Welcome

Cochrane Oral Health Group

The Cochrane Oral Health Review Group comprises an international network of healthcare professionals, researchers and consumers preparing, maintaining, and disseminating systematic reviews of randomised controlled trials in oral health. Oral health is broadly conceived to include the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of oral, dental and craniofacial diseases and disorders.


The Oral Health Group is one of 52 review groups around the world belonging to The Cochrane Collaboration: an international non-profit and independent organisation, providing up-to-date information about the effects of health care.

Oral Health Group reviews and protocols are published on the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (CDSR) on The Cochrane Library, a regularly updated collection of evidence-based healthcare databases available on DVD-ROM and on the Internet.

The most recent issue of the Cochrane Library was Issue 1, released in January 2012.

Within it, COHG published the following:

Review Update - New search / conclusions not changed
Orthodontic treatment for deep bite and retroclined upper front teeth in children.
Millett DT, Cunningham S, O'Brien KD, Benson PE, de Oliveira CM.

Interventions for replacing missing teeth: treatment of peri‐implantitis.
Esposito M, Grusovin MG, Worthington HV.

The 2010 Impact Factor for the CDSR is 6.186, consequently, the CDSR is now ranked in the top 10 of the 151 in the Medicine, General & Internal category.

Activities of the Group are co-ordinated by its Editorial Base, located within the School of Dentistry, The University of Manchester, United Kingdom.
