Failure of single-unit restorations on root filled posterior teeth: a systematic review.

TLDR
The current evidence suggested that the failure rates of the treatments may depend on the amount of remaining tooth structure and type of treatment, and post-retained crowns were associated with the most favourable outcome in teeth with one to two remaining coronal tooth wall(s), whereas post-free crownswere superior when greater tooth structure was available.Abstract:
This systematic review investigated the failure rate of conventional single-unit restorations in root filled posterior permanent teeth. Two reviewers independently applied eligibility criteria, extracted data and assessed the quality of the evidence of each included study according to the Cochrane Collaboration's procedures for randomized control trials (RCTs) and the STROBE criteria for observational studies. The MEDLINE (via Ovid), EMBASE (via Ovid), Cochrane Oral Health Group Trials Register and CENTRAL (via Cochrane Library) databases were searched electronically (January 1993 to week 1, February 2015). This was complemented by an additional hand search of selected journals and the references of relevant studies. Clinical studies published on root filled single-unit restorative treatments with a mean follow-up period of at least 3 years were selected. The outcome measured was clinical or radiological failure. Overall, the four RCTs and the single observational study included were of low and high quality, respectively. Therefore, a meta-analysis was not possible. The pooled mean failure rates were reported according to the type of treatment and remaining coronal tooth structure. The current evidence suggested that the failure rates of the treatments may depend on the amount of remaining tooth structure and type of treatment. Post-retained crowns were associated with the most favourable outcome in teeth with one to two remaining coronal tooth wall(s), whereas post-free crowns were superior when greater tooth structure was available. Restorations in teeth without ferrules had such a high rate of failure that other treatment options should be considered.read more

Should my composite restorations last forever? Why are they failing?

TL;DR: The main reasons for failure in posterior teeth are secondary caries and fracture (restoration or tooth/restoration), while in anterior teeth esthetic concerns are the main reasons leading to restoration failures.

Clinical performance of zirconia implants: A meta-review.
TL;DR: Based on this meta-review, in spite of short-term promising results of zirconia implants, evidence with long term evidence is lacking and the overall AMSTAR's quality of these reports was moderate.

Lay preferences for dentogingival esthetic parameters: A systematic review
TL;DR: The present review provides the estimated thresholds of tolerability and ideal values of smile parameters determined by laypeople, which may guide clinicians in evidence‐based diagnosis and the planning of dental esthetic treatments.

TL;DR: The results of this systematic review suggested that NiTi rotary instruments were associated with lower canal transportation and apical extrusion when compared to SST hand files, whereas both groups had similar outcomes in terms of success of therapy, amount of residual bacteria, and cleansing ability after treatment.

From dental science to clinical practice: Knowledge translation and evidence-based dentistry principles.
TL;DR: This literature review aims to revisit the concepts of knowledge translation and evidence-based dentistry and depict their role and influence within dental education, and addresses some possible strategies to facilitate knowledge translation (KT) and encourage dental students to use EBD principles.

Understanding interobserver agreement: the kappa statistic.
TL;DR: Items such as physical exam findings, radiographic interpretations, or other diagnostic tests often rely on some degree of subjective interpretation by observers and studies that measure the agreement between two or more observers should include a statistic that takes into account the fact that observers will sometimes agree or disagree simply by chance.
