The incidence of caries in primary teeth was found to be high compared with caries in permanent teeth in the Arab League. This study does not provide a comprehensive picture of caries prevalence in the Arab League because in many of these countries only a few studies were performed. Therefore, these data cannot provide a complete picture of the prevalence of caries in those countries. Additional studies are needed to better evaluate the prevalence of caries in children and young adults in Arab League countries.

“…There was one review that was partially relevant and examined the question of whether bonded amalgams are better than nonbonded ones in restoring permanent teeth. 1 The authors found one trial with 31 patients (113 restorations) that compared adhesively bonded amalgam restorations (Dycal (LD Caulk) liner; ED primer (Kuraray); Panavia 21TC (Kuraray); Oxyguard II gel (Kuraray); Dispersalloy amalgam (Dentsply)) versus non-bonded amalgam restorations (Dycal (LD Caulk) liner.…”

“…The gap between dental tissue and amalgam restoration risks attracting a buildup of the waste products of the dental amalgam. 1 The microleakage from the tooth and restoration interface has been reported as a potential contributing factor towards some of the problematic symptoms experienced by patients following placement of amalgam restorations, for example postoperative sensitivity. 2,3 Therefore, some dentists recommend using liners between the amalgam and dental tissue.…”

Since August 2009, members of the Primary Care Dentistry Research Forum (www.dentistryresearch.org) have taken part in an online vote to identify questions in day-to-day practice that they felt most needed to be answered with conclusive research. The question that receives the most votes each month forms the subject of a critical appraisal of the relevant literature. Each month a new round of voting takes place to decide which further questions will be reviewed. Dental practitioners and dental care professionals are encouraged to take part in the voting and submit their own questions to be included in the vote by joining the website. The paper below details a summary of the findings of the ninth critical appraisal. In order to address the question raised by dentistry research forum, first a search was conducted for systematic reviews on the topic. There was one systematic review retrieved comparing bonded amalgam restorations versus non-bonded amalgam restorations. However, there was no other systematic review identified assessing the effectiveness of dental liners under amalgam restorations in general. Therefore, a search was conducted for any randomised controlled trial (RCT) comparing use of a lining under amalgam restorations versus no lining or RCTs comparing differing lining materials under amalgam against each other. There were eight relevant RCTs identified. Due to the low quality, small sample sizes or lack of adequate reporting of the outcome data, the evidence is inadequate to claim or refute a difference in postoperative sensitivity between different dental liners. Further well-conducted RCTs are needed to answer this question. These RCTs would be preferably included and synthesised in a systematic review.

“…Despite these benefits, prosthodontics exposure to EB principles has not yet translated to improved evidence to guide care decisions, as demonstrated by the fact that after 20 years there remains limited prosthodontic authorship applied to Cochrane Reviews and insufficient evidence to support basic interventions common to the practice of prosthodontics. [29][30][31][32][33][34][35] Part of the current challenge relates to a lack of outcome standardization. 36 The future challenge relates to an unlikely acceleration of the research enterprise (research groups and funding) supporting oral health-related device and procedural care.…”

Prosthodontics has a rich history related to the principles embedded in evidence-based health care. This paper reviews the evidence-based prosthodontics activity over the past 3 decades. It also discusses the impact of health care reform on evidence-based medicine as it relates to broader context of care outcomes. Finally, the value associated with an Evidence Stewardship emphasis in prosthodontics is presented. This emphasis suggests that combining evidence from clinical trials with evidence from clinical practice environments best equips clinicians for the management of patients in the future. Adoption of a strategic Evidence Stewardship direction is an extended commitment to change that recognizes health care reform aims and seeks to be an accountable provider group in the broader health care arena. The vision to form a representative network of prosthodontic practitioners that augments a commitment to Cochrane "clinical trial" data demonstrates a responsibility to professional transparency about who we are, adds value for patients and oral health care providers, impacts teachers and students in dental education, and provides a measure of care accountability unique in dentistry.
