Nearly two years without the Overseas Registration Exam: what's next for internationally qualified dentists in the UK?
Article in British dental journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, internationally qualified dentists have been negatively impacted. This is due to the suspension of the Overseas Registration Exam (ORE) with no confirmation of any future dates. Similarly, UK dentistry was also affected by a significant increase in waiting lists all over the UK, with long waiting lists being present even before the pandemic. Due to these factors, many have highlighted and argued the need for internationally qualified dentists and urged the need to facilitate their registrations. Additionally, after Brexit, the government has introduced new immigration routes to attract overseas, highly educated human resources, so that they can contribute to different sectors in the UK. Considering these circumstances, there are a few alternatives to the ORE that could be introduced to facilitate the registration of internationally qualified dentists and to support NHS dental services. This paper suggests short- and long-term solutions to support the registration of internationally qualified dentists, considering that after two years, European-qualified dentists might need to undertake registration exams as well.
