| Abstrakt: | Background: The removal of third molars (3Ms) is the most frequent surgical procedure in the field of Oral Surgery. As a result, the Spanish Society of Oral Surgery (SECIB) aims to create a Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) that offers evidence-based recommendations for optimal clinical practice. Specifically, the CPG will focus on providing guidance regarding the indications and criteria for clinical and radiological diagnosis of patients with 3Ms. Material and Methods: This CPG was developed by the SECIB, following the methodological guidelines described in the methodological manual for the "Development of Clinical Practice Guidelines in the National Health System". Several PICO questions related to the diagnosis and indications for the extraction of 3Ms were formulated. The leading experts carried out the evaluation of the evidence and the formulation of specific recommendations. Results: A total of 17 PICO questions were evaluated, addressing the indications, prognosis, diagnosis, and cost-benefit relationship of 3M extraction. Conclusions: The present Clinical Practice Guideline provides evidence-based recommendations on the diagnosis and indications for 3M extraction. These evidence-based recommendations can assist healthcare professionals and the general population in making informed decisions regarding the management of 3Ms. |
