Flapped versus flapless alveolar ridge preservation: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(2021)
Abstract:
Alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) procedures can limit bone changes following tooth extraction. Flapped and flapless surgical approaches have been used for ARP; however, there is a lack of strong scientific ...
What is the effect of preterm birth on permanent tooth crown dimensions? A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2021)
