Third molar agenesis in individuals with supernumerary teeth.

Objectives: To explore the association between third molar agenesis and supernumerary tooth formation in a white-European population.

Materials And Methods: A record review in various orthodontic clinics identified 380 eligible white-European individuals, half of whom had non-syndromic permanent supernumerary teeth (122 males and 68 females, totalling 244 supernumerary teeth; median age: 13.1, iqr: 1.

Supernumerary Tooth Patterns in Non-Syndromic White European Subjects.

Supernumerary teeth form at an incidence of about 3% in the population, with differences among races and various clinical consequences. Information on detailed patterns, and especially on white subjects, is scarce in the literature. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the patterns of non-syndromic permanent supernumerary teeth in a white European population.

Long-term effectiveness of non-surgical open-bite treatment: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: The etiology of open bite is complex, involving various genetic or environmental factors. Several treatment alternatives have been suggested for the correction of open bite, yet their long-term effectiveness remains controversial.

Objective: To assess the long-term effectiveness of open-bite treatment in treated with non-surgical approaches versus untreated patients, through lateral cephalometric radiographs.

Assisted reproduction technology outcomes in women with infertility and preexisting diabetes mellitus: a systematic review.

Objective: To assess maternal and neonatal outcomes in women with or without preexisting diabetes mellitus (DM) undergoing assisted reproduction technology (ART) treatment.

Methods: Prospective or retrospective controlled trials reporting on women with or without preexisting DM undergoing ART treatment were considered eligible. Twelve electronic databases were systematically searched up to December 2020.

Bisphosphonates as Supplement to Dental Treatment: A Network Meta-Analysis.

The objective of this study was to assess clinical measurements related to the effectiveness of bisphosphonate (BP) administration as a supplement to conventional dental treatment in patients free of bone-related diseases using a network meta-analysis. Only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were included that provided dental clinical measurements on human patients treated with BPs with or without similar untreated controls or treated with placebo. Information sources included a systematic search of 17 electronic databases up to August 2020, complemented by manual searches.
