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 non-rinse conditioner + acetone-based total-etch adhesive (very low certainty).

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).

Treatment failure (annual failure rate) · Children with moderately deep dentine caries in primary molars, no pulp therapy
Etch-and-rinse adhesion failed more than self-etch (19.5% vs 7.0% annual failure) in one RCT; low quality of evidence (ungraded).

Physiological measures during local anaesthesia (pulse rate and oxygen saturation) · Children aged 4 to 13 years with no previous dental experience undergoing restorative treatment with local anaesthesia (Gokli 1994)
1 finding from 1 review
With regard to oxygen saturation and pulse rate, only pulse rate was significantly lower in the hypnosis group (P = 0.005); oxygen saturation did not differ significantly. (Gokli 1994; cross-over, 29 children.)

Measures of behaviour during local anaesthesia administration (undesirable behaviours: crying, hand movement, physical resistance, leg movement) · Children aged 4 to 13 years with no previous dental experience undergoing restorative treatment with local anaesthesia (Gokli 1994)
1 finding from 1 review
Patients who were hypnotised demonstrated fewer undesirable behaviours (crying, hand movement, physical resistance and leg movement) than those who did not undergo hypnosis. Decreased crying with hypnosis was the only…

Enamel demineralization (DIAGNOdent score) · Orthodontic patients of any age with fixed braces (new DLs assessed at debond)
Adhesive precoated flash-free brackets showed no demineralization difference, with certainty not graded.
1 finding from 1 review
Intergroup evaluation showed that there were no statistically significant differences in demineralization measurements between all sides of the conventional and flash-free brackets at all the time intervals (p >0.05).

White spot lesion incidence, area, and depth · Orthodontic patients of any age with fixed braces (new DLs assessed at debond)
GC Ortho Connect had more frequent, larger, and deeper WSLs, with certainty not graded.
1 finding from 1 review
Group 3 (GC Ortho Connect) showed a significantly higher incidence than both groups (p < 0.001). Group 3 (GC Ortho Connect) also had larger lesion areas and deeper lesions compared to other groups (p < 0.001).

White spot lesion formation (QLF: fluorescence loss, lesion area) · Orthodontic patients of any age with fixed braces (new DLs assessed at debond)
Indirect bonding with a flowable adhesive favored less QLF-measured demineralization, with certainty not graded.
1 finding from 1 review
The DB group exhibited significantly higher loss of fluorescence and degree of demineralization compared to the IB group between T0 and T1, with notable differences in specific quadrants (p <0.05 for ΔF and ΔF max).
