Open versus closed surgical exposure of canine teeth that are displaced in the roof of the mouth | Cochrane
Canines in the upper jaw usually erupt in the mouth between the age of 11 to 12 years. In 2% to 3% of the population these teeth fail to erupt into the mouth and become lodged in the roof of the mouth (palate), they are then referred to as 'palatally impacted'. Their impaction can cause damage to the roots of neighbouring teeth and the damage may be so severe that these neighbouring teeth are subsequently lost. The tissue around these impacted canine teeth may undergo cystic change. Also, impaction of these teeth can lead to aesthetic problems.

Surgical techniques for the removal of mandibular wisdom teeth | Cochrane
This review has been produced to assess the benefits and harms of the different surgical techniques in use for the removal of wisdom teeth from the lower jaw in order to reduce complications following surgery. The risks of surgery that are included in this review are: pain following surgery, swelling, infection, being unable to open the jaw fully (trismus), damage to the nerves supplying sensation to the tongue and skin of the lower lip and chin (lingual or inferior alveolar nerve damage) and fracture of the jaw.

Orthodontic treatment for prominent upper front teeth in children | Cochrane
This review, carried out by authors of the Cochrane Oral Health Group, has been produced to assess the effects of orthodontic treatment (treatment by dentists who specialise in the growth, function and position of teeth and jaws) for prominent upper front teeth in children. The review question looks at when this treatment is best provided, either initiated at seven to 11 years old (in one or two phases), and compares this to when the child's treatment is initiated in adolescence, aged 11 to 16 years (one-phase). The use of different types of braces was also assessed.

Interventions for the treatment of fractures of the mandibular condyle | Cochrane
Fractures of the condylar process of the mandible (lower jaw) are common. Two treatment options are available: either closed treatment (without surgery) or open reduction (involving surgery). Complications are associated with both treatment modalities. With a closed approach the complications include disturbances in the way the teeth meet, facial asymmetry, chronic pain and reduced mobility of the lower jaw. With an open approach the complications include a scar on the overlying skin and also the possibility of temporary paralysis of the nerve supplying some of the facial muscles involved in smiling and eye opening/closing. Currently there is much controversy regarding the most appropriate method for the management of fractured mandibular condyles. This review revealed that there is a lack of high quality evidence for the effectiveness of either approach, and that there is a need for further research to help clinicians and patients to make informed choices of treatment options.

Comparing single doses of oral analgesics for acute pain in adults after operation | Cochrane
Acute pain is often felt soon after injury. Most people who have surgery have moderate or severe pain afterwards. Painkillers (analgesics) are tested in people with pain, often following the removal of wisdom teeth. In all these studies the participants have to have at least moderate pain in order for there to be a sensitive measure of pain-relieving properties. The pain is usually treated with painkillers taken by mouth. Results can be applied to other forms of acute pain.

Oral painkillers available without prescription for acute pain | Cochrane
Acute pain is often felt soon after injury, and is of short duration. Most people who have surgery have moderate or severe pain afterwards. Painkillers (analgesics) are tested in people with pain, often following the removal of wisdom teeth. Study participants have to have at least moderate pain levels and the pain is usually treated with painkillers taken by mouth. This overview is useful mainly for acute pain lasting only a few days or weeks, and not for chronic pain lasting for many months. For this overview we have not included information from reviews on migraine, tension headache, or period pain.
