Demographic characteristics of systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and randomized controlled trials in orthodontic journals with impact factor
(2015-03-18)
Introduction:
The aim of this study was to explore demographic characteristics of systematic reviews (SRs), meta-analyses (MAs), and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published in orthodontic journals with an impact ...
Guidelines on radiographic imaging as part of root canal treatment: a systematic review with a focus on review imaging after treatment
(2017)
Aim:
To identify guidelines on endodontics which make recommendations relating to post-root canal treatment radiological review imaging, to make an objective assessment of their quality using the AGREE tool and to examine ...
Does long-term use of pain relievers have an impact on the rate of orthodontic tooth movement? A systematic review of animal studies.
(2019-09-26)
Background:
Pain relief drugs are used and misused widely and may theoretically affect the events leading to orthodontic tooth movement.
Objective:
To systematically investigate and appraise the quality of the ...
Does common prescription medication affect the rate of orthodontic tooth movement? A systematic review
(2018-03-06)
Background:
As the taking of any medication may theoretically affect the complex pathways responsible for periodontal tissue homeostasis and the events leading to orthodontic tooth movement, it is considered important for ...
Short-term and long-term effectiveness of powered toothbrushes in promoting periodontal health during orthodontic treatment: A systematic review and meta- analysis
(2017)
Introduction:
Although powered toothbrushes have been reported to reduce gingivitis more than manual toothbrushes in the general population, the evidence regarding orthodontic patients has been inconclusive. Thus, we aimed ...
Treatment outcomes of pre-surgical infant orthopedics in patients with non-syndromic cleft lip and/or palate: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
(2017)
Background:
Non-syndromic clefts lip and/or palate (CL/P) defects may have manifold significant and detrimental consequences for the affected individuals and their family environment. Although the use of pre-surgical ...
Effectiveness of extraction of primary canines for interceptive management of palatally displaced permanent canines: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(2018)
Background:
Although extraction of primary canines in the mixed dentition has been suggested as a measure to prevent impaction of palatally displaced permanent canines (PDCs), the relevant evidence has been inconclusive ...
Tooth wear during orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances: a systematic review
(2018)
Objectives:
Tooth wear, additional to the physiologic alterations of the dentition, may occur during orthodontic treatment. The objective of the present review was to investigate systematically the literature relevant to ...
Effects of systemic medication on root resorption associated with orthodontic tooth movement: a systematic review of animal studies
(2018-07-09)
Background:
Theoretically, root resorption could be modulated by any medication taken that exhibits possible effects on the implicated molecular pathways.
Objectives:
To systematically investigate and appraise the ...
Outcomes and Complication Rates of the Tooth-Implant–Supported Fixed Prosthesis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
(2020)
Purpose:
To evaluate the implant and prosthetic outcomes and biologic and technical complications of tooth-implant– supported fixed dental prostheses (TISFDPs) in comparison with implant-supported fixed dental prostheses ...
