Fig. 3

Forest plot of orthodontic root resorption after endodontic treatment and vital pulp teeth. The results of the literature heterogeneity test showed large heterogeneity between studies, so a random effects model was used for analysis. The results of the main effect test showed that orthodontic root resorption of root-filled teeth was lower than that of vital pulp teeth. SD, standard deviation; IV, information value; 95% CI, 95% confidence interval
