| Popis | Background: Subclinical changes in response to different types of toothbrushes represent a challenging knowledge gap in the context of self-administered oral hygiene regimes; therefore, this systematic review will be the first to evaluate the oral microbiome response to powered versus manual toothbrushes. Methods: We will conduct a systematic review using the Cochrane Handbook’s guidelines and will adhere to a standardized reporting format: Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). A comprehensive search strategy will be conducted in the following databases for published studies: Ovid MEDLINE(R), EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Scopus, ProQuest Central, ProQuest Dissertations Theses Global, Bibliographia Medica Cechoslovaca, and Dentistry Oral Sciences Source. Following a two-level screening process, data including the full reference, objectives, target population, description of the intervention and control intervention, outcome measures, design, length of the post-intervention follow-up period, and the study results will be extracted, synthesized, and reported. Risk of bias and quality of the studies will also be assessed. Discussion: No primary data collection will be undertaken; therefore, no formal ethical assessment is required. The results of this systematic review and meta-analysis will be published in a peer-reviewed journal. Registration: The protocol has been registered with the PROSPERO International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (CRD42020153557) since April 28th, 2020. |
