Nankali Post-system

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

System demonstrated does not appear to meet standards of notability. Article puts forth a concept that is largely if not completely rejected -- restoring teeth that exhibit vertical/oblique fractures that extend onto the root surface. Sources are terrible -- they consist of Dr. Nankali, the inventor and article creator, promoting his own invention, and the few minor awards it has won. Nothing -- not intracoronal nor extracoronal restorations, not endodontic therapy, not implant dentistry -- can claim 100% success; the fact that it states this in the article makes it read more like an infomercial than anything else. Primary intra-article links direct to pages written in a foreign language, dubious support if that's all that can be mustered. Three great diagrams, but they probably come from the patent application/master's thesis, so I'd expect them to be wonderful; the photo, on the other hand, looks like a still shot from a video. Sources are 2/4 from the inventor/article creator and references are 6/10 from him as well, and there is nothing published in a well respected, international journal of endodontics, prosthodontics or general dentistry. Seems like complete self-promotion, not to mention how poorly written it is, suggesting you it was put together as swiftly as possible without much thought.
