecting the (distal) adjacent second molar compared with presence (retention) of asymptomatic disease-free impacted wisdom… (very low certainty).
