The single discoloured tooth: vital and non-vital bleaching techniques.
Article in British dental journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
The single discoloured tooth poses an aesthetic dilemma. While several treatment approaches are available, bleaching offers a minimally invasive, aesthetic treatment modality. Predictability and success with bleaching stems from correct diagnosis, didactic treatment planning and the utilisation of appropriate techniques. This article aims to discuss the aetiologies of a single discoloured tooth and, through evaluation of the literature and discussion of clinical cases, explore the theory, safety and bleaching techniques available.
