To evaluate and synthesize the evidence from the individual reviews that evaluated the efficacy of PDT therapy in root canal disinfection by undertaking an umbrella review. The protocol of the review was registered in the PROSPERO database under number CRD42021214056. The literature search was conducted using the following electronic databases: PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, BVS, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Embase, and Epistemonikos, from inception to July 2021. Systematic reviews that evaluated the efficacy of PDT for root canal disinfection were included. Two authors independently performed a literature search, data extraction, and quality assessment of the included studies. Any disagreements were resolved by a third reviewer. The quality of the reviews was assessed using the AMSTAR 2 tool and the final categorization of each systematic reviews was classified as of "high," "moderate," "low," or "critically low" quality. Six systematic reviews were included in the current umbrella review and all of them were graded as critically low quality. From the critically low-quality evidence available, this umbrella review showed that the efficacy of PDT in root canal disinfection remains yet undetermined.
