1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Technology has revolutionized the way dentists are able to treat their patients. These technological advances have paved the way for the creation of virtual patient models utilizing these 3-dimensional intra-oral patient models, cone bean computer tomography (CBCT) radiograph scans, extraoral 3-dimensional scans, and jaw motion tracings to create a patient-specific model. These models are advantageous in planning surgical treatments by providing 3-dimensional views of vital anatomical structures to accurately identify the location, size, and shape of a structure or defect in order to plan accordingly. Virtual augmentation of either hard tissue (bone) and/or soft tissue (i.e., gingiva) can also be accomplished.Technology has allowed the capture of the dynamic motions of the jaw and combined them with the virtual patient to develop permanent restorations in harmony with the patient's orofacial complex. With the introduction of new technology in the realm of digital dentistry, patient care is being brought to a new and higher level. This creates a level of more optimal care that a dentist can deliver to patients.
