The objective of the present systematic review was to assess the outcomes of Hall technique (HT) on primary carious molars and compared it with the conventional dental restorations.
The systematic review was registered with Prospero registry (CRD42015020445) to answer the following research question: Is HT a better restorative option compared to other techniques for restoration of carious primary molars? In addition to exploring various health sciences databases, hand search was also done using following key terms in different permutations: (Hall technique OR Hall's technique OR preformed metal crown OR stainless steel crown) AND (caries OR carious molar OR deciduous tooth OR baby tooth OR milk tooth OR primary tooth). The outcome of interest was success of the restoration achieved with either method.
Five studies were included (two RCTs, one quasi-experimental trial, and two retrospective). A total of 1775 teeth were assessed, of which 1325 teeth were restored using HT. The retrospective studies showed no difference between HT and other methods whereas the RCTs and quasi-experimental favored HT over other treatment modalities. Meta-analysis significantly favored HT over conventional restorations [risk ratio 5.55 (3.31-9.30)] ( value ≤ 0.001).
HT appeared demonstrated higher success and significantly outperformed the conventional restorations.

本系统评价的目的是评估霍尔技术（HT）用于治疗乳牙龋的效果，并将其与传统牙科修复方法进行比较。
该系统评价已在国际前瞻性系统评价注册库（CRD42015020445）登记，以回答以下研究问题：与其他治疗乳牙龋的技术相比，HT是否是更好的修复选择？除了检索各种健康科学数据库外，还使用以下关键词的不同排列组合进行了手工检索：（霍尔技术或霍尔氏技术或预成金属冠或不锈钢冠）和（龋或龋磨牙或乳牙或乳齿或乳牙或恒牙）。感兴趣的结果是两种方法实现修复的成功率。
纳入五项研究（两项随机对照试验、一项半实验性试验和两项回顾性研究）。共评估了1775颗牙齿，其中1325颗牙齿采用HT修复。回顾性研究表明HT与其他方法之间无差异，而随机对照试验和半实验性试验则支持HT优于其他治疗方式。荟萃分析显著支持HT优于传统修复方法[风险比5.55（3.31 - 9.30）]（P值≤0.001）。
HT显示出更高的成功率，明显优于传统修复方法。
