Self-etch adhesive + acetone-based total-etch adhesive vs Total-etching 36% phosphoric acid + acetone-based total-etch adhesive

Clinical failure · Children with extensive decay involving the dental pulp in primary teeth

It is very uncertain whether self-etch adhesive + acetone-based total-etch adhesive changes clinical failure compared with total-etching 36% phosphoric acid + acetone-based total-etch adhesive (very low certainty).

Fluoride varnish vs Fluoride in dentifrice

Caries increment, surface index D(M)FS · Children or adolescents

The illustrative network meta-regression estimated an SMD for caries increment for fluoride in varnish versus fluoride in dentifrice across randomization year; the review did not state whether the difference was significant and certainty was not graded.

Fluoride gel (topically applied; operator- or self-applied; any fluoride agent/concentration; frequency at least once a year) vs Fluoride in dentifrice

Caries increment, surface index D(M)FS · Children or adolescents

The illustrative network meta-regression estimated an SMD for caries increment for fluoride in gel versus fluoride in dentifrice across randomization year; the review did not state whether the difference was significant and certainty was not graded.

Self-etch adhesive + acetone-based total-etch adhesive vs Total-etching 36% phosphoric acid + acetone-based total-etch adhesive

Radiological failure · Children with extensive decay involving the dental pulp in primary teeth

It is very uncertain whether self-etch adhesive + acetone-based total-etch adhesive changes radiological failure compared with total-etching 36% phosphoric acid + acetone-based total-etch adhesive (very low certainty).

Hand mallet (osteotomes) vs Electric mallet

Implant failure · Patients undergoing one-stage crestal maxillary sinus lift without bone grafts (baseline residual bone height about 6.5 mm)

Hand mallet (osteotomes) showed no clear difference in implant failure compared with electric mallet; GRADE not reported.
