Ungraded means an effect was reported without a GRADE rating; it is not a gap. No studies means the review found nothing to answer the question. The six categories are a display order, not a score.

Review question

Element	Planned (methods)	Found (results)
Population	All children and adolescents under 18, who had AI and required restorative care, eligible for inclusion irrespective of nationality	Not reported
Intervention	Permanent restorative materials and techniques for teeth affected by AI: metal restorations (amalgam); glass ionomers (type I, II, III, IV); composite resins (macrofilled, microfilled, hybrid, nanofilled); resin-modified glass ionomers (compomers, giomers); cement; stainless steel/nickel-chrome crowns; pre-fabricated resin/porcelain veneer facings; microabrasion	Not reported
Comparison	A different restorative material or technique (head-to-head comparison); studies comparing microabrasion with dental restorations would have been included; dental restorations versus overdenture or extraction excluded	Not reported
Outcomes	Primary: patient satisfaction due to reduced dental sensitivity and improved aesthetics. Secondary: improved aesthetics (self esteem, comfort, positive psychological impact); improved masticatory function; longevity of restoration. Adverse events would also have been documented	Not reported
Study designs	Randomised controlled trials (RCTs)	Not reported
Timing	Not specified	Not reported
