Number of participants with more severe DLs of aesthetic concern · Orthodontic patients of any age with fixed braces (new DLs assessed at debond)
Resin-modified glass ionomer cement for bonding orthodontic brackets showed no clear difference in number of participants with more severe DLs of aesthetic concern compared with light-cured composite resin for bonding brackets (low certainty).

Number of postoperative bleeding episodes requiring intervention · People with haemophilia (A or B) undergoing minor oral surgery or dental extractions
Antifibrinolytic therapy (tranexamic acid or epsilon aminocaproic… probably leads to lower number of postoperative bleeding episodes requiring intervention compared with placebo, no intervention or usual care (with or without placebo) (moderate certainty).
