ARP with alloplast vs Extraction alone

Changes in vertical height of alveolar ridge (mm) · Adults aged 18 years or older, in good general health (including well-controlled systemic disease), requiring extraction of one or more…

It is very uncertain whether ARP with alloplast changes changes in vertical height of alveolar ridge (mm) compared with extraction alone (very low certainty).

ARP with xenograft (bone graft) vs Extraction alone

Need for additional augmentation prior to implant placement · Adults aged 18 years or older, in good general health (including well-controlled systemic disease), requiring extraction of one or more…

It is very uncertain whether ARP with xenograft (bone graft) changes need for additional augmentation prior to implant placement compared with extraction alone (very low certainty).

Age 8-10 years vs Age >10 years

Spontaneous space closure · Children and adolescents with maxillary permanent first molar extraction

In the maxilla, age 8-10 years was not associated with a statistically significant difference in space closure odds.

1 finding from 1 review

Mandibular third molar present vs Mandibular third molar absent

Spontaneous space closure · Children and adolescents after extraction of a mandibular permanent first molar (before eruption of the second molar)

In the mandible, presence of the third molar increases odds of spontaneous space closure (OR 2.28; low certainty).

Higher mean patient age (per 1 year) vs Lower mean patient age (per 1-year decrement)

Spontaneous space closure · Children and adolescents after extraction of a mandibular permanent first molar (before eruption of the second molar)

In the mandible, mean patient age was not significantly associated with space closure odds (OR 0.59 per year; not GRADE-rated).

Male sex vs Female sex

Spontaneous space closure · Children and adolescents after extraction of a mandibular permanent first molar (before eruption of the second molar)

In the mandible, sex was not significantly associated with space closure (OR 1.38; not GRADE-rated).

M2 Demirjian stages F-G vs M2 Demirjian stages E-D

Spontaneous space closure · Children and adolescents with maxillary permanent first molar extraction

In the maxilla, M2 Demirjian stages F-G were not associated with a statistically significant difference in space closure odds.

Dental crowding present vs Dental spacing present

Spontaneous space closure · Children and adolescents after extraction of a mandibular permanent first molar (before eruption of the second molar)

One study found space closure more likely with crowding than spacing (OR 5.9; single study; not GRADE-rated).

Second molar at Demirjian stage A-D at extraction vs Second molar at Demirjian stage F-H at extraction

Spontaneous space closure · Children and adolescents with maxillary permanent first molar extraction

In the maxilla, M2 Demirjian stages A-D were not associated with a statistically significant difference in space closure odds.
