Demystifying Dens Invaginatus: Suggested Modification of the Classification based on a Comprehensive Case Series.
Article in European endodontic journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Dens invaginatus (DI) is one of the most common developmental anomalies observed in maxillary lateral incisors. An early diagnosis requires thorough clinical knowledge, advanced radiographic evaluation as well as the use of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and dental operating microscope (DOM), dictates the successful endodontic management of such teeth. A total of 7 cases with (DI) in maxillary lateral incisors were collected from dental practitioners worldwide, analysed and reported in the present case series. Our aim was to analyse and understand the various morphological patterns of DI in maxillary lateral incisors with their varied treatment protocols employed worldwide. This article illustrates the aberrant morphological patterns and the diverse treatment protocols followed by the clinicians worldwide. The use of biomaterials enhances post-operative healing. Further, a modification in the existing classification has been proposed in this report which would enable the clinicians to easily diagnose, categorise and effectively manage DI. The different treatment protocols employed for the management of DI has been discussed and the use of CBCT and DOM in identifying and managing the anatomical variation of DI were emphasised.
