Objective: We sought to revise, qualify and summarize the body of evidence based on current information on the known associations and risk factors for traumatic dental injury (TDI) occurrence with an overview of systematic reviews.

Methods: Electronic searches were performed with no language nor date restrictions.According to the PECO strategy, systematic reviews that investigated participants (P) with (E) and without (O) the presentation of factors relating to TDI and these factors' association with TDI episodes (O) as primary or secondary outcomes were included.

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential of endotoxin reduction by comparing the number of lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) before and after the use of calcium hydroxide (Ca[OH]) as intracanal medication (ICM).

Methods: Searches were performed up to June 2020. Clinical and experimental studies comparing the amount of LPSs before and after the use of Ca(OH) as ICM in infected root canals were included.

Objective: To assess whether lesion sterilization and tissue repair (LSTR) technique resulted in similar clinical and radiographic success outcomes as compared with pulpectomy in primary teeth.

Materials And Methods: Randomized clinical trials comparing LSTR with pulpectomy by means of clinical and radiographic parameters were included. Risk of bias was assessed using Cochrane methodology and the certainty of evidence was determined by GRADE.

Objectives: Given that current literature largely dissociates dental malocclusion and bruxism, the objective of this study was to gather, through a systematic review, scientific evidence to support their relationship.

Methodology: This study was performed according to the PECO strategy (where P = general population; E = dental malocclusion; C = no dental malocclusion; and O = bruxism). Literature searches were conducted without language or date restrictions in the following databases: PubMed, Scopus, the Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, LILACS/BBO via VHL and the grey literature.
