OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of different diagnostic variables measured on panoramic radiographs (PAN) to predict spontaneous eruption of palatally displaced canine (PDC) after interceptive extraction in late mixed dentition. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Digital databases (MEDLINE, CENTRAL (Cochrane), Scopus, clinicaltrials.gov, ISRCTN registry) and hand searches were performed up to March 2020. Both randomized and non-randomized controlled trials were considered for the review. Study selection, data extraction, risk of bias assessment (RoB2.0 and ROBINS-I), and the certainty of evidence evaluation (GRADE) were performed according to Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. The random-effects method for quantitative synthesis of dichotomous as well as continuous data was used. RESULTS: Out of 767 retrieved records, 4 controlled trials fulfilled the eligibility criteria and were included in the review. Studies were assessed at low risk of bias except one. Overall certainty was strong to moderate. PDCs in distal sectors (RR: 1.621; 95%CI: 1.259 to 2.086; P<0.001) and alpha-angle <30° (SMD: -1.350; 95%CI: 1.924 to -0.776; P<0.001) were significantly benefited from interceptive extraction. However, Vertical distance of PDC cusp tip from occlusal plane had statistically insignificant (p: 0.855) roll on eruption prediction. CONCLUSION: Interceptive extraction at a younger age, initial horizontal localization (sector position), and alpha-angle (initial mesial inclination) are the most important variables predicting the spontaneous eruption of palatally displaced canines. Findings of this review can be utilized to make evidence-based decisions for managing PDCs with diverse sectors and mesial inclinations. However, well-designed clinical trials are recommended to strengthen the evidence.
