Title
Effect of xylitol-containing products on dental caries: A systematic review and network meta-analysis
Review Question
Can xylitol-containing products prevent dental caries?
Study Type Included
Parallel-design Randomized clinical trial (RCT)
Condition Being Studied
Based on WHO, dental caries is one of the most prevalent diseases in the world, and described as a biofilm-mediated, diet modulated, multifactorial, non-communicable, dynamic disease resulting in net mineral loss of dental hard tissues according to a 2020 ORCA consensus statement. It is determined by biological, behavioral, psychosocial, and environmental factors; consequently, a caries lesion develops as a result of this process. However, several bacteria have been involved in the caries process, and Streptococcus mutants have been identified as the primary pathogen. Xylitol is a natural sugar alcohol but is not fermented by oral microbes; therefore, is considered non-acidogenic and has a potential anticaries impact.
Participant
Healthy individuals irrespective of age and sex
Animal
Human Disease Modelled
Intervention
Xylitol-containing products (i.e. products used xylitol as natural sweetener such as candies, chewing gum, candy, mouthwash, and toothpaste)
Comparator Control
Any control intervention (i.e. control, placebo, other sugar alcohols such as sucrose, sorbitol, erythritol, sorbitol, and other interventions such as fluoride, etc.)
Main Outcome
1- Primary outcome: Caries progression 2- Secondary outcome: Salivary/plaque levels of cariogenic pathogen (Streptococcus mutans) Measures of effect 1- Primary outcome: The number of new carious lesions compared with baseline measured by caries indices as DMFT/S, dmft/s, ICDAS, etc. 2- Secondary outcome: The total values of Colony Forming Unit (CFU) in the last follow-up compared with baseline values.
Outcome Measure
Additional Outcome
If information on the following is available, we will include for further analysis: 1- Salivary/plaque pH 2- Plaque quantification (using plaque index) Measures of effect By comparing the baseline values to the effects of the endpoint
Study Method
Network meta-analysis, Prevention, Systematic review
