Data extraction focused on re-intervention timing, indications, and complications. <b>Results</b>: Six systematic reviews, including 5896 subjects and 7913 successful coronectomies (not requiring immediate tooth extractions), were analyzed. The overall re-intervention rate was 4.45%, with timing ranging from six months to ten years (mean: 10.4 months). Root exposure (16.76%) was the primary cause, followed by infection (4.55%) and pain (2.84%). Root migration (12.20%) was common, while inferior alveolar nerve injury remained rare (0.76%). <b>Conclusions</b>: Coronectomy is a viable alternative in high-risk cases, with a low re-intervention rate. Root migration and exposure require long-term follow-up. Standardized imaging protocols and refined re-intervention criteria are needed."],"journal":["Journal of clinical medicine"],"pagination":["3877"],"full_dataset_link":["https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC12155643"],"repository":["biostudies-literature"],"pubmed_title":["Re-Intervention Rate, Timing, and Indications Following Coronectomy of the Mandibular Third Molar: A Systematic Review of Systematic Reviews."],"pmcid":["PMC12155643"],"pubmed_authors":["Acerra A","Allegretti G","Di Spirito F","Caggiano M","Leonetti G","Rizki I","Amato M"],"additional_accession":[]},"is_claimable":false,"name":"Re-Intervention Rate, Timing, and Indications Following Coronectomy of the Mandibular Third Molar: A Systematic Review of Systematic Reviews.","description":"<b>Background/Objectives</b>: Coronectomy is an alternative to complete third molar extraction to reduce the risk of inferior alveolar nerve injury.
