Caries presence in primary teeth · Young children with primary (deciduous) dentition (aged 1 to 6 years at study start)
Prenatal (in-womb) tobacco exposure is associated with higher odds of caries in primary dentition (pooled OR 1.46, 95% CI 1.41 to 1.52; 4 studies; no heterogeneity); certainty not graded.

Dental caries · Children and adolescents (general population, aged under 20 years)
In children and adolescents, passive tobacco exposure (prenatal or postnatal) is associated with higher odds of dental caries (pooled OR 1.53, 95% CI 1.39 to 1.68; 21 studies), though heterogeneity was high (I2=86.5%); certainty of evidence not graded.

Caries prevalence (early childhood caries) · Preschool children aged <=71 months (caries outcome assessed at 3-6 years)
Preschool children exposed to secondary smoking have higher odds of caries prevalence (OR 1.77), but the cross-sectional evidence is very uncertain (very low certainty).

Caries in primary teeth: dmft (3 years) · Children and adolescents with epilepsy
In children/adolescents, the dmft (primary teeth) index does not differ significantly with epilepsy (SMD 0.132, 95% CI -0.220 to 0.484, P = .463; ungraded subgroup).

Mean DMFT (decayed, missing, filled permanent teeth) · Children and adolescents with epilepsy
In children/adolescents, the higher DMFT with epilepsy is not statistically significant (SMD 0.334, 95% CI -0.140 to 0.827, P = .164; ungraded subgroup).
1 finding from 1 review
Mean DMFT (decayed, missing, filled permanent teeth) · people with epilepsy
People with epilepsy have a significantly higher DMFT (permanent-teeth caries) index than controls (SMD 0.403, 95% CI 0.057 to 0.749; high certainty).
1 finding from 1 review
Mean DMFT (decayed, missing, filled permanent teeth) · Adults with epilepsy
In adults, epilepsy is associated with a significantly higher DMFT than controls (SMD 0.548, P < .001; ungraded subgroup analysis).

Number of participants referred for surgical exposure of the PDC · Young people aged 9 to 14 years diagnosed with one or both palatally displaced permanent maxillary canines (PDC)
It is very uncertain whether double primary (canine and first molar) tooth extraction changes number of participants referred for surgical exposure of the PDC compared with single primary (canine) tooth extraction (very low certainty).
